Sweep
In other news, get out the broom: we swept Duke.
As for the bad craziness of the conclusion of the game, the ejection was unfair (and the suspension is even more unfair). Yes, Gerald Henderson was recklessly violent in defending Hansbrough. Yes, that kind of crap could really get Hansbrough hurt. The trouble is that ACC refs have been allowing vicious, illegal tactics to defend against him all season. It was only a matter of time before he got hurt (the actual timing of his injury was simply another example of the Great Magnet's sense of humor). The refs should be suspended for allowing defenses against him up to but not quite including the use of tasers. Henderson should not be made an example to cover for poor refing all season. Coach K's reaction may have been idiotic, but it is also beside the point.
