Here is a really bad sore spot we HAVE TO get fixed or it will crush us in the end in the Tourney - -Oklahoma out of their 64 points - -40 in the paint

@jayballer67 Those 6 years have paid off…
lol - -your right there

Good job shutting down Tanner Groves, although some of that was self-inflicted.
Only 8 points on 4 of 13. Outrebounded by Jalen & Mitch.

@Marco said in BOOMER Game Thread:
How many points and rebounds did Dave have?
McCormack just flat didn’t show tonight got to get some consistency. as bad a it sounds Mitch was a lot better for us then Dave thats not good
-
@jayballer67 I think it was very unusual that we got our ass kicked in the paint.Normally that is one of our strong points
-
Dejuan was overexposed in this game. Got posted up, made numerous errors trying to drive the ball, and his shot just would not fall. Took 10 shots. I know OU was laying off of him, but he has to do better, or play less.

Thanks guys. I’m, very likely, the oldest poster here and you have made me feel welcome.

Actualy normally you would be right but this year been numerous games where we have just been blitzed in the paint getting beat on drives

Shot too much is my main complaint. OU dared him to do so, rightly so.

You don’t sound old. We enjoy your company and comments!

Lol you old bastard.

Thanks man.

@Zabudda A month from 87

Holy shit. Im just 71.

@jayballer67 He had 3 shots where the ball was in the rim, and it just bounced out. He lacks the quickness to get around people, and his small frame makes him a target to be posted by bigger guards. He is fine as a distributor, but as a main focal point of the offense, he certainly isn’t ready and might not ever be ready.

Saw my first game when Ku beat Santa Clara to win the 1952 championship.

I don’t think he is ever going to really be able to put on muscle. Just hoping Bobby comes along a bit for next season and we get another guard preferably from the portal I don’t think there are guys we can get from the HS ranks that move the needle at this point.

Happy to have you+! Post more

@jessejayhawk Wow, my first was 1972 in the NCAA tournament- KU vs. Villanova.
-
For the record…KU 2 Tanner Groves 0.

My worst “downer” was watching UNC beat Wilt and KU in three overtimes

LOL. It’d be funny to find out we had a ten year old amongst us though

@DanR Yes indeed. Especialy one that is as much fun as Marco
-
A little off topic, but did you notice the younger Tanner brother bears a striking resemblance to Napoleon Dynamite? I kept waiting for him to bust a move…
-
OK guys, bedtime for this old fart. See you all next game. Thanks for putting up with me

This tracks.
Landen is not wrong on this. He was pretty good at it. Doke too. This is really the first I’ve seen it happen this year, though I haven’t watched every minute of gameplay this season. I’m just not sure Dave is coordinated enough or has a solid enough base to make it happen.
-
I owe you an apology for calling you an old bastard. Of course it wasn’t said in a mean way at all. I have been agonizing about it and am so sorry if I offended you.
-
@jayballer67 Rock and roll.

@jessejayhawk The old slow down tactic as a weapon.
