I didn't really mind the dunk as much as Harrell taunting and jawing the fans/players after he slammed it down. That was bush league

[couch 'em]

I am happy our crowd is rowdy enough to elicit a response. The dunk was a bit much but not that big a deal. Move on. Return the favor.

I agree, move on. The dunk is not that big of a deal.

Seems to be no problem with classless crowds but major problem with a person that reacts to a classless crowd jesture or saying. If a crowd does something classless to get under a player's skin and that is what the crowd is trying to do they why cry about it when the action achieves the desired result?

Ok Rebel let's just go ahead and throw sportsmanship out the window. Seems to me you are saying all is fair in love an war. When does anyone take the high road anymore? If the winners can't take it, who is left?

No, I am not saying all is fair in love and war. But we are jumping on this kid and we did the same thing. Usually you try to straighten things out at your house before you try to straighten things out at someone else's house. I didn't hear you say anything about out fans taking the high road nor about the tweets that were sent to Harrell. Move on.

I did not mention the tweets that were sent to Harrell. I was not aware of them. Are you saying the tweets took place before the dunk and that Harrell read them during the game? Not sure what your point is about the tweets. Other than that they are terrible. That I do agree.

I don't think he's saying that, but honestly, I think a dunk in the heat of the moment in that situation (which Pitino did not ask his players to do, in fact, he told them to hold the ball and dribble out the clock, which they did until Sterling's steal) is less "classless" than pre-meditated classlessness by the crowd on the Applebee's crap. Again, if the crowd has decided (against LB's specific request) that anything is fair game, we have no room to really complain here. Maybe Eric Snow and LB do coach to coach, but not any of the fans.

smusportspage, what about our fans? Let's start with our home first.

Yes, even at Applebee's we have choices. We can choose to take the high road or we can choose to take the low road. I guess we can all agree that one bad act does not deserve another? Stop the madness. Can't we all just love one another? Kum By Ya?

Furthermore we all know if roles waste reversed or board would look just like theirs and vice versa

What was chanted about the Applebee's incident? Funny that Pitino chose to take a dig at our school's religious affiliation when he committed adultery. I wouldn't have taunted him about his infidelity, but I also would not have brought that up in an interview on national tv. Lesson of the day: don't throw stones.

I don't think he was referring to the Applebee's thing. In the post game interview it sounded as if he was referring to the language that was used but I could be wrong.

Hey people remember Memphis stealing against our walkons and getting a dunk when we were up by 23. It was not even mentioned afterwards and our guys were just trying to run out the clock. We didn't try to stick it to them, our guys just finished the game.

Glad Snow stuck up for our guys.

I guess we'll see what happens at their place in front of their fans. Beat Memphis.
