Mike Honcho 4,035 Posted March 27, 2016 What an azz, acts like a sore loser and lectures another teams player. Then when asked about it after Brooks(Oregon player) mentions it, he throws the kid under the bus and says he never said that. Then after getting caught on camera(with audio), he finally says he "reacted incorrectly". Hey K, how about you react correctly and instead of apologizing to the Oregon Coach, you apologize Dillon Brooks, you know the kid you called a liar. http://nypost.com/2016/03/26/coach-k-creates-laughable-euphemism-for-lying-in-apology/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TimmySmith 2,782 Posted March 27, 2016 After what he did to Rasheed Sulaimon, I think any talk about him being a player's guy is a farce. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ZeroTolerance 582 Posted March 27, 2016 I'm sure he's a gigantic d1ck but this story seems way overblown. Who cares? That stuff should stay on the court. The irony is that he is trying to tell players on another team how to behave when the kids on his own team are routinely punks. Grayson Allen has 'celebrated' in much worse ways, not to mention repeatedly intentionally tripping opponents and being the latest in a long line of Coach K kids to flop like they are in the Premier League. To recap: lies about an on-court exchange, when evidence comes out 'apologizes' without ever actually admitting he flat out lied, is a massive hypocrit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JTB 52 Posted March 27, 2016 A guy who is talked about as a God, was caught flat out lying. I think is shameful, and this should be a bigger deal than it is. Based on coach K's power and credibility one can only assume he implied Dillon Brooks was an effing liar. Since the media is in the business of destroying athletes for every little thing, it's time this guy gets his ass whooped too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Almost every year Duke has a player that people just love to hate. And often its because they are gigantic pricks. Great coach, but he is bitching about things that his teams have always done.

Patriotsfatboy1 1,432 Posted March 28, 2016 Is it possible that he told Brooks that he was "better than that", but did not want it in the press? Then, when it comes out, he says that he was wrong?

I don't get why everyone has their panties in a bunch over a guy who said that he was wrong. Here was the timeline: Brooks interviewed, says K told him that he was too good to be celebrating like that. Coach K interviewed, someone tells him that Brooks said he told him that. Coach K said that never happened, told the reporter he could write what Brooks said or whatever. Video comes out that clearly shows the conversation. Coach K says he "reacted incorrectly" to the reporter. He basically told the reporters that Brooks made sh*t up, then when video evidence became available proving otherwise "apologizes" without actually admitting that he lied.

That seems like a lot of interpretation. My guess is that he thought the discussion was private and, when it wasn't, he said to go with what the kid said. I could absolutely see a coach like Coach K saying that a kid is too good for something like that and I don't think it is that out of line. If I am coaching against him, then I wouldn't have a problem with him saying that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZeroTolerance 582 Posted March 28, 2016 That seems like a lot of interpretation. Brooks hit a 3-pointer as the shot clock wound down late in Oregon's 82-68 win over the Blue Devils. Brooks, who celebrated after he made the shot, said Krzyzewski told him after the game that he's "too good of a player to be showing off in the end." Brooks said he told the coach that he was right. "I didn't say that," Krzyzewski told reporters when asked about the exchange after the game Thursday. "You can say whatever you want. Dillon Brooks is a hell of a player. I said, 'You're a terrific player.' And you can take whatever he said and then go with it, all right?" Audio of the exchange between Brooks and Krzyzewski from the CBS broadcast was posted on multiple websites Friday night, and it confirmed the Ducks player's account: "You're too good of a player to do that," Krzyzewski said. "I'm sorry, Coach," Brooks said. "You're too good of a player," Krzyzewski said. "In the postgame press conference, I reacted incorrectly to a reporter's question about my comment to Dillon."

Patriotsfatboy1 1,432 Posted March 28, 2016 The interpretation is based on you saying that he said that Brooks made sh!t up. As I stated, he thought it was a coach/player conversation. If I was the Oregon coach, I would have my panties in a bunch. ETA: what more do you want out of Coach K? He said he was wrong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jerryskids 5,206 Posted March 28, 2016 "You're too good of a player to do that," Krzyzewski said. "I'm sorry, Coach," Brooks said. "You're too good of a player," Krzyzewski said. I think it sucks that Coach K was so butt hurt that he needed to steal the thunder from this kid. They are from Oregon, not a perennial basketball powerhouse, and they just beat Duke! And in the handshake line the legendary Coach K shakes his hand and says this shiot, not once but twice? Fock that noise. I wish Brooks said "I'm sorry we biotch-slapped your team, Coach."

cyclone24 1,814 Posted March 28, 2016 Oh my God this is such a non-issue. Most times you see the opposing coach apologize to Coach K or whoever their player did that on.

I'm not a Duke fan nor do I hate them but I took it more as in he was trying to teach the kid. Didn't appear to me he was chewing the kid out by any means.

BS---it was said on the court in front of multiple cameras, this wasn't a secret conversation with privileged information. It was high and mighty coach deciding to lecture ANOTHER coach's player...all the while not noticingh his little biatch player Grayson was throwing a tantrum and not shaking hands. It wasn't his place to do it, and it for Mr. Holy Roller, it sure wasn't right to imply that Brooks lied about the what was said. If the was Calipari, they would be running him out of the sport right now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
