Coach K snubs Syracuse players in handshake line (Video)
Duke lost a thriller to Syracuse Monday night, marking the first time the Blue Devils have lost three consecutive games since 2007. Mike Krzyzewski was angry over something when the final whistle blew, and he appeared to take it out on his opponents.
Coach K felt that Duke guard Matt Jones was fouled on his last-second heave from beyond half court, and he may have had a case:

The Blue Deviles were trailing 64-62, so Jones would have gone to the line with a chance to win the game if the officials called a foul. When the players and coaches went to shake hands, it looked like Krzyzewski shook the hands of some bench players before intentionally skipping over the guys who were on the floor.
Was he angry over perceived dirty play from the Orange? We don’t really know, but that certainly looked like more than an innocent oversight.
As we saw earlier this season when Tom Brady supposedly snubbed J.J. Watt (video here), these things aren’t always what they seem. But with the footage that was shown, Coach K would have a tough time explaining what happened.
