  Everything I saw said LeBron was denied because he arrived late and he had his entourage with him which was pretty big. If it was just LeBron by himself, he probably gets in, but his entourage is what caused the issue with capacity.

  Svi appears to be a very hearty competitor, not prone to injury considering his many months of game minutes winter/spring/summer. Seems as though injuries have always been a contributing factor for KU and so many schools, come NCAA Tourney time. He has survived some brutal play.

  @Texas-Hawk-10 I definitely hear what you are saying… I just think every team is different and sometimes the struggle of having less can be a plus. And then… other times… the depth really pays off!

  @HawkChamp We will see the Devonte we’re used to seeing next year. I think Jaybate is right - the kid was playing injured. We get the warrior back this year- the fierce competitor that outplayed Buddy Hield in that glorious game. Devonte’s performance in that game impressed Marcus Garrett so much, he mentioned it as one of the reasons Devonte was his favorite player. Everyone seems to be selling DG short, but I’m not. There is a reason he is my favorite player. There is twisted steel behind that smile.

  The big guy (or gal for that matter) alway gets the crap beat out of them and then they get whistled for the touch fouls. It is completly unfair and Udunka better get ready for how he will handle it. Not much of a load to handle if he is always on the bench with 3 whistles in 2 min.

  @jaybate-1.0 Here is a couple: Whitman shaved and couldn’t get by the new dorm facial recognition software. Missed practice for “Game of Thrones”. Ivy league played on 9 foot goals. T.J. Whatley called and wanted his face back.

  @jaybate-1.0 What happened to the hi-lo? Did it go when Doko takes a blow, so we gotta shoot from down below? The 5 out…give me a few to wrap my head around the idea.

  KUSTEVE said: @DoubleDD We aren’t going to be running the 4 out/1 in very often, imo. That will tremendously help our defense. Having a 7 footer at the rim helps as well. To believe that a Bill Self team is not going to compete defensively after a bad defensive year is complete, utter hogwash. Agreed. If Doke can find a way to stay on the court for 26-30 minutes a game its going to be a huge help in the middle. I hope that his time off with the injury made him more cerebral to his importance on the court. He’ll be in the top 5 in blocks in the Big-12 and maybe just as important alter a ton of others. We know teams didn’t shy away from driving to the hoop because there wasn’t the resistance teams are used to seeing from the Hawks. Now teams will have to find ways to score over more length and size which I think will lower shooting %'s for opposing teams as they either shoot more jump shots that are a lower % shot or get their shot erased at the rim.

  @Texas-Hawk-10 We had no options than shooting 3s, and Frank and JJ driving to the hoop. That’s all we had. Throw the ball into LL, and you get the double clutch, the slow motion gathering himself, and most times, a missed shot. We had a huge hole in the middle. Our front line couldn’t score in the paint*(unless we drove it), and we couldn’t defend the rim. You reference our big 3 (Chalmers,RR, Rush)from 2008 on the perimeter, and one of the reasons they were able to play the passing lanes, and create so much havoc on the perimeter was they had two very good bigs behind them to protect the rim. We are adding two very large bodies down low. Those additions should allow our perimeter guys to play tighter. Will they be as good as 2008? No. But, we will be better than last year, imo.

  KU usually has a nice non-con schedule, but how many of the good teams are true road games? They are almost exclusively neutral court or at Allen Fieldhouse. I’d like to see KU play more hard road non-con games. Bill is clearly comfortable playing on the road in conference and needs to go outside of his comfort zone. I think putting the team and Bill in more difficult environments will help prepare for the elite eight better. Like in 2011, that team came back so often there was no room for a pucker factor in the elite eight.
