OT: What should happen to Grayson Allen?
In Duke's game gainst Florida State, Grayson Allen tripped Xavier Rathan-Mayes, and it looked like it was purposeful. This is the second time Allen has tripped a player this season.
When a player for Oregon State tripped a referee he recieved a four-game suspension. When Diamond Stone tackled a player, Maryland gave him a one game suspension.
But the ACC isn't giving Allen a suspension, and it doesn't seem like Duke is going to give him one either. Should he have gotten a suspension, or is it just the ACC not wanting to give him a suspension because he playes at Duke?

Extra running? What did they do to deserve extra running to get better?

But if you look at your examples, he didn't rise to either of those levels. Maybe have him come of the bench? He deserved a T but that has passed. 24 hour sports news makes mountains out of nothing. You can't really exicute him just because Christian Latner was a dick too.

No, it really isn't how basketball used to be played. What the hell gave you the idea that players used to just run around tripping each other?

Im a UNC fan and I have nothing but respect for Duke as a program. But they make it so easy for people to hate them. There's no question he should be suspended for at least 1 game. He also leads his team in technical fouls. But I guess UNC and Lville have put the ACC through enough, so there's no room for a Duke black eye.

For some reason, I don't hear the word "thug" being thrown around.

If Allen continues on this trajectory, maybe one day ESPN will make a documentary about how everyone thinks he's a huge douchebag.

The incident itself is not racial, but there is a racial element to our reactions. We may be willing to call this guy "dirty", but we typically reserve the word "thug" for Blacks. In my opinon, the word "thug" has evolved into a racial slur. We need to change that.

impact of these things is any less because it doesn't apply to a minority of people.

I think and thought he was a thug and saw it in comments elsewhere. Weak argument that's trying to bring racism into this. SMH

who were a bands of criminals in India for hundreds of years before being extirpated by the British. That was perhaps the single positive achievement of the British in India.

One kick. Allen just has to stand there and take it.

You do know that just because you've cleared the 100 point threshold and now CAN create threads doesnt mean you HAVE to create threads. I know it can be confusing but trust me - you can take an hour or two break from thread creation and you won't lose your thread creation rights.

The last Grayson I knew was a great guy. He died in 1989. Perhaps Mable will make a comeback as well.

punk white kid pulling that stuff on the court where he knows he's safe. He'd never do that outside the arena. He should probably get 1-2 games off for that one

I can see why we have sports teams named after them. Murder, plunder, blood eagles...that sounds like a culture we all ought to admire.
