Especially a win over a Top Ten team.
Good job rebounding, good overall effort.
-
THis team doesn’t like to make it look easy, that’s for sure
-
I tend to agree with the posters who say this team is a year away.
The good news is that it’s early enough in the season for them to develop some chemistry.

I’m getting to old for these kind of games
-
Anyone remember when there was so much talk about how Jalen wouldn’t see that minutes talking how he would have few minutes ? - - - I do - - 23-10 - double double again tonight
-
I’m worried we have 2 more years of McCormack. The kid doesn’t get it.
-
Not Dave’s day…week…year.
-
@approxinfinity don’t say things like this.

the kid helped us stay in it the 1st half

Schedule and most of cbb is down tbh. Like looking at the games of other teams in the top 10, it’s pretty derp.
-
Thompson hit some big shots for us in the 2nd half - - made some freshmen mistakes also but he will be ok takes time
-
Maybe we were spoiled by having Azubuike, especially the way he played late in the season last year. Not a fair comparison?

He shot 5-7 in the first half and that’s all he did. If he wasn’t in there other people would have scored and contributed more to the game. He left wide open shooters all night, didn’t rebound well, never ever holds a screen, got called for a moving one, shot off balance garbage after the first 10 minutes, there just is very little to like. Still can’t time a blocked shot for the life of him.

Sorry you feel that way - I’ll be sure and let Coach know lmao

Won a game against a top 10 opponent where Ochai did nothing offensively. Impressive.

As well as TGF
-
@BeddieKU23 That’s really not as surprising to me, he’s gonna be hit/miss all year. Ochai had been playing consistently well.
-
I try to think of the criticisms of Doke. Some were similar. Couldn’t defend the 3, couldn’t rebound particularly well. But that stuff ended when he got in shape. Dave appears to be in shape but has gotten worse not better his Jr year and is a way way worse scorer while having the same massive usage rate.
-
Well look at it like this. - - - Oachi lays a big FAT ZERO - -contributes nothing and we still find a way to win. – Oachi has times like this where you don’t even knows he is there
-
His usage rate is 10% higher then Doke. Self has got to have a funeral on this feed Dave 15-20 possessions a game nonsense

you beat me to that post - -Agree
-
I think about how well this roster shoots, then you take Garrett off, and add Clemence. Assuming Jalen hangs around college hoops, next year will be very salty. Clemence is an ELITE shooter, that happens to be about 6’10’’. We are super fortunate he grew up a KU superfan. Thanks mom!
-
Yeah Ochai had one of those nights. At least he defended and did a few other things
-
Thompson looked good until he lost his poise. Really enjoy his foul line pull up. Pretty money.

Yeah he has been flashing why he will be good a few times this year. We could see a really big leap next year.
-
Dave had 13 points & 7 rebounds. Pretty decent night all in all ya 3 TO’s but if you want to be honest we should be happy with that - - we shouldn’t need much more then that on an average night, point wise no reason we need more then tht with the other scorers we have on this team - -if we can get that kind of production out of him on a regular basis - - - I’m fine. - -If we would of gotten diddly squat out of Oachi wouldn’t of had to worry about it - -when you have him flat line then people magnify other players play. - -I mean come on ya maybe if you want to get really picky he could of gotten 2-3 more rebounds.
Yet if you look at it and see what he contributed tonight comparing it to what he has been getting and getting this kind of contribution against a really good quality opponent like this - -unless your just a chronic complainer you need to realize this is progress from him - -he is going to be fine
-
Our offense is the same as last year: play through the center. But, our personnel is way different. Anyone else surprised by how much of our offense is run through Dave?
-
@stoptheflop I’m very interested to see the offense after the Christmas break. Bill seems to be trying to figure things out still.
-
Bill on Jalen “terrific, just unbelievable”
-
-
Gotta say both fans did a great job of wearing their masks. My son says Lawrence is really good at doing that.

Somebody help me out. - -Wasn’t we originally suppose to play Tennessee this season ?
-
I miss the energy Dok brought to the team; the way Dok sprinted down the court and even got out on the breaks. Dave has very little energy and is slow getting back down court on defense. But, Dave did a few things on offense that worked. Maybe he’ll get better.

I would like to be glass half full on this, but…It was a tale of two halves. Dave had a solid first half, but not so much in the second. 0-5 in the second half, a couple of turnovers, 1-2 from the line, and 3-4 rebounds. But, to his credit, he wasn’t a black hole at the end and kicked it out to Jalen for what turned out to be the game winner…
