Duke vs. BC

I saw some of the game; saw the play we are talking about and don't have a problem with the specific call or officiating during the game.

mrkleen - At any level of play, the game of basketball is really about getting the play into the paint (via dribble, pass, or even a rebound). The team that gets the ball into the paint the most will win about 80% of the time. The team that does that gets higher percentage shots and more FT attempts than its' opponent. THAT is why DUKE gets more FT attempts - NOT because officials favor them.

If you go back and watch the entire BC vs DUKE game, you will probably see that DUKE has more possessions where they get the ball into the paint than BC. Not all teams foul the same amount. Your complaints are exactly like a coach yelling "my guys are getting killed" - yet the coach can't cite a specific play. It's easy to complain about stat-sheet numbers, but it's a cop-out.
