I'm a KU fan, and by no means a Duke fan..but the reason for all of the Duke hate is simply jealousy and maybe a touch of hearing so much about them. But they deserve most of the cred they get

I don't mind a lot of their players, especially from 5+ years ago (although Wojo and Chrissy Collins can eat my ass). There are 2 things that people hate about Duke: 1) the national media's obsession with all things Duke. Last year the team underachieved and yet the media was lauding what a great coaching job K did with what little talent he had. The media didn't mention that most of the team were McD's All Americans coming out of high school. And 2) Coach K is a whiny little bitch. He pisses and moans about every single call made against his team and tends to pout and sulk when his team is not playing well.
