Bryce Thompson Career Game Part 2 Game Thread

OSU shot 50% from the floor, 47% from three and shot 9 more fts. They lost by double digits. My goodness.
-
Bill Self. February. Sky. Blue. Rock Chalk.
-
26 assists out of 35 buckets…Awesome
-
2 road wins in a row. Very impressive.
-
They played well.
-
Good night bucketeers. Best believe I’m coming for Scott Drew with Saturday’s game thread title.

Hmm, how about
“Scott Drew can’t defend high ball screens so we should run them ad nauseam with KJ game thread”
-
Who could love jams better than KJ? 15 Pts and 0 TO’s.
-
@BShark got your back!
-
@BShark you was only half right about Thompson, Career half game thread haha
-
How bout that jumper… cha ching
-
Harris had the most boards, just 5
-
Very nice to watch this “are the blue bloods in trouble??” Segment on SVP and we’re chilling as a 1 seed as of now
-
Yes indeed!
-
Harris/Kev on bum legs had 17 assists
-
@FarmerJayhawk would like an obligatory “Kansas, the bluest of bloods” nod.
-
Let’s just hope not real bad for Kevin
-
Zuby kept our side of the bed warm thank you very much.

Hell we shot 54 % from the floor against the # 1 defensive team in league play— - that’s pretty good it’self

2 points 1 board don’t tell his story at all
-
@Crimsonorblue22 rebounding probably the only real issue in the way we played but it’s hard to not justify some of it with their size.

Told you…

I feel so bad K/Straight lost against OU tonight - -Dam that hurt even saying that lmao
-
Looks like Self’s invented some ways to get Gradey open, even against elite D.
-
That speaks for coaching. Self actually earns his HOF title. Probably more for his consistency than for NCs.

Now tell me Kevin is OK lol
-
Pretty sure the okie lite fans are still chanting you suck Dick… Even tho they’ve seen he does not. Lol
-
@kjayhawks we never turn and put our rear in them, not good at all at boxing out. They even got a board on a throw cause of that!
-
Hey it worked for like 4.5 minutes. Another one bites the dust.
-
@cragarhawk Chuckie does!
-
@Crimsonorblue22 for sure we can work on it to honest I’m shocked we only got out rebounded by 4. Seemed like more than that watching. I think they had 14 second chance point most of them dunks.
-
Gradey was due for a big game but if the chant helped lock him in, hopefully other teams do it as well and see how it goes
-
Gradey was an assassin! Our guys did what they had to do. Love how they played the passing lanes and those TOs converted to scoring killed OSU. Let’s remember back to previous years… all those great teams that went to Stillwater and lost! It’s a huge win and if we can get back healthy now we’ll threaten to win another conf title!
-
Insane that they shot 50% from the floor, 47% from deep and 9 more free ones but still end up losing by double digits. Feel like that’s something that doesn’t happen often.
-
I haven’t seen a stat sheet but I bet we won the possession battle!
-
Ernest made a big impact! Now get him to stop some of those fouls…
-
@drgnslayr they don’t show that on espn but they had 15 turnovers to our 10 and most of theirs turned into layups for us. We got up 10 more shots so hard for them not to circle that as a big issue tonight.
-
and our open-court scoring off of TOs was huge… especially against a top-notch defense like OSU. We played so much better offense in the open court.
-
@drgnslayr yes I think this team should push the tempo more often.
-
The trigger for us pushing tempo is off a steal or bad shot.
-
-
Udeh had some good moments but channeling his inner Jeff Graves with 5 fouls in 13 minutes. I still remember Graves having 2 fouls in 36 seconds one time lol

That’s a pretty normal thing for big men under Self to struggle with fouls early on in their careers. Part of it is likely because of the number of bodies Self can throw out there, especially if the player doesn’t have to play big minutes in that game.
-
Tonight was KU’s best offensive performance of the year against one of the top defenses in the conference. 17 combined assists from Harris and McCullar tonight has to be the stat of the night for me this game.
-
@drgnslayr OSU made a bunch, and I mean a bunch of head scratching jr. high like passes. Guys would just turn around and throw it right into our guys hands. Our guys then said “Thank you very much Mr. Cowboy” and then threw it to Gradey who’d make another 3. There had to be 6 or 7 like that. Had KU been doing that I might’ve broke the TV watching.
-
@wissox the one they threw right to joe as he and his man were running down the sideline was the biggest head scratcher.

Feels good to have the definitive best active coach in the game too.

Really fun rematch with Baylor coming to the Phog on Saturday. Our guys have changed and improved a lot since the last meeting. KJ only scored 4 and the bench/Rice contributed just 2 pts. Also, Harris played 36 min but only scored 2 pts. Gradey’s 24 pts. and Jalen’s 23 pts. were our only significant contributors. So, I expect much more scoring from KJ and Harris on Saturday, and a couple guys off the bench will contribute enough to beat the Bears. I think I saw that Game Day was coming to Lawrence for the game. Fun, fun, fun, but KU must win this rematch.
