"The team that should have won tonight, won."

Now, admittedly, Duke Coach Mike Krzyzewski was a little hard up for things to say after his team massacred Harvard, 118-65, on Saturday.

But, really, Coach.

Duke? A more talented team? Gee, thanks for letting us know.

For the top-ranked team in the country, Duke did not show a lot of class while walloping the Crimson.

Besides Krzyzewski's demonstration of his absolute grasp of the obvious, his post-game quotes did not include any memtion of the effort put forth by the valiant Crimson athletes down there in Durham, N.C.

Instead, he talked about himself. His team. His defense. How the game was almost a practice for the Blue Devils.

"We tried to work a little more on our half-court offense in the second half, hitting our big men, which we weren't doing in the first half," Krzyzewski said.

Couldn't get the ball inside at will? My nose bleeds for you, Coach.

It wouldn't be so bad if he had at least said the Crimson players had played hard. But not even that.

Adding insults to injury were the comments of the play-by-play reporter. The official release of the Duke sports information department had lines like these:

"T. Hill Monster DUNK a-Hurley"

"T. Hill DUNK (authority) a-Laettner"

"Clark (another) In-Your-Face DUNK"

That was in Matt McClain's face, by the way. It was his fifth personal foul, with 22 seconds left to play.
