I'll give you some of that. I said the same things about jordan for years now. He reached on defense, rebounded over the back, leaned in to fouls after pump fakes, never got travelling called, pushed off on offense, etc. But if you can take inventory of what you can get away with - why not do it? Jordan did it his whole career (as does every veteran in the nba) and extended what he could get away with every year (example.. vs. the Jazz when he pushed bryon russell off at the top of the key - and I hate the Jazz)

You have to change your game just for Duke just as you had to to beat jordan, or dean smith (four corners), Wilt Chamberlain (3 second rule), John Wooden (damn near every rule at the time that was instituted into college basketball was either at his request or at the request of his opponents).

people know it's coming, but sooner or later you have to stop it.
