Even with being fouled, we’ve missed a ton of shots at the rim.
-
Interior game outside of Perry - NOTHING.
Does that put pressure on our guards to force their game?
UGLY!

@wissoxfan83 This one is on Self. No making any adjustments. Just getting killed on penetration and second chance points in the second half. Absolutely no interior D. Why no Mickelson I can’t understand.

Yes
-
Valentine should not be touching the ball…
-
Again, want to see PT minute distribution of the 4 man 5 rotation.
Bragg/Mickelson v Traylor/Lucas
-
Gave the game away in the last 5 minutes…
-
First question for Self:
YOur best big play this summer was Hunter Mickelson. Why so little PT?
-
BAD execution. Should have taken it to the hoop.
-
@Bwag 14 vs 32 min
-
No rebounding. Msu boys just flat out want it more. Tired of that same ole story… And we have absolutely got to start getting Big Men who are actually big and actually men
-
We didn’t need to lose this game
-
@globaljaybird Gonna take that quart to wash away the taste of this one.

We have them. Just don’t fricken play them
-
Very disappointing loss…
-
@Bwag sorry I disagree
-
Guess we’re not going undefeated
-
Our guards killed us, missed ft’s, ll missing easy baskets
-
@cragarhawk look at at production per minute.
Game 1
Bragg /Mickelsson highest EFF I think.
They get very little PT in this game.
Self has a glaring blind spot and it costs us over and over.
-
Free Diallo. Bench Lucas.
-
Whelp. hope self learned something about his coaching strategy tonight.
-
@cragarhawk We are outrebounded. Our worst rebounders are getting majoriy of minutes.
NO defense against those stats
-
@Bwag I would argue the opponent skews those numbers. However. I may give you Bragg. That has yet to be seen though in my opinion. But if we’re gonna hang our season on guys like Lucas and Michelson. I have lil faith in that
-
Eww what just happened here
-
@Eric-san hit some 3’s late, we couldn’t hit, Selden Mason and Dg drove every time and missed
-
@Bwag Not just Mick either…DG played very poorly & Greene set on the bench the final 5 min in a shooters game so what do we do? Grind it out, 2’s for 3’s, bad ball, with an assassin on the pine. I’m really shakin my head over this one men. PPP period!
-
LL 14 mins/Traylor 18 mins
HM 3 mins/Bragg 11 mins
-
@brooksmd Bragg not ready yet.
-
If I were a journalist in the presser after this game, I don’t think I would be able to help myself from glaring at Self and saying “I hate you sometimes.”
-
Top two rebounders for KU Lucas and Traylor with 7 each…
-
@MoonwalkMafia good thing you’re not
-
@cragarhawk They beat the world.
HEM has demo’d with stats that Traylor is the nearly worst RB/min in self era & he doesn’t bring much production in offense.
Lucas about the same offensively.
Hunter blocks shots, gets hands on ball. Keeps it alive.
Not sure how the guards got so screwed up this game but if you don’t have an inside game, how much pressure does that put on them. Bragg was 2/2 but how many minutes did he play.
This is a disaster. Self recruits incredible talent and then leaves it on the bench.
-
Devonte’ Graham, FGM = 1-9 3PM = 0-4 FTM = 2-2
Grahman needs to sit !!
-
@Crimsonorblue22 You’re blind and too far gone in the Bill Self fan club if you’re not upset with him right now.
-
is Selden injured? If so is his 3 inch vertical and pursuit D better than svi’s ability?
-
@MoonwalkMafia I wouldn’t say hate though.
-
@DanR He must be hurt. No other explanation.
-
100% on Self.
Player rotation absolutely a disaster.
The bigs he plays don’t pass the stat nor the eyeball test. LOSE/LOSE
and we are 1 - 1 because of it.
-
Couldn’t finish at the rim in the second half, missed FTs at key juncture, unfathomable coaching decisions + but biggest problem was complete breakdown on defense the last 10+ minutes. We got no stops. If they happened to miss a shot, they got the rebound. No interior presence at all. Traylor does nothing on the defensive end inside.
-
Very poor game for Graham and yet he was the leader in assists with a measly 4.
KU 12 assists, Valentine 12 assists
MSU 9 blocks, KU 1 block
KU 3-15, 20% from 3…
Several front end misses of 1 and 1…
-
I don’t like the Champions Classic anymore. What is KU now 1-4?
-
@VailHawk So funny! But so sad, because it’s true… I thought he had cured himself of flailing towards the basket, trying to draw fouls, instead of just using your athleticism and trying to score. Like he did in Korea. But, alas, that must have been a Korean dream also
-
Bragg had zero rebounds in 11 minutes. Hunter 1 board in 3 minutes.
Just an observation.
-
@Bwag Yep. I was watching UK and was impressed with what Cal does with freshman. He is better at getting his players ready and playing defense well. Been that way the last five years. Self needs to take notice.
-
@Bwag the wug means very lil to me. It obviously wasn’t much of an advantage anyways. Ppl will remember NC’s. That’s about it honestly. I agree that Traylor is a terrible rebounder. Ellis not much better. For all he does do… When for the love of God is he gonna get above the rim. Probly never by now… Have to start recruiting better or actually developing the players we do recruit. Cause this team looks no different than the team that lost to Wichita st
-
@JayHawkFanToo Graham had 3 asssists in 1sth half I think… means 1 in 2nd half.
-
@cragarhawk That is my opinion also. Exact same team as last year.

Our best Shot blocker sat on bench and was in warm ups towards end of game.
Crying shame
