Who is working the Duke / UNC game?

[rgncjn]

I missed the tip, and have not been able to see any close ups on the officials. Who has the game tonight??

Teddy Valentine is one of them. I recognize the other Black official but I do not know his name. I do not know who the 3rd official is.

Interesting couple of sequences at about the 14:00 or 15:00 minute mark in the 2nd half.

Trap along the frontcourt sideline in front of the lead. He gives a non-standard signal to indicate that the player with the ball was bobbling the ball (I think to show NC coach that there was no control for a travel). As soon as he does that, the T comes in with a travel Coach K was not happy.

Then on the other end, there was no lead. Then into the picture comes a very late lead. I think they had two C's and one T for a few seconds. Maybe the L stopped to talk to Coach K on his way down? Couldn't see the entire F/C so it was hard to tell what happened.

They will probably have a conversation tonight. I am sure an evaluator is there.

What in the world was C coming over and blowing this when L said he was "bobbling" the ball and cound not travel? Coach K had every right to be mad on this play.....mad at Greenwood.

First of all this is why you do not give signals like the "bobble." Also for all you know, the official had a travel before the bobble or had a clear look at the travel before the L.
