KU/Tennessee Game Thread

Poor ending to a similar half.
-
Tennessee 17 turnovers in the 1st half. I knew they were sloppy but 17 - -we need to take advantage of that
-
Played well on D again. That’ll be our calling card all year. Just need to get better at capitalizing.
-
Tough when we give it back 10 times
UT playing without their best player - imagine if we had to do that
17 turnovers and up 8….this is a legit team @FarmerJayhawk
Frustration is our play good D and scrap is great will get us to sweet 16 or elite 8 but the great offensive teams beat the good defensive teams in basketball every time…
-
I see us tying it up at 45 pts,

Well that’s about of as an ugly of a half that I’ve seen in awhile. So maybe now that’s out of the way we can get this thing turned around. - - 8 - -28 not gonna win you many games. - -Tennessee is a 29.9 % three point shooting team so - -OF COURSE in the 1st half they shoot over 50 % from the three. - -go figure.

@jayballer67 you don’t remember the 2nd half yesterday?

Lol , ya I do. - - hoping for not a repeat. - - 2nd half yesterday - -1st half tonight
-
Tennessee is a bad shooting team but we are also giving them wide open looks.
Honestly, the only thing that’s really pissed me off is the officials putting Harris on the bench with bad calls. That was also probably a delay of game on Tennessee to end the half.
-
McCuller forced some shots. JWill needs to drive and kick out. Gradey started getting active the last 8 minutes, keep him going. Get a rim protector.
-
The first half kind of looked like an actual battle for Atlantis
-
@Zabudda Kevin was open he just isn’t able to buy a bucket
-
Famous last words, but… I don’t think Tennessee will shoot nearly as well the second half, nor do I think KU will shoot nearly as poorly. Bill knows Barnes. KU by 2
-
I also think there’s some fatigue setting in with KU. Our starters have played a lot of minutes the last two days and lot of shots look like tired legs.
-
So, looking at the glass as half full… JW, Gradey, KJ and Juan are 3-19. Juan on the bench almost half of the half. Down 10 on the boards; JW with just 1. Shooting less than 30% from inside and outside the arc. Starters are gassed after playing too many minutes the past 2 days. And, down just 8. Not saying we are going to win, but this is winnable…

True and Very True - -Tennessee is only a 39 % Fg shooting team - -& a 29 % 3 pt % shooting team but like you say if we ever decided to guard might be different. - -17 turnovers and those kind of shooting numbers - - no excuses
-
Opening play is a screen to Kevin not Gradey for 3 - What are we doing Bill?
-
KJ!
-
KJ! Be aggressive. Foul some folks out!
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 I hate this excuse UT was in OT yesterday
There is no excuse
-
KJ is a strong ass kid
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich which is bad - wide open looks when we hang our hat on D
-
Double pump again/
-
Juaaaaaan

That’s the problem with only having 3.5 players
-
Hang in the air KJ
-
Don’t look now but our leading scorer is Joe…
-
No box out. Again

There is no excuse
Even with the OT, they still had a lot more bench minutes and their first game was a blowout so their starters didn’t play big minutes in that one. They are a fresher team, that’s a reality.
-
What an idiot
-
Kinda weak call?
-
On the KU broadcast they talking saying something must of happen to Kevin. - -Ran off the court and not even on the bench.- -
-
Is Bobby really hurt?
-
Zach as two guard if this keeps up.
-
@Zabudda It didn’t look good when he got hurt. Looked like a hammy or groin to me.

We are definitely feeling 3 games in 3 days. Very dead legs. No bench.

Doing the same thing he has all year. - -Grady not hittin the shot when he does shoot the three tonight
-
Joe is 4-7; everyone else 7-28… Juan isn’t playing for the next 10 minutes and with Bobby out, Joe is going to get big minutes. Probably not a winnable game at this point, so let’s get guys some experience…
-
Time to see what we are made off with no Juan
-
I believe
-
KJ is Doke Version 2
-
@DCHawker joe’s 1 game we need him to be decent at least he has been
He in self’s mind is a 2 but I think he could be molded into a 1
-

Just minus 5 inches and 50 pounds
-
Will he make a FT all year?
-
How about an MJ Rice breakout?
-
What happened to McCullar?
-
-
I miss making alley oops. Maybe MJ is the guy?
-
JOE
-
Yesss!!
