Must win game tonight
-
I saw Marcus in somebody’s warmup pic
-
With Samuel its a good matchup for Dave. Mitch doesn’t seem playable tonight outside his normal rotation. If our 3 best players don’t show up though and shoot well it won’t matter
-
@Kcmatt7 Read the box score from our recent debacle. Both had 14 mins and zero turnovers.
Dave had 5 rebs (3 off) and 8 pts on 8 FTs. 0 for 4 from the field, 0 blocks, steals or assists. 2 PF.
Mitch had 2 blocks and 3 fouls, and zero in every other category including rebounds.
According to the play-by-play on ESPN.com, Texas scored 2 FTs on one of Mitch’s fouls, and missed their 1-and-1 FT on one of Dave’s. Their other fouls were non-shooting.
Other interesting stats are available at Sports Reference at https://www.sports-reference.com/cbb/boxscores/2021-01-02-12-kansas.html.
Particularly interesting from that site is that every KU player had a poor defensive rating in that game (Dave 120, Mitch 116) and that Dave had the highest offensive rating of 133, and he and Wilson were the only ones above average. Mitch’s is undefined.
It really shows how poorly the whole team played. But based on that game, I’d go with Dave.
Mitch’s zilch stat line reminds me of a friends game in a Junior High JV game. He was 8 inches shorter than the opposing center and hopelessly outmatched, but was right there in every play, working his butt off and getting nothing to show for it. But the audience actually gave my friend a standing ovation. Might be the first and only non-sarcastic standing O for a zero point, zero rebound game
-
They said they would go through warm-ups to see. Last time that was a thing he played
-
If the freshman Miles doesn’t play well this is the 9th best team in the league imo
-
@BeddieKU23 If we weren’t already down Bryce I would say I’m interested to see Dajuan. Really hope Marcus can go just because we have so few guards.

Texas was faster at every position as well as experienced.

Hes going to try and play and is starting
-
Leave it to the ACC to be no where close to the end of the game with 4 minutes to scheduled tip
-
All of the blue bloods are down this year… Weird year
-
Ref in the unc Miami game looks like bruce weber from afar
-
UK going to be boosted by a historically terrible SEC. Going to make them look so much better than they are.
-
I mean I expected it after what we lost but now the injury bug is hitting right around the time it always does
-
NC’s offense looks about as bad as KU’s last saturday
-
Is this the game thread or is @wissox going solo again?
-
@BeddieKU23 I’m going to be able to enjoy this season just because I have such low expectations. But I’m pumped for next season.

Spread is only KU -6.5

Figure they had an idea.

What channel?

Hello!
-
Harris creating!
-
I guess the refs suck here too
-

Things will get interesting if they dare him to score.
-
Their court is atrocious
-
I’m taking no chances tonight…I switched KU logo cups this game for good luck.
(I should’ve bought stock in Packer Plastics with as many cups as I have from them.)
-
@nwhawkfan I have a final four shirt on.
-
Who hit the 3

I usually save mine for tourney time (assuming we have one this year)
-
Dave made a basket. Maybe its his superbowl
-
-
@BeddieKU23 Good match-up for him against another plodder.
-
Braun for three. We look horrible so far though up 8-7
-
Didn’t take long for our defense to look like hot garbage
-
Watch this ACC shit show go to OT.

It can never be good with Dave on the floor. We should consider a zone when playing Dave.
-
harris to braun to dave for the jam. Wow. Need more of that
-
A dunk!!!
-
Dave converted a lob. Is the guy upstairs on a break?
-
-
I’ll take a zone anyway.
