Duke's Allen at it again...

Wow, that is really blatant. I can't believe he would do that so obviously again. Was he called for it? If so, what was the penalty?
Don't expect Rat face to do anything about it. Hopefully there are more Jaylen Johnsons out there for this punk.
So foul wasn't called? He better stay atDuke. He try that bush league BS in the pro's somebody will knock him out. Could you imigine him doing that to a guy like Zach Randolph

Allen is pure trash as a player. He might be the nicest person you'll ever want to meet off the court (seriously I doubt it but since I don't know him, I have to say it) but that is bush league punk play. He seriously needs an attitude adjustment, and there is none better than a right uppercut to his ugly ass chin.
Ok so he didn't trip an official like the Ok state kid who was suspended 4 games but we know this is at least his 2nd offense at tripping an opposing player. I don't expect Duke to do anything because they are crying about how many players they have now. If the ACC had any guts they would at least issue a reprimand.
The ACC is reviewing this. Finally.

I like what Kyle Tucker tweeted out.
"Evidence is mounting that Grayson Allen is a punk."
Yep.

Yep.
The downside to this is they suspend Allen for the UNC game and hurts their chances of pinning another loss on the Tarheels. I don't believe Duke has a chance of the ACC regular season title and they sure as heck won't suspend him for the tournament.
Welcome to the ACC Tobacco Road party gentlemen. I really don't see why Duke gets away with anything, while any other players would be ejected. Please don't expect ESPN to say much. As Roy Williams stated, "They are an ACC partner." It helps the head of ESPN is a UNC grad. ESPN is quick to illustrate other programs faults, but never touches UNC (or Duke)...unless someone is pictured with a smoking gun in their hand. JMHO.
If I was the guy from FSU I would have got up and clocked him. That was total BS considering the game was already out of reach. He did it strictly as a punk move.
And for the 2nd time in a row after an Allen tripping not one reporter had the guts to even ask Saint Krzyzewski about it after the game.
You would think it would be a worthy question about a kid that's going to end up hurting someone or getting himself knocked out.

When he tripped Ray, Ray was getting towards top speed. Honestly, the injury possibilities in tripping a 6' 10" kid who is running all out are more than for other, more compact, humans.
He needs some time off to reflect on what a dikhead he has become at our sport. He is embarrassing an entire conference.

Ok, so coach K clearly said after our game that Allen acted out of frustration from the way he (Allen) is treated, not just by the Cards but throughout the ACC. So, can't say coach K is not aware of it but has done nothing to deter Allen's behavior. I guess he is a strict disciplinarian unless it might cost your team some games.
I've got news for you - if you're a guard that tries to get to the rim a lot, teams are going to get physical with you - particularly if you have success in getting to the rim. It's part of basketball. FSU physical with him last night and forced him into a 7-20 shooting night - I'm sure frustrating him.
Tough - deal with it in a sportsmanlike manner.

More media picking up on it.
