@Texashawk Its just jaybate - there is no real evidence that Svi and Malik have chemistry issues. All conjecture.
You saying it’s just conjecture is just you being @HawkChamp.
I never just “conject.”
“Conjecting” bores me.
I always start with facts, or observations. In this case I started with an observation that stood out enough to catch my eye when I wasn’t looking for such an appearance.
It was what it was and I described how it appeared. Nothing more. Nothing less.
The really interesting question here is why are you just being @HawkChamp and saying another board rat is “conjecting”?
What makes you do that?
Rock Chalk!

I’m not spreading bullshit. What I saw and described REALLY happened. Bullshit would me prentending I didn’t see what I described, right?
-
@jaybate-1.0 no one is denying it happened. Most of us think that theory is off base and not true. I personally don’t care the extent to which you propagate it, and I will listen to your theories in the future. It’s why I’m on here - I enjoy reading what other people think, but I will also comment when I think you might be misinformed. I disagree with you about chemistry issues between Malik and Svi, so we will have to agree to disagree.

Things spread TO this site…not FROM it…in my experience.
Your experience is wrong. Google “KU basketball Sosinski” and you will see this thread show up…with your post on lack of chemistry between two players which anyone that has followed the team knows is incorrect and now is all over the Internet.
Google is called a search engine, because it searches. That’s what is supposed to happen when you search, you silly Billy. It happens with what you just wrote and posted, too. Do you realize that you just compounded the issue. OMG!! OMG!!! What you wrote is going to be on Google. Oh Lordy! What ever are you going to do? It’s all your fault now!!!
@JayHawkFanToo and TEAM CHEMISTRY will show up in this thread!!!
Run for your lives!!!
Ahem.
Next, how can my experience be wrong? I experience what I experience, right? You’re not the experience police now, too, are you?
My experience may not include everything that happens in the flipping world (how could it), but it’s still my experience of appearances, right? So flipping what? Get a grip. You can do better, as you like to say to me.
Now think again about what you just did. Feel the XTREME HEAVIOSITY of it. By responding to my response you are now guilty of being “searchable”. Bad, bad, bad, shame on you!!!
Think about that. Now you are to blame, too. Everything is searchable. That means everything! Well, except for the conservative searches that Google reputedly has been biasing results for. Surely Google wouldn’t do that, would they?
Now, Are your rhoids fired up? Isn’t that your pet phrase? No, wait, that’s NOT it.
Lemme see, what is my experience of your pet phrase, @JayHawkFanToo?
Hmmm.
Lemme see if I can remember the experience, it’s, um, “are you off your meds?” Is that it? Um, that’s it, isn’t it? Are you off your meds? Correct me if I’m wrong. I recall the experience appearing to be it’s “are you off your meds?” I don’t know how you meant, but I mean it as a figure of speech only. So: Are you off your meds?
Nah, of course you’re not.
This appears par for the @JayhawkFanToo miniature golf course.
Do you feel pretty guilt about being searchable in this thread?
Buck up, @JayHawkFanToo. You are going to be ok.

When I read this my first thought was that Billy isn’t coming back. Then I read others who think Billy will be back. If Billy is coming back, why bring on Sosinski?
Is it possible the Lawson brothers might leave after this semester? I haven’t heard anything like this but I don’t see why we add Sosinski if we get either Billy or Sousa. I wonder if they are happy with the post appearing more crowded next year?

What does Chemistry look like?
In basketball, chemistry can help a team with less talent defeat a team with much greater talent (and less chemistry). We’ve seen those team bounce KU out of the tourney on occasion. The one that comes to mind is Northern Iowa. But how do you see chemistry? There’s no formal stat for it.
In my opinion, chemistry is exemplified through passing and shot selection on offense and by offering ‘help’ on defense. Teams with chemistry seem to instinctively make the right pass or find the right guy to take the shot or move around on defense as a team.
So does this team have chemistry?
I’d say it has more chemistry than other recent teams that I expected to have more chemistry because of their extensive off-season activities (in Korea, for example). It is still early in the season, but the ball movement has been exceptional – the pass that @jaybate-1-0 mentioned is just one example. And the defense has been especially sharp – I recall two possessions that were shot-clock violations in the first half. That comes from a team moving as one and is less likely when you have 5 guys playing 1:1.
This team looks really good against the teams they’ve played thus far. Syracuse will be another opportunity to assess the team and its chemistry.

You look good backpeddling.
Why would you say I posited a theory, when I did not and you are the only one talking about theories? Hmm?
And why say no one’s denying it happened when no one is denying it happened? It’s like saying no one’s denying it’s the 21st Century, when noone’s denying its the 21st Century.
I just love this kind of stuff.

I largely agree with your analysis that this team is showing better chemistry than some recent teams and completely agree that I cited only one example. My intent was never to suggest this Team had bad chemistry. My intent was to indicate that it has like any other team some early kinks to work out on the chemistry front and it will be harder to work them out with 1-2 players new to the team coming aboard mid season.
-
@jaybate-1.0 Yeah, adding new players can be disruptive… we’ll see how it all plays out.
-
@jaybate-1.0 yes, it is a theory of yours that there are issues between Malik and Svi. To every other human, you sir have formed what we in academia call a theory. I disagree with your idea, and that’s that. Let’s see how the season unfolds and if your theory holds any water.
-
@drgnslayr My first thought was the same…doesn’t bode well for Billy coming back. But heck, even if he does that would put us with 4 bigs…which would be typical for Self, I think.
-
@jaybate-1.0 Whether there is anything there or not, I have to take my hat off to you for noticing…wish I had DVRd the game, like HEM, so I could take a look at what you observed.
-
@jaybate-1-0 I thought I that play was weird when it happened too. Hopefully we’re reading something into nothing.

This post is deleted!
-
I might be way off base.
If I look at this through a glass half full, then Self is doing this to get another big body for practices because he is preparing to have 3 players become eligible and hopes to run more post-based offense, like his new hybrid hi/lo.
-
I just can’t see Coach bringing on a player just for practice - We have enough practice players since we can use both the Lawson’s and Cunliffe for that -I think he brings him on to fill in spot minutes for foul issues with Doke until Preston wither comes back OR De Sousa gets here. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Yeah we have plenty of players for practice. It sounds like if he can contribute he will be kept around, if not, no big deal.

As usual, if you can’t dazzle them with brilliance, baffle them with bull…All that writing to say what? Nothing?

I proved to you that “things” CAN and do spread easily from this site to others but you are obviously unable to see it. SMH.

@JayHawkFanToo Thank you. - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

“As usual, If @JayHawkFanToo can’t dazzle them with brilliance, baffle them with bull…All that writing to say what? Nothing?”
Is that how to do it in thread cracking and site destabilization 101?
—
No you didn’t “prove” anything, except search engines search; that’s a tautology last I heard.
Ooh but I like the “if you can’t dazzle them with…”
Repeat. Repeat. Repeat.
Seriously What thread cracking seminar teaches that thread cracking technique? (Notice how I satirized that with redundancy in the same sentence?)
Is this technique trade marked and copyrighted, or can I start repeating it to you ad nauseum too.
Howling!!
Get ready!
“As usual, If @JayHawkFanToo can’t dazzle them with brilliance, baffle them with bull…All that writing to say what? Nothing?”
Hey, did you hear D-CIA Pompeo is rumored to be taking over the state Department’s private contractor army from Tillerson soon. THIS COULD GET VERY TENSE WITH KOCH-STATE AND ROCKEFELLER-DEFENSE FIGHTING FOR THE HOG TROUGH.
Seriously, I enjoy reading and hooting with you.
P.S.: Experience can’t be right or wrong. Only inferences drawn from experience can be wrong. Stop with the unfastidious thinking. You can do better!

I’m not reading anything in, nor are you. It’s just an observation of an atypical event among players that feel warm and fuzzy toward each other.
Who knows what it means?
But if I were a coach and saw that, my antennae would go up and I would be talking with both players to see if anything was wrong.
