Grayson Allen is a dirty player...and a punk!

Bazza · Mar 12, 2018

Should have been kicked out of the game for this latest one, instead of just a flagrant 1.

The players he's tripping could very easily injure their self - especially a wrist injury - that could effect their career - to some degree if not more.

Coach K. is a weasel himself for not yanking the punk....

That might not get called if it's any other player. Because it was Grayson Allen, it was reviewed.

Have not seen that particular play but Bazza is not wrong. He is a punk.

I saw it live. I thought it was a punk move but not worthy of a flagrant 1. “Common foul” sure.

when he gets to the Association, someone will fix this problem

Disappointed Coach K would allow this. Kid needs to be taken out back and disciplined (or should have when he was young).

I have always hated Duke. I hope they lose every game they play.

He allowed Laettner too. Who else ?

I'd probably root for Pearl and Aubie against the Dookies. Gotta beat all 8 of them out on the court.

He shouldn't be allowed to play. He's not even guilty of physical play, he's just trying to hurt people.

Taken in isolation, yes, this is just a common foul. However, Grayson Allen is WELL known for unnecessarily aggressive play to the point of injuring other players. You simply cannot allow him to play this way, or you WILL have a bench clearing brawl if not an injured player. This kind of cheapshot is NOT what basketball is about.

I saw it live and I thought then that it was the worst excuse of officiating I've ever seen. After the hip check, the officials let UNC drive the length of the floor and score, then they blow it dead to review the play. They obviously saw it happen because they blew the play dead immediately after the ball went through the hoop. Then after reviewing the play they determined it's worthy of a flagrant. It most certainly was a common foul which means the officials should have blown it dead on the spot. I could have even tolerated a flagrant call had they called it a common foul then reviewed it. However, you can't convince me that a foul like that is flagrant if it's not even obvious enough to call a live ball foul.

As far as refereeing a reputation, you can’t do that. Call it even & fair. If the player does something worthy of a flagrant call it. He’ll get the message. The refs absolutely botched this call.

But dude is habitual. I bet if you went back in every game, you could find a trip or hip check like this. Honestly can't believe court justice hasn't caught up with him.

A lot of players in the NBA do what he does on every other play. Chris Paul does this sort of thing very often. John Stockton was the master of this sort of play. The difference is those guys are and were good at not getting caught.

Now with thousands of cameras in every venue, nothing gets missed anymore

Yeah, a lot of stuff like that used to be called gamesmanship. There is a difference, though, between trying to gain an advantage and trying to hurt someone. Gaining every advantage possible is good; trying to hurt people is being a punk and usually catches up with a guy when others get an opportunity.

In previous years, yes. This year- no. He’s cleaned up his “act” quite a bit.
