Calamari Game Thread
-
well try to look at it this way - if you can play that ugly except Jalen and win -got to say WHEW and take the W and go home
-
Just one step closer to passing UK in all time total wins.
-
Harris makes the ball move. 6 of 9 assists today
-
Missing 47 shots still seems ugly
-
Thanks all, as always. I was afraid we lost this one, but like someone said hustles win the game.
-
@BShark don’t be mad at the kids

True. But we outscored the cats by 10 with the right dudes. Guarding makes everything prettier.
-
Shot under 30% and won. Self is secretly excited.
-
Boards!

Sportscenter guy just said its stranger to see no fans in cameron than in any other place. There are fans of about 350 DI teams that would disagree with that statement. ESPN wonders why fans think they’re biased.

harris had a lot to do with that
-
Small ball lineup is the best lineup but Dave/Mitch will have to play some to keep Jalen out of foul trouble. Unless we stay small and let Marcus guard a big.
-
well Good Night my Crimson & blue – ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
Nice last few days for all my teams…Seahawks, Chiefs and Jayhawks all win.
-
We had a few charges too
-
We were supposed to get killed on the boards, but we outrebounded them by 4. Guards stepped up. That’s cool.
-
Harris is an elite defender for his size there I said it.
-
@wissox I like SVP.

WE JUST GOT TO HAVE dAVE AT SOME POINT - - GOT TO GET BETTER. - -WITH OUT A DECENT big - NO CHANCE AT A TITLE
-
@BShark 6 steals in the two games
-
@jayballer67 Jalen is a decent big.
-
@Kcmatt7 OK, I never watch Sportscenter so I’ll give you that. Hoping they get to our game soon.
-
Duke shot 32.3% and they have 5 mcd all Americans. Glad we only have 2

Nova has won two titles without much of a “big”
-
Starting center Jalen Wilson.
-
Lmao we didn’t break 30% from the floor. 20-67 is 29.85%
-
Braun 6 offensive rebounds and 13 rebounds for the game
-
Badgers play Marquette Friday. Illinois-Baylor tomorrow night. Huggie/zags tomorrow. Hoops week smorgasbord.

KU WITH A TOUGH REBOUND GAME AGAINST WASHBURN IN TWO DAYS.

@BShark he’s smart, very high, super hi bb iq. Do u know his brother was shot in an accidental shooting last yr? I think he was with a friend. Rough. Was never public knowledge

I hope people don’t think Dave has come around if he has a big game against Washburn - - ummm no
-
This team has a lot of grit. CB, Jalen, Marcus, Harris, Ochai all very tough. Marcus playing sick, you can tell he wasn’t at his best, but still played big minutes and was okay. Give Bryce some more time, get Tyon healthy. Did Tristan even get in the game today?
-
Is Texas… good?
-
Remember ugly is in the eye of the beholder. Defense was superb both ways and while it leads to scoring droughts and missed shots, there’s a beauty to it and i long for the days of the top defense in the country type Bill Self team.

For like 8 seconds, I believe.
-
@wissox long for it?
Last years D was #2 kenpom in the country and ELITE.
-
@Kcmatt7 yes
-
@Kcmatt7 Was it that high? I didn’t realize! Maybe the piss poor D against Gonzaga had me longing for something I’d forgotten was so near.
-
@BShark not second half
-

Duke only shot 32 pct., Michigan State barely broke 40. Not exactly a shooter’s paradise tonight.
-
@wissox yep. Only 60 ppg allowed, good for 10th best in the country.
Doke was just a monster and then you had Dot and Garrett pestering
-
@FarmerJayhawk I think Tristan’s parting moment was not blocking out a guy on a FT who blew by him for an easy layup.
-
Well, off for a late snack. Nite all. RCJH !
-
We have 1 game on ESPN+
-
@wissox yup. That was almost a remote tossing one for me

Yeah the defense last year was insane. Second only to UVA only without their shitty pace of play. 6th lowest 2pg % and 3rd lowest overall fg% against in the country thanks to Udoka. Very few teams even cracked 70 against KU last year. Dayton in OT, Texas Tech in a close win, Oklahoma and Iowa State in blow outs.
-
I still don’t know how they call that a 3?
