  @wissox that’s awful. Best wishes to you all. My grandpa has the opposite issue. He’s sharp as a tack but has advanced macular degeneration so he gets really frustrated when he can process information but he needs someone to read him something or a suite of magnification equipment to read himself.

  @wissox said in KU vs Duke Game Thread: @Texas-Hawk-10 My experience is neutral floor fans that have to travel are not going to be the rowdy freshmen that are drunk, rude, crude and obnoxious. The exception being the Kentucky fans I met in 2012 in the SuperDome. I dealt with that group in San Antonio in 2022 with Villanova fans. Those fans generally lived down to the expectations of Philly fans of being total assholes. Vegas is also a major travel destination for rich kids, which Duke has plenty of, looking for a debaucherous time since recreational weed is legal in Nevada, unlike North Carolina amd have plenty of money to blow. Even with that, the students I interacted with fine and not like Missouri, Kentucky, KSU, ISU, or Villanova’s fans.

  @Zabudda We better not think we can go toe-to-toe in a game based on height. I’m hoping we try what we did in our last game and get out and run. We should be willing to try several things to see what works. This Duke team is crazy talented and tall. Not sure their weaknesses. I would think our best shot is to try to control the tempo and find a tempo we do well at and they struggle. Our on-ball and ball screen defense has to be energetic and pesky to disrupt their offense. I know one thing… Self better have stressed rebounding this past week. It’s the key to controlling tempo and possessions. KJ! Come on, brother! Get in there and fight!

  @BeddieKU23 said in UNCW Game Thread: @jayballer67 Assume they are working the logistics of this possibility. Tiller wants to come, I think at this point it’s mostly about trying to make it work within the NCAA’s rules.

  @drgnslayr for sure being a small 2a school we didn’t have a ton of size. I was/am a shade over 6’1 and played forward a lot because at that size I was still taller than half the other players. We had one 6’5 guy that played center for us and he’s a good dude but one of the most uncoordinated guys I’ve ever met lol. I’d just shot fake and dunk on him in practice a couple of times a week. Probably my biggest game was we played Hutch Trinity every year and they had some good players. There 6’7 center ended going to Pitt state and playing for a few years before he had shoulder issues. I held him 7 points and shut him down the last we played them. Its funny because I always joke with my son (9) that the only 3 things he can count on in life is death, Taxes and my jump shot. Admittedly I don’t have a great jumper but I was a really good FT shooter and all district defense. My goal was always to make whomever I was guarding cry because they couldn’t do anything. I was probably a lot like KJ to my team, but I could actually rebound lol. I shot 1/3 in my highschool career from 3 point land. The one I hit I got called for a Technical foul, kid guarding me was running his trap all game (while we were winning by 20 mind you). I hit the shot and told him that was the SBC long distance shot of the game.

  @BShark said in Oakland Game Thread: @BeddieKU23 said in Oakland Game Thread: Disagree he’s playing too many. Play your depth, injuries happen, if you can minimize the risk of injury with some of the guys right now for the long haul you do it. Injuries and guys getting worn down from too many minutes is a real thing that has happened to Hunt, Juan and KJ. We have 10 that belong, figure it out He always plays this many early, especially in games where we will win anyway. He knows it will be trimmed by conference play but compared to last year the minutes for the big three should hopefully be down. UNC game was more telling. Bill tightens up his rotation when the competition ramps up.

  Im not down on Zach either. He seems to have active hands on D. He doesnt seem to finish well but he can bring energy, 5 fouls and size and thats useful.
