3 games into the season and 2 bluebloods already conquered.
Head hunting for a 3rd in a few weeks
-
@wissox MSU aināt no blue blue my friend
-
@kjayhawks Of course, but donāt spoil my narrative.
@BShark Still undefeated and even very accurately predicting scores in the process. Thinking my game thread starting game is rounding into shape.
-
That just felt like a dud. Crowd sucked (turns out there arenāt many Hawks or Spartans in Atlanta), the play sucked, just bleh all around. 2 weeks until dook

One thing we definitely need a lot of work on is penetration for easy lay up- - we have got to get that fixed and soon. ā Fouling a lot by getting beat off the dribble drive
-
Got game done for the start of the new season of Curse of Oak Island. 2 hour special at 8!
-
talking about KJā ankle hurting him pretty bad
-
Another pull it out at the end games from the new Phog. Zeke, Juan, Hunter Thank you. KJ had one of his Iām here but where am I games. Zack goes in and somehow gets zapped by a cattle prod on every move. We have some work to do like get back on defense for starters. Hunter is still out of sync so he will get even better. He is tied with Jokic in the hops department.
-
I didnāt know that.
-
Wissox your score prediction was excellent.
-
If we couldāve made a FT my prediction wouldāve worked haha. Definitely not a great night but a good enough night. Tons to work on which is as expected
-
@Zabudda Your Zach comment is making me laugh.
-
@Zabudda needs to pass like jokic
-
@patoh3 I thought Zach played hard and hustled after some boards. Iād give him crap about missing bunnies but hell even Hunt missed a dunk lol
-
@jayballer67 I agree. KJ looked earthbound. Like a bird that couldnāt fly.
-
We did well recovering when bidunga and storr had 4. Didnt miss a beat.
-
@kjayhawks I think Zach hustled and tried his best, but he seemed a little out of control.
-
Do we want Dook to win this?
-
@approxinfinity I think last years lack of depth wouldāve been exposed in a game like this.
-
@wissox no question with the foul trouble we had tonight
-
Anyone have the plus and minusās for this game?
-
+/- Hunt 11, Juan 13 , Mayo 10, Rylen 16, KJ 8, Coit -9, Storr -3, Flory -4, Zach -2, Kease 0
-
Diggy has struggled the last couple games.

Last year when they played their āCā game they tended to get whipped. Iād say this is fair to call a C game or possibly worse. This team will get so much better.

Yeah I am thinking his minutes likely fade away when Shak returns.
-
@BShark Likely so unless it causes spacing issues.
-
Who is Shak?
-
@wissox Shakeel Moore. He fractured his foot and is rehabbing his way back. He is a guard from Mississippi St. He is known as a good defender.
-
@patoh3 Thanks, forgot about him.
-
Warning, half a rant here! Read no further if you were happy with tonightās performance!
Son of a biscuit lover, that was 100% ugly!!!
I know we won, but Iām am just steaming over the defense tonight. Very un-Self like.
Iām counting the days until Self blows a gasket over this truly clueless defense. So many possessions had entry level mistakes tonight. When I can point em out, you know something is very wrong. Wow. Ugly.
And then there was one possession where MSU got FOUR offensive rebounds!
Iām thankful we won, but not looking forward to watching this pathetic display. Itās gonna be a long season. The offense better bring it every night or weāre gonna struggle.
-
@approxinfinity said in Beat Izzy Beat Sparty:
I dont want anyone cut from the rotation. Solid personnel management tonight.
I think Self ruined the mojo and flow by starting Zeke tonight. He should have waited til Oakland.
-
IMO as others have mentioned, drop coverage with Hunter on the ball screens seems like something they must consider doing. Too much film of KU struggling here. Griffen might have made the play of the game where he had great awareness and got a block, that was a big time play that changed the momentum. So, there was defensive plays made when needed but it wasnāt pretty. Mayo and Hunt also came up with key steals/rebounds as well late.
Foul trouble was an issue and MSU playing 2 bigs forcing Self to play Bidunga at the 4 with Adams saddled with 2 fouls. It worked on Offense as KU got into the paint and got Flory three dunks but defensively, I could tell they have not practiced it much, if at all. Booker had one where Flory never left the paint before he took his shot, the same area Hunt was already in, so that leads me to believe Flory did not know his assignments playing the 4. Heās more mobile than Hunt so it was kind of alarming to see how much room he was giving his man who was camped on the perimeter.
I definitely wanted to see this combo out on the floor but it definitely needs some work defensively.
-
Usually, I can tolerate Jay Bilus during games, but not during the Champions Classic where it becomes a Duke propoganda/love fest. Iām sure glad Duke lost. I didnāt stay up for the second half and wonāt take the time to watch a replay. How did Jay take the loss after declaring during our game that Duke had the most talent of any team in the country?

Hmm, Iām not quite that concerned. About what I was expecting for a team with so many new pieces. November basketball. If we look like this in February that will be alarming.
-
I still see hope for Zack. He was in the middle of every play while he was in, showing hustle and desire. But he was so sped up it turned into fumble finger results. I think (hope) with more playing time the hustle and desire will win out.
-
Seems we just mimic the Chiefsā¦ staying atop, undefeated, with ugliness.
Juan was our second-highest scorer. Thatās a bad sign.

Plus we knew already the defense was going to be a concern coming in. Thereās a lot of work to be done there.

@stoptheflop He said - āwhat a bunch of overhyped, preppy ass, pansy ass pretty boys. This team is a steaming pile of dog doo and wonāt be ranked in the top 25 by the middle of Decemberā.
Oh wait - that was me.
-
@nuleafjhawk very much looking forward to Self making 1st rounders out of Storr and Griffen while Dukeās OAD talent languishes under Scheyer.
Can cross ācrampingā off the list of magic bullet used excuses! Lol
-
The kid from Duke is 17. I will refrain from making fun of a 17 year old from now on.
-
nvm
-
@BShark which part is bizarre. Sorry, i half assedly tried to shovel through the piles of dukeperbole but didnt get to anything significant other than that his parents had 2 sets of twins, he being one of the second set, and that one of the first set died shortly after birth.

Iām sorry it was late at night and I was thinking of the Filipowski situation.
-
Bragg is only 17? If true no wonder the hype.
-
@BeddieKU23 Yeah, saw a tweet about it. Flagg is his name!
-
@wissox and unlike KU prodigies who only stay a year or less, Flagg will be at Duke for 20 years.
-
@BShark oh yeah! Totally weird.
