Early season feedback on kuballin’s off season analysis



  • I have to give kuballin credit on his Zeke analysis. Kid is a baller and can handle. Def is translating to p4 thus far. I think kuballin has softened his stance on Juan, and Juan has done well this year with a slightly reduced role and more scorers around him. Also, our defense hasn’t been a dumpster fire, def has plenty of room to improve but the effort has been there.



  • Juan is awesome. Game goes to hell when he is out but I am hoping Shak can change that.



  • @approxinfinity Yeah Juan’s job is don’t turn it over…ATTACK from the tip and score when needed

    He’s done these things especially against msu second half.

    I also saw him defensively turn it up granted it was Oakland but if that’s the Juan we get against Duke…mark it down - we will win

    Juan and Shak/Diggy are good 1-2 punch at the pg spot

    Juan isn’t my favorite pg clearly and he’s be baddd at times but for this team with 30 mpg instead of 35-38….he can easily be what we need!

    Zeke was easy to peg because he can win one on one and get his shot off at anytime (even against tourney teams). He’s better defensively than @Texas-Hawk-10 said and his rebounding has been outstanding

    Zeke’s a baller and effects the game even when his shot doesn’t drop



  • Let’s leave pegging to the marvel universe.



  • @dylans oh dont be modest, you can tell us you are a master at peg solitaire text

    Well then, go fuck yourself too!

    Seriously not joking. You’re the worst.



  • I’m close to going full KUballin10. That’s the most upset with basically a 20 point win I can remember being. There is a lot of truly alarming stuff happening that sometimes makes me wonder how the hell Bill won so many games.



  • @BShark Friendly confines of AFH covers many sins lol. It’s why we are so great in the regular season and haven’t gotten to the mountaintop as much as we’d like

    Bills stubborn but hopefully he pulls the right strings like in 2022



  • @kuballin10 had some convos today and sounds like Bill is testing the new guys to see how “tough” they are with how they respond to being yanked. What is very intyto me is that Zeke is immune to it seemingly.



  • i missed the analysis. @BShark not happy with last night’s performance? What bits and pieces have you worried?

    I stated earlier that we’re not getting Griffen and Storr involved in any good way.

    Some things of worry, but it was a worthy opponent.



  • Offensively we got pretty much whatever we wanted. Just missed, conservatively, about 30 open 3s. Bill is still doing a ton of tinkering and again nobody played more than 30 minutes. Would’ve been even more evenly distributed had Flory and Shak been more available. I’d think about a few tweaks here and there but it’s tough given we haven’t played a single game with our top 8-9 totally healthy.



  • I’m annoyed with Bill, not our performance. I’m just a dummy and I’ll get over it lol.



  • From what Bill was saying, sounds like we very well could see more and more of Hunter & Flory on the floor at the same time

    Do you think it’s possible his act is growing tiresome after all these years? Have we all overdosed? Time for a new regime, or is that blasphemous?

    The winning is nice 🙂



  • @jayballer67

    It needs some work, but the potential is there on both ends. The biggest thing defensively is that Flory and Hunt cannot camp in the lane at the same time so if there’s a stretch 4 on the floor that’s an issue. I pointed this out in the Mich St game how it was an issue, KU just got lucky the stretch 4 missed all his 3’s. On offense, just about every possession I can recall has ended up with a Hunt/Flory dunk. Hunt’s passing ability if he’s in the high/low action has been deadly so far.



  • @BeddieKU23 Against a lot of teams I am not sure if we can get away with it on defense. Flory is still totally lost on that end but I think works best as the main big.

    Definitely a method to the madness but I watched this game and I saw guys overthinking instead of just playing basketball. The new to the program guys especially. Now, I don’t watch every game for other programs but it seems to be much less of an issue integrating new players from what I’ve watched of other teams.

    Some people will blab about Bill’s “system” but I think that is largely bullcrap and he needs to get with the times a bit given how many new players we seem to have every year. If he needs a team full of guys he has had for 3+ years to do anything in March that is an issue.
