Respect: JJ Redick

[Talib Scottie]

Okay, first off, Duke is my least favorite NC team and honestly I hated this guy because he single handedly defeated NC State on many occasions, but I respect him.

He works hard, he's a good kid and he took more shit in his career then anyone else. He is definitely the second most hated ACC player of the past few years (Julius Hodge deserved most of his... haha). Still, he never lost his head and just played good basketball.

I wish the kid luck in the NBA, as he will most likely leave a mark, maybe not as a superstar, but regardless he's going to work hard and deserves every ounce of success he achieves.

[RedWineSheets]

yes

[Talib Scottie]

Drew or any staffer, close this if you see it necessary... I don't see this thread being pretty.

[bigmike]

this is great and all. and i agree with what you said. but honestly, another duke related thread? This is bordering ridiculous.

Great college basketball player and seems like a class act. I respect him

[Vincewithouthee]

Yeah I agree with you. He gets way too much shit. I was rooting for Duke to win after Pitt lost, but oh well. Go UCLA. :[

[fire on my lips]

as for most hated, my personal list (for the last four years) is redick, paul then hodges. I like and respect hodges a lot more then redick. I still intensely dislike jj redick.

Yeah but the other 14 are hate threads

[bigmike]

Yeah but the other 14 are hate threads
and there's too many of them. are we going to have to put two sticky threads "Pro Duke" and "Fuck Duke"?

Who needs spell check when you have Derek?

Maybe next year.

I hope JJ somehow ends up a Pacer, I really like JJ as a player and a person, one of the best college basketball players in my time.

that'd be a good fit.

whoever he goes to though, they better have a great inside game.

[Talib Scottie]

Also, at least my thread is somewhat thought out as opposed to Duke got Pwnt and pull against Duke threads.

[GoWaitInTheCar]

I am gonna have to agree with everything you said.

I wish him the best.

Yeah, really.

It's a good thread and a good cause.

[mikeford]

my only regret is not watching this game because he probably cried after they choked it away.

[CallMeChief]

I definitely agree with that. He just went out and played his game, definitely a class act. I'd love to see him succeed in the NBA. I'll admit i didnt like him for a while at the beginning, but i just started watching him and realized he takes alot of crap that isnt really merited. and i do agree with this thread being justified, because if there was a general duke thread something like this would get buried in stupid duke related pictures and "im so glad they're finally done" remarks.

[Caleb Cattivera]

i look forward to seeing him being a successful role player in the nba.

[Johnny_G]

as do i

[wessa]

i wish him the best, the guy gave it his all every time on the court.
can't wait to see him win three point contests for years to come.

[hockey0001]

The first thing that i am going to say is that i hate JJ Reddick. But I hope he has a great career in the NBA. He is a really talented shooter and i wish the best for him. The only reason that i hated him is that he played for Duke.

[RedWineSheets]

The reason I like Redick so much is because he is a classy player, when hes in the NBA youll never see him running into the stands to attack fans and starting riots.

Haha... okay JJ is a good kid but you can compare anyone to Ron Artest and they'd look like a saint.

Plus I don't think anyone has ever hit JJ with a beer after being involved in an altercation. I still think the fans are to blame for that and I don't even like Artest.
