Manhattan Jaspers, Who?

@DanR said in Manhattan Jaspers, Who?:
Jank might be more reliable than Timberlake
Was gonna say the same thing
-
OK, Nick, that was a pretty nice 12 footer
-
El Marko starting to loosen up a bit. Looks good too!
-
What can you say? I think this team is pretty good
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich said in Manhattan Jaspers, Who?:
Parker Braun is not bad
If Parker is not bad, could we also say he’s good?
-
@stoptheflop We could not in good faith go so far quite yet
-
So hard to gauge against this type of competition. I think the team could be very very good when it matters
-
Like the looks of this team. Competition for playing time is in effect.
-
Good that our frosh get extended playing time and McDowell is nice.
-
McDowell is going to be really good by the time he’s done
-
I have the feeling this will be one of my favorite KU teams. I just get that vibe. I like all these dudes
-
Is it just me or does Elmarko look like JayZ?
-

Travis Releford tough.
-
@dylans slightly scowlier but yep
-
Quite the line for Christian’s brother: 4/4, 5 rbs, 3 blks and 10 pts. He good!
-
“I don’t see it with Furphy” geniuses reacting to him playing while still hurt against Hays.
-

I’m ready to play him over #25 this year.
-
Elmarko and McDowell sporting baby blue sneakers.

Not naming names, but someone on this board.

@RockChalkinTexas Looks teal on my tv. - I kinda wonder if the bright shoes contributed to the early travel call. (Hard to miss)
-
Wilhite!
-
Coolwhip Wilhite Coolwhip Wilhite Oh no
-
Jank is actually a good basketball player
-
Man, 99 two games in a row! damn
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich They tried to hit 100 tonight! I figured they would hold the ball. Glad they shot it.
-
Okay see you all in 14 hours
-
Okay that was good. Looked like Elmarko felt something click.
-
10 dimes for Elmarko tonight
-

My 8 year old is so disappointed we couldn’t get to 100 again lol
-

He is better with the ball in his hands and Bill let him do that a bit tonight. Obviously Juan will continue to be the guy.

Hawktease!
-
Still playing 4th set in Ames.
-
Ole Bill likes what he has. All defined roles this early, already good chemistry, strong team defense. It might be rough the nights we don’t shoot great but we’re #1 for some good reasons.
-
We play Chaminade on my birthday!!!
-
Don’t think we saw Kev/Juan/HD after the 13 minute mark. LOVE that. Team also won that stretch by 5 and probably closer to 10 before the major walk-on minutes.
-
5th set in Ames. Go Hawks
-
Back to students sitting courtside (for the last time this year), Michigan St is like Cameron in that the first 10 rows around the court is student seating. The section above the student seating is elevated so the alums can sit and still see if the students stand. A thread on Rupp Rafters discussed the same thing I mention and the posters complained there was no energy for most games at Rupp with the alums sitting courtside. Nuff said.
-
I just wanna say and don’t take this wrong and I realize the opponent but I think e have some back up players that can really give us some help for periods of time without a lot of drop off.
1st, I am really liking Furphy. He shows no hesitation , got a nice shot and looks solid. you realize this kid is still suppose to be in High School right? - -Parker Braun is little athletic - -little better then what I thought - -I realize Jackson hasn’t been a back up but very solid - - McDowell did ok for the time he was in. They just played solid , but I’m impressed with Furphy
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich I’m not good at math but does that mean we’re averaging 99 points a game? What if we do that all season?
-
Then it means our defense only needs to be half decent for us to rule the world.
Also, saw someone call Johnny “The Wizard of Aus” and I’d like to express my support for that

Hanni busted this out on the radio broadcast
-
Also shout out to Elmarko who had 10 assists and 9 points tonight
-
Almost done watching game. Great showing by the boys. Ready to see how we stack up against Kentucky. Really happy we have a legit freshman class. Hopefully we get to watch them develop for a couple years.
-
Fuuuurphy!
I told ya’ll!
I’m going to amend my preseason lineup thoughts.
PG: Harris
Furphy / Furphy / Furphy / Furphy fills out the rest!
He’ll need somebody to guard the little ones, set him up for 3s, lobs.
Nicely done Furphy.
As usual, a downer note or two: We’re gonna need to score down low more often with Hunter. Post it, brotha. no more 8 footers. no complaints about his shot from distance, but we’ll need him inside more at some point.
OK, first good look at Jamari. Does he have hops? Maybe that’s why the Travis comparisons? Not evident tonight. But liked his game otherwise.
Loved the KJ actions. Dunk city. Elmarko teased us with some quickness to the hoop a few times. nice. Jeez, just saw that he had 10 assists! awesome for him. Nick cannot play D. He’s gonna get the hook a lot when big boy athletes are in front of him. He never quite got set for his release from 3 today either.
Great all around game from McCullar.
-
His passing certainly flashed tonight. Need his trajectory to keep moving forward because he’s a heck of a talent if he figures it out.
-
Some random thoughts.
Will Furphy become an OAD? I had read that NBA teams were raving his potential.
I would love to see Elmarko use his speed and drive more to the basket.
Hunter was solid on D in this game. How will he defend quality Bigs remains to be seen.
Can Timberlake improve his D.
HCBS seems to have lost a lot of weight, he is looking good.
-
I think Timberlake will improve his D plus he had 5 or 6 boards. He is one sweet swisher who doesn’t force anything.
-
Juan will get his props from the Big 12 writers and coaches. He is an elite defender and is magic finding the open guys. I think he will reward us with clutch scoring too. McDowell is a big guard who excited me with his poise and no fear play. Elmarko is just good. Johnny Baskets says hello world!
