But it's also smart, helps them win and within the rules until there's a consensus to change them. Same with flopping. It's annoying, but how can you be outraged or say it's unfair? The other guys can copy them if they want.

Wisconsin played that way when they were not so good. I agree it is frustrating to watch them play a team I like (I like 1 team), but this year they did move away from that since they had players that can move. The typical Wisconsin team is a bunch of slow white guys.
They do not turn the ball over. They do not miss free throws. And they do not get fouls called on them. You can speculate why- but T's point is not that Duke doesn't get fouls called, they do. It's just the other teams get way more called. Wisconsin plays in a way where fouls on them are limited. Duke plays such that fouls on the opponents are maximized. Big dif.
