Short Handed Hawks vs Cincy Game Thread
-
@Gorilla72 I thought he actually looked pretty calm probably just telling the guys to have fun and play hard. What else can he do, we ain’t anything great with Kevin and Hunter so this isn’t surprising. KU was underdogs by 1.5 points, I glad I picked Cincinnati to cover. I’ve start bet against us because it makes feel a little better.
-
I don’t know… this still could get interesting. Shooting 32% and 0-7 from three. Can’t get much worse than that and not quite out of it yet.

@BeddieKU23 yeah I can’t bring myself to get upset at this one. Onto the
dancenext year. Just lack the horses.
-
Everyone looks afraid to shoot
-
I agree with Fran shockingly, Johnny just hasn’t looked like a NBA player
-
They get the small carnival rim in the second half
-
As much as i understand its the new order of things, knowing Jamari and Elmarko are gone after this year really is a kick in the nuts.
-
dajuan best pg in america lmao
-
Self doesn’t care about the Big 12 Tournament and never has. Was hoping the players would be playing free and loose knowing there’s not really an option behind them.
This group just has no killer instinct in them and that’s really the biggest downfall of Harris with this group. He’s the leader, but his quiet and passive personality has rubbed off as the personality of this team. I’d love to see Hunter step up as the leader next year and have the team take on his personality and play with an edge.
-
I thibk they felt bad for us and gave us a foul
-
Hard to make shots when not looking to score except for bunnies.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 i dont see hunter as a leader either, hes goofy.
-
EJ go get it
-
waiting for the rebound to bounce to him
-
lol Elmarko. Just grab the rebound and save the and one.
️
-
Hunter is a great Shaq to someone’s Kobe. Need a Kobe next year
-
@rcjhdraft him being voted as the 4th best in the conference is all you need to know about that. Elmarko has out played him today so far.

I didn’t say he was, I said I wish he would step up into that role because he plays with an edge and is as an asshole at times and this team needs that.
-
Still making some bonehead plays, but this is a new Elmarko that I like
-
let’s cut this to ten and regroup
-
nope
-
Shout out to our fans that still showed up for this tournament knowing we had zero chance of winning a game.
-
He really can’t shoot outside that midrange jumper
-
Fans, like us, are stuned. Just not used to this level of play
-
@BeddieKU23 for sure I do like him being aggressive tho, you can’t make a shot of you don’t take it.
-
How Elmarko was a 5 star is beyond me. With the way people change schools now maybe the rating scale should change to reflect what they will be their freshman year and not beyond.
-
Furphy needs to shoot more. He has shot only 3 times. Timber needs to change his name to Bricklayer.
-
Not sure which is worse, our shooting or the officiating. It’s a tie. Blech
-
Trio of Nick, Elmarko and Harris are 4-17 from field.
-
I honestly don’t think it was that was that bad of a half guys. We continue to miss layups and open 3s that just seems to be who we are as a team. We’ve had that same issue when Hunter and Kevin were here as well. If Juan makes a couple of those floaters and Nick hits one several good looks we are feeling good right now. I just don’t understand why we struggle so badly to make shots, even high percentage ones most highschool teams make.
-
Not making shots would be ok if we were a good defensive team. Lately that hasnt been the case.
-
We have 5 blocks so far.
-
Is it time for football yet?
-
I just want to see some effort. That’s all.
-
@RockChalkinTexas I hate saying it but we could lose our 3rd game this season by 20+ points. I’d venture to guess that hasn’t happened in my lifetime. Thats why this season has been so depressing. Preseason #1, championship or bust type feel after PR trip. Add in all the streaks broken with the 2018 season being vacated coupled with historically the worst conference season since the conference expanded to 12 or more teams. A lot of good streaks fell this season and will take decades to restore them if it ever happens again.
-
Well Cinci is only at 40% from the field but 41% from 3 and +6 on boards.

Can’t get here soon enough - -Dam who would of thought we would ever be saying something like that
-
@approxinfinity which is odd because early on in the season we looked solid defensively. I think teams have watched the film on our guys and realize they can drive to kick out for 3 easily. We all don’t guard the pick and roll worth a crap. We have gone under screens for shooters all season like a middle school C team.

Actually that’s bettr then what I expected that we had to put on the floor
-
For reference we’re 152nd in 3% Defense
-
I think these last three games or so that MAYVE Johnny isn’t ready for the NBA and ends up coming back
-
Nick you gotta take that bud
-
The pass to nick was at his shoes
-
I dont blame him
-
@jayballer67 he been steadily dropping and other players will show out in the tournament and likely drop him further. Unless something crazy happens I see zero chance he plays more than 2 more games this season.
-
Nick got the cold shoulder on the bench
-
Dooley doesn’t give a fudge
-
Juan!
-
New ball game. Let’s go!

MARI LETS GO
