MSU Game Thread

@BShark I think it goes to show how good Dedric is when 20/14/6/2/2 is a “subpar game”.
-
@HawkChamp Yep. If he shoots more like normal he has at least 3 more 2 pt makes in this game. A few of his misses were super close too, rolling out and stuff like that.
-
Dotson and Grimes were just flat tremendous. The poise they showed was better than the guys that had experience.
-
Switched over to the Gonzaga game for awhile. Idaho State has a Muggsy Bogues-sized guy who’s throwing his body around against the bigs. (Listed at 5-8 on the roster…no way.) Entertaining, if nothing else. .
-
@BShark yeah, missed several layups and some outside shots.

We’ve seen what Self has done with 5* guards before… cough2008coughcough
-
Coach Self calls Grimes “Q”; so will I.
-
Only scored 6 points in the final 5 minutes with 5 missed free ones in that span.

Is that a political reference ? Q being a deep state theorist? I can see Self buying into FBI conspiracies!
Lol
-
I thought Q made the fancy gadgets for James Bond.

Zion Williams. 1 basket. $100k. Wonder what the Duke cost per point will end up at?
-
Any KU references in Duke/UK game commentary yet?
-
@Bwag Of course not.
-
-
Dedric had a “bad game” with 20 points, 14 rebounds, 6 assists, 2 steals, and 2 blocks.
Can’t wait until he starts playing well lol
-
Does Zion get the, what was that player at OU last year?, treatment from ESPN? With crazy unrelated factoids and childhood pics etc…
-
Vick was probably the most disappointing player for KU. He needs to play better. Grimes looked like the senior and Vick the freshman tonight.
-
What’s the over/under day count to a Zion W Kindergartner teacher interview?

32 minutes with his stat line is YIKES. Based on the minutes he is a ride or die guy, hope he starts playing like it.

Was he bad or just not at forefront?
-
@Bwag And not one word about his price…
-
tucky is getting their ass kicked…
-
2 points (1-7), didn’t get to the line, 3 boards, 3 dimes, 3 thefts, 2 turnovers. He needs to do better than that. I thought he took some shots that were out of rhythm.
-
I’d say Vick is engaged, which is saying a lot.

That narrative is only in place for KU. DOLLAR BILL DERPPPPP

Glad to gain one on them.

Just can’t play 30+ minutes and have stat lines like this. The 5th big minute player will be needed some nights. Dotson and Grimes are FR etc…
-
So I think I was wrong about Duke and Kentucky. I will fully own up to the L if the game keeps going this way.
-
Talking about all the NBA picks, but not a hint about how they obviously pay players too. K
-
Ya, go ahead and give me the L.
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich it’s not your fault- you had no idea that Tucky played no defense whatsoever.
-
@KUSTEVE It’s usually the one thing that they do.

Imagine a UK team being so mismatched athletically. Cal has NO idea what to do and it’s beautiful. Self has worked with these kind of handicaps before and done well enough.
-
No defense may be an understatement. Duke is on a 140-point pace right now.
-
I didn’t think KJ was that bad tonight. 4 points (1-1), 6 rebounds, 1 assist, 0 turnovers in 10 minutes.
-
I don’t like Cal but he is entertaining, Coach rat face is smug, sanctimonious, arrogant and a pompous a$$ and he has an attitude that he and Duke are better than anyone else. As Much as I would like to gain a game on UK, I rather see Duke go down.

Better than Vick for sure.
-
The thing I’ll say for Cal is that he doesn’t teach flopping/charge-taking. He just lets his athletes run and play, and if they win it’s based on athleticism/skill. Can’t say the same thing for Consonants.

Not being able to coach a lick is costing him big time so far tonight.
-
He’s being out-athleted.
-
@BShark Thats what’s so funny to me Dook, UNC and UK fans talking smack that KU pays players. You guys get better recruits than Kansas what do you think is happening there? Is what I always ask. I’d be willing to bet that the vast majority of D1 guys get stuff they shouldn’t, as I’ve stated Ik guys that have in the smaller ranks of college that has a ton of less money flow.
-
I wasn’t the least but impressed with K.J. or Moore. Those two guys have a fair amount of work ahead of them if they want to stay in the rotation most games. Vick was a total ghost, I literally don’t remember anything he did good or bad. Which isn’t good for a guy that was on the floor for 32 minutes.
-
Honestly don’t think KJ was that bad. He did air-ball a free throw though lol.
