Kyle Filipowski Is An Absolute Warrior For Playing In Tonight's Game Despite Getting Run Over By Fans During Last Week's Court Storming
Listen, I know it is easy to make fun of Duke players, but why wouldn't he play tonight? It happened 4 days ago. The amount of time people roll an ankle and play the next day happens all the time in basketball. This man was trampled and assaulted by hundreds of fans, but people are freaking out that he isn't seriously hurt.
We should all be relieved he's okay. It is sad to see fans of other teams want players to get hurt by fans. Listen do I think fans should be arrested on the spot when they storm? No that is absolutely outrageous. But when Wake Forest fans storm the court with .08 seconds left (Duke should have gotten the ball and and 2 free throws as that is a technical foul but nobody is talking about that) and when you have no time to get off the court it is going to be a disaster.
It is pretty simple to just hold the kids back for 5 seconds to let the losing team run off the court. That is all you have to do, just give some of the players time to get off the court. I just think we need to give credit to Flip for getting through this injury and making sure he is there for his team.
