Chatting KU Baylor hoops here
-
All our stats are moving towards the mean with the lineups playing late in the 1st and now that Baylor has changed to a man defense.
-
@JRyman Watched the game but was in a crowd and couldn’t follow it closely. I’ve seen enough over the season to see how ineffective he is, especially relative to our other options. I’m not saying he will never make a shot other than a dunk, which you point out he did, but it is going to be a rare occurrence.
-
Finally a good close out to a half.
Way to go Devonte Graham!
-
Nice finish by Devonte
-
@RockChalkinTexas I know they say that, and I sure hope I’m wrong. But missing 10 foot jumpers in the lane (which prompted my comment) doesn’t necessarily communicate upside and potential to me.
-
@wissoxfan83 agreed. Was just quoting what the “analysts” say.
-
Well, I was hoping for a 15-17 pt lead at the half given the way we started. 14 pts not bad, though…
-
Hunter and Perry need to stay on the floor second half. Things really changed inside without them - Traylor and Bragg are not cutting it today.
-
Oh boy. Doogie Gotlieb at the half. When will the first disparaging comment come?
-
I’d say we look pretty good…lololol…
-
@RockChalkinTexas I agreed with his too many touch fouls comment. They called one on Mason and Frank just stared, like really, you’re going to call that?
-
@DinarHawk One thing I’m not sure of is the BU change from zone to man defense as well.
-
@DinarHawk tray lie played good d!
-
@wissoxfan83 They shot 10 more FTs than we did - no way that should happen, especially at AFH.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 you mean traylor?
-
@DinarHawk at game couldn’t correct it
-
@Crimsonorblue22 oh ok no problem. He wasn’t bad but we need more rim protection.
-
Third on Mason - out for a while now…
-
@DCHawker I agree on your FT comment. It just seemed so many fouls were cheap. Just like the one on Frank right there.
-
Perry/Hunter inside good ball movement on the interior.
BU in man out of the gate in the 2nd.
-
Trying not to complain about officials but how was Perry getting hit on the arm on that dunk not a foul compared to all of Mason’s?
-
Ellis with da jam. Like it.
-
Wayne got fouled on that drive
-
@wissoxfan83 Yall are seeing things on those fouls against us.
-
Baylor has only taken 4 3 pointers. A far cry from their days of bombing them from all over.
-
@brooksmd I thought he got bumped on the drive.
-
Selden missed bg in corner
-
What happened to our exterior offense?
i know they went man but dang we are just trying to drive the paint. Our knockouts are late if we have any.
-
Gathers said something to Ellis running off the floor, made him laugh. Wonder what it was.
-
@wissoxfan83 heslip was the one who did that
-
@wissoxfan83 You know the refs would’ve called it if it was so. BTW, are Rico and Perry buds or what was that bump by Rico at the time out?
-
@brooksmd both played each other 4 years now
-
@RockChalkinTexas I was trying to remember his name, but it seems like they’ve always had some bombers.
How about Graham! I love that kid!
-
@wissoxfan83 Nice in-bounds D by DG.
-
@wissoxfan83 gives his all every time
-
KU needs to start rebounding. Baylor is killing them on the glass. This is going to be KU’s achilles heel all year and what they’ll have to overcome to be successful in March and April. This is also why Lucas is valuable to KU. He may not be the most skilled guy, but he is far and away KU’s best rebounder and where his value is to this team.
-
Dat’s why Mick should be on da floor.
-
Nice block.
Better spacing running the floor for an easy one.
-
Withey block? Bg is pleasing me!
-
There’s Mickelson! 3rd block
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 He is out best rebounder - although I’m not sure I would agree with “far and away” - the problem is that is all he does well. The offense really slows down when he is in the game.
-
Solid game from BG. Actually has shown some decent effort on D.
-
@DCHawker well Diallo speeds up our offense alright. Taking a shot the first time he touches it.
Kidding but it does seem that way at times.
He really needs to figure out the team concept.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 I don’t have the stats in front of me, but isn’t Baylor one of the NCAA’s best rebounding teams normally? Yahoo has us down 3 boards to them.
-
Baylor only one time out left
-
@DCHawker Spoke too soon. BG should never dribble.
-
@brooksmd Timing…
-
And 1
-
Mason!
-
@DCHawker KU is shooting well enough today where getting destroyed in rebounding doesn’t look like it’s going to hurt them, but there’s still a lot of time left.
There will be games where that’s not the case and KU will need to rebound to prevent teams from getting additional possessions and Lucas will have to be that guy even if KU has to play a little slower.
