@DCHawker I have already forgot about that situation. Hope to get a huge surprise.
-
@DCHawker LOL…

Assists, rebounds, and 3pt attempts looks liek the difference in the box score. That should all be correctable with adjustments at half time.
This KU team just doesn’t play that well as a team. I am not sure the assist numbers are ever going to get much better.
Now, if most of the core returns for next season, they will probably improve in that regard.
And yeah, 3PA…tale as old as time with Bill. We can talk about KU missing open looks but KU is only 3-8, that’s solid for this team. Literally identical to ISU as they are 6-16, but obviously they shot twice as many. Weird that they have more points…
-
Positives: we are doing better in Turnovers (6-9), Fouls (4-7), Steals (5-4), Freethrow% (100-50)
-
Agbaji in over Grimes to start this half. GOOD.
-
Mood
-
@BShark well, it was like we were running some action that resulted in open passing lanes on several plays, and when the pass was there the ball handler flinched, didn’t pass, and shot a brick.
-
@tundrahok Wish we were doing better in the score though…
-
Horton-Tucker is going to shoot every chance
-
Vick, ugh
-
Deflating watching them put up a fadeaway only to get the rebound
-

Not his night tonight.
-
Why can;t we call a f’ing timeout there?
-
Did Self spend too much time in the sun earlier today? Very red in the face…
-
YIKES
-
ugh
-
@DCHawker Maybe he’s still recovering from getting smashed with Huggiebear in Morgantown after the game.
-
Clown call
-
We’ve fallen in love with the incredibly tough drive to the heavily guarded layup
-
Offense is a huge issue
-
For the love of God
-
@Bwag define “we” and “love”
-
Still can’t guard the 3. JEEEEEZZZZZ!!!
-
Had ton of chances to get this game close
-
Can’t even make a run st home. Wow
-
@BShark Along with the huger defense issue…
-
Getting what we deserve
-
We’ve had several good open looks we just can’t shoot.
-
We get a stop and then we can’t score.
-
Shooting would fix a lot of this.
-
That’s the basket the eggs are all in I guess right now. That guys who aren’t great shooters are gonna suddenly become that. Idk.
-
The way Saturday ended is in this teams head
-
@kjayhawks Can’t make open shots, can’t make lay-ups, and can’t defend - doesn’t sound like a great recipe for success…
-

We = team Love = kinda type of self-love, think masterbation since you don’t need an assist
Is that the definition you were looking for? Probably over the line, so apologies in advance, I’ll do penance
-
Ochai and Lawson are the only two players catching the ball ready to shoot.
-
I’m thoroughly baffled by our inability to run any semblance of an offensive set.
-
@kjayhawks @BigBad Pretty much. Self had to think Grimes and Moore would be better shooters. Both have been truly terrible.
-
Ok, they got themselves a good shot that possession. Get a stop, do it again.
-
Dotson is afraid to throw an alley oop
-
I just wish this team could focus on each and every possession. They constantly lose focus.
-
Dedric was fouled on that as well
-

Agree. If they focused on defense the entire game they could be a lot better.
-
The fact that self had the 4 freshmen in together earlier showed he’s looking for ANYTHING right now
-
I don’t usually condone flopping, but Thornton is basically asking for an offensive foul yet we kee picking up blocks
-
@BShark Garrett at least makes up for it with drives and defense. Charlie Moore is Omar Wilkes 2.0

Remember the TCU game where we got 10 steals and forced 20 turnovers? And boxed out!
-
Actually ran a play after the timeout even though Dotson was afraid to pull the trigger on the lob, but that’s a good sign and we got the second choice shot. NOW SLOW IT DOWN ON OFFENSE for these young kids, Bill.

This team just doesn’t take charges. Probably a Bill Self stupid pride thing.
-
Someone has got to step up and help Lawson out.

I said this weeks ago. Lawson in the half court is better than anyone else. Slow the pace. Force other teams to execute half court. We suck in transition anyways.
