Duhon's ''disappointment'' in being benched by coach Scott Skiles for Game 3 of the conference semifinals against the Detroit Pistons -- after he missed a film session the same week -- matches the disappointment of team officials in Duhon's penchant for partying over the years.
Skiles is said to be as tired of that as Duhon apparently was when he ''overslept'' and missed a practice on New Year's Eve weekend. If that's news to Duhon, it makes two wake-up calls he has missed.
It hasn't gone unnoticed that the three-year veteran is as recognizable at hot spots such as Ontourage and Rockit Bar as he is at the Berto Center, or that his name is as much a staple of bold-type gossip columns as it is the sports section

Cheer Sheet vs Maryland, Jan 26th 2005 -
Duke vs. Maryland
Cameron Indoor Stadium
Wednesday, January 26, 20005
The Basics
-We welcome Maryland to town. They defeated us last year in the championship game of the ACC Tournament, but now it's time for redemption.
-Recently, Maryland's student fans have been getting nationally berated for thier crass and crude behavior (you might remember being able to here* their taunts of "F-You, J.J." on television at the Duke Maryland game in College Park last year, and a couple of years before that when their fans threw trash at the Duke bench resulting in Carlos Boozer's mom receiving a concussion). This is our chance to distinguish ourselves from them, so lets's be creative but classy.
-Cameron should never EVER be quiet. During timeouts, stoppages, halftime, etc.. do something. Make up cheers. Make noise. IF you are behind Maryland's bench, make all kinds of noise during their timeouts. We're on national television. Prove again that we are the best fanis in the country. Period.
THE NO, NO'S...
-DJ Strawberry is entirely off-limits, NO EXCEPTIONS. Just don't go there. We're classier than that.
-Cameron Security has asked us to remind you not to bring, food, drink, or bags into the stadium.
THE DIRT ON OUR OPPONENT -UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND TERRAPINS -
Fodder for your cheering creativity
-Although he is no longer on the team, taunts concerning the ugliness of Steve Blake are still acceptable
-Maryland likes to think they're our rival, but our rival is Carolina. Don't forget the staple chants of "Not our rival!" or "We're not rivals!"
-Maryland uses the slogan "Fear the turtle" but we prefer "Smear the turtle"
-To drwaw distinctions between us and Maryland, we can chant "We don't riot" or "We don't throw stuff"
-The UMD Head Coach is Gary Williams: he tends to sweat, a lot. The standard chant is "Sweat Gary, Sweat!" (Two years ago he was so angered by this chant that he flicked off the student section)
-If (when) Gary gets angry and red in the face, we can chant "Gary needs a hug!"
We can point to Coach K and say "Sure" and then to Gary and say "Unsure"
For Maryland's midnight madness, Gary drove out to center court in a NASCAR race car. We could chant "Where's your racecar?"
#22 - Nik Caner-Medley: Was recently arrested in Portland Maine for drunk and disorderly conduct. According to the newspaper: "Caner-Medley was there, yelling, said Lt. Malloch, reading from the plice port. He took his shirt off and threatened to assault (the complainant). (Caner-Medley's) friends were trying to restrain him. He was intoxicated and made a statement, "I'm from Maryland and nobody can beat me."
-NCM's girlfriend is named Myra, and her pet name for him is "Piggy"
-NCM was arrested at a bar called "The Old Port" and is prohibited from returning
-A previous cheer we've used for NCM is "Three names, no game!"
-NCM's major is "Letters and Sciences"
#11 - John Gilcrist: Gilchrist and Gary have been having personal problems recently (steming from Gilchrist''s desire to leave early for the NBA). Gilchrist has also been having academic issues.
#13 - Chris McCray: Second in the ACC in free-throw shooting percentage behind J.J. ("J.J's still better";)
#23 - Mike Jones: heavily hyped player out of high school, but hasn't lived up to the hype and is very sensitive about it. Lots of talk surrounding him about transferring. Very sensitive to the media talk and internet message boards.
General Nots:
Add CheerSheets to your IM buddy list and contribute for the next game.
