Duke got by its previous two opponents when last second shots skipped off the rim, so for them to lose by one measly point was a bit of justice from the basketball gods.

But let me say this: I went over to ESPN and apparently Stephen A. Smith, resident curmudgeon, has called Duke's season a failure because of this loss. No. Just no, SAS. There's a clip of his comments on the ESPN front page.
