KU vs the smart people game chat
-
Nice in-bounds!
-
Can we not get a defensive rebound?
-
Big time
-
Finally got his token board
-
If we could rebound, we’d be up 15 or 20
-
TTech lost Terrance Shannon and Kev to the portal seemingly 4 years ago and they’re both probably all Americans this year. That’s a lot of talent to let walk, but all the disfunction there maybe these guys saw the handwriting on the wall.
-
Playing with our food tonight, i see.
-
The fact that Jamari hasn’t played the main minutes of the bench is so frustrating! It doesn’t make us better long term. I don’t get why McDowell continues to not play. The kids the only reason they beat Tennessee and Indiana. Game changed when he played that spot with the main 4. He should be getting the minutes to grow for March. The bench shooter role is filled and that’s furphy. Timberlake has shown he can’t defend high level defenders, he’s lost that role.
-
Kev has 1 point shy of half our points.
-
Kevin is the reason this team is better than average
-
Flagrantish
-
Nick!!!
-
Yeah no question
-
If my math is right kev has almost half our points.
-
Nick showing some confidence finally
-
I hope Yale fans are saying, why do we always get someone who has a career night against us?

You’re doing math? Might as well be cheering for Yale, nerd.
-
Every one of nicks threes looks like it’s not going in to me. He must have a slightly different arc than I’m used to
-
Nick finally playing well, dirty dirty foul there
-
KEVIN!!
-
No way juando was going up for a layup again
-
Hot take but start Nick and bring Elmarko off the bench

Who says I’m not?
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich that is a molten hot one

Wow, what a difference one game makes. Last game, I was proposing to just leave Nick on the bench. So, maybe Coach does know what he’s doing.
-
Heat check!
-
Bank!!!
-
Timberlake is playing slow Ivy League guys. He’s shown all season he can’t guard top 25 type teams
-
Hunter better get a basket to preserve his double double streak
-
I appreciate that Kev didn’t celebrate the bank shot
-
Nick finally showed up, he’s more involved defensively and that has lead to his offensive output
-
Kev enfuego
-

This is a fair point, although Yale doesn’t seem that slow.
-
Illinois destroying misery
-
Yale’s gonna give someone a game in the tournament if they get there
-
@stoptheflop Not happening tonight.
-
Good game. Could have been a dud.
Rock chalk and happy holidays!!
-
And just like that we turn up and roll. Can we do that… like… more?
-
Nick - - -maybe ? - thee has finally been a Nick sighting
-
A pretty solid second half on both ends, I’ve almost forgotten what a fast start is at this point.
-
Big time end. Kev is an All American
-
Team has shown they can play very good defense when they feel like it. Halfcourt offense is still a work in progress.
-
I’m really starting to wonder when Juan is open, WHY isn’t he shooting that three more ? - -Hitting 46 % for the year, you got to take what a team gives you
-
Mari didn’t see more minutes based off of Timberlake performance. That’s fine little surprised with Hunter stinking up the place that Braun didn’t see a few more minutes.

@BShark looks like there are maybe 3 or 4 KU players who would rather be playing bball than anything else on Dec 22nd.
Will say, there is a big time flu thing going around Lawrence. We know KJ was sick before and during Indiana game. Would not be shocked if Hunter has it right now.
-
ya Hunter just didn’t look engaged tonight at all, but Kevin picking up the slack
-

Yeah Yale had 16 points in 16 minutes to start the second half. That decided the game.
-
@BShark Just a bit worse than the 14 that KU scored in the first 14 minutes. Ugly game for all.

First half of the UConn game was elite as well. UConn hit like 6 or 7 garbage shots to make it look better than it really was.

Weren’t we supposed to replace Morris by now? We need more help … maybe Furphy will step up and mature quickly….? Not sure about marko at this point… he distresses me a lot more than Timberlake. Nick can score… he’s still adjusting to D1. Good to see Kevin being JWill. He will try and drive and shoot any place any time. And I agree… Hunter looked sick or something. This team always looks on the edge of losing. Not a lot of wiggle room with this group.
