BYU KU Game Thread
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Marcus.
-
Okay Marc
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich ok, so no way?
-
Game has definitely slowed down for big Dave this year
-
@DanR at least this game
-
Braun delivers
-
David Buckets McCormack
-
Wow
-
@Crimsonorblue22 I donāt think Ochai would be a bad choice, but if I needed someone on the other team not to score I would have Marcus guard that person.
-
Braun kid has some long ass arms
-
Dayton is not a big team, Toppin is their biggest player (6-9 220). They will test KUās defense and Iām very curious who Self puts on Toppin because putting Garrett or Ochai on him means putting Doke/McCormack/DeSousa on a much smaller player.
-
OK time to clear the bench.
-
@DanR Reverse Svi arms.

Just your standard 16 points on 9 shots for Davey Buckets.
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich I think Marcus is our best defender, but this guy is pretty tall
-
Rest the starters. Big game tomorrow.

-
@BShark oozing confidence
-
If we could hit some opens 3 itād be nice lol
-
Big game for him. His improvement is noticeable with his back to the basket
-
Poor Silvio! I never thought heād have this kind of season-so far
-
Why are the starters still in?

Heās still very raw, Iām not too surprised by this.
-
KU players not named Doke 8-10 at the line.
-
Maybe next time the Jayhawks go to Maui Iāll try to goā¦ Hawaii is the only state I havenāt visited
-
Two down, one to go !
-
I think we are just playing toppin.
-
Jeez rock chalk flops?
-
Last time KU played Dayton, we held them to 43 points and Cole Aldrich dropped KUās first official triple double in the second round of the 2010 NCAA Tournament.

Boo

I think the way we kind of need to look at it is - - Toppin is gonna get his, the key thing will be - -just make sure the other 4 that a couple of them just donāt go off for career days. - - Toppin is going to be a hard matchup with whoever we put on him.
Like Bilas was saying we put Garrett on him he just gonna post him up - - you put or try and put Doke or McCormack out on him he just take them outside. ā So do the best you can on him - - Contain the others. ā ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
Itās like we donāt usually get credit for even having Jayhawks in the nba, but now negative news.
-
Iām watching post game, screw espn
-
Duh, I know

Got to get better on our 3ās

That SFA coach just made himself a nice jump to a job at the next level, if he wants it.
-
@jayballer73 we either have to shut him down or make sure no one else beats us.
-
Salty little game for big Dave, him and Doke combined for 12 for 15 the from floor. Dotson finally had decent assists to TO ratio with 8 and 2 but continues struggle hitting shots. Think he missed about 5 layups, most which where contested but Iād still like to see him not only hit more of those but a few jumpers as well. He didnāt make a single shot outside of 4 feet according to the shot chart and thatās disappointing. Shocking Moss was just 1 for 5 from distance but looked rushed to me.

Exactly , agree. Like I said he is going to get his , but we have faced others like this before, example and yes maybe little luck was involved - -but we beat Steph Curry - -for one, we just got to make sure no one else goes off crazy

While Dave played well, it is incredibly clear that some of our observations are correct ā and Bilas said it best ā McCormack and Doke ādonāt mesh wellā on the court together. And Silvo basically being benched is just astonishing to me. I really wonder what is going on there.
Dave is a good player. Doke is a good player. But Dave is not a good enough high post player to make the high/low work. Heās really a poor passer. He should NEVER shoot that 17 footer. Thatās the range of shots that in the day of the three pointer are the worst shots to take. The defense should invite that shot every possession.
Both Dave and Doke look really nice on the block. I donāt think this is going to work though, with the long term goal being a national championship.
This will be something to monitor. Maybe the biggest thing.
And Moss needs to just square up and stop drifting. He did that on a few misses.
