I love this time of year…auburn - unc next - forget work tomorrow
Who’s starting the post game thread??? I got all sorts of positivity to spew about Juan (all American tonight), KJ the same!!!
Maybe Bill’s getting Storr squared away???
that would be you, homie
-
That was a gutsy win folks, a win to tell your kids about.
-
Juan has been absolutely lethal around the rim all season. Picking people apart.

-
@approxinfinity I’m not a big Juan guy but he has started the year great. I don’t think I’ve gotten on him one time thus far. Keep it up sir
-
Hot take: Hunter getting ejected won us the game.
He had a cold spell that was disaster earlier. We found a way to score as a team with him out, and Bidunga had like 3 offensive rebounds.
-
@approxinfinity Hunt was just off imo tonight after starting hot. I think it goes back to me saying not a player on this team should play more than 30 minutes outside of Juan without Shak
-
Let’s this sink in , I really think this could be huge later possibly when we face some adversity
-
If we get a home and away w/them, let’s do a fox or cbs or abc. Tnt anything but espn
-
@approxinfinity agreed. So glad my if hint gets ejected, we’re cooked was 100% wrong!
Good guys win again
-
KJ had 2 rebounds, 8 points… oh yeah, 3 steals and 3 blocks and 0 turnovers.
-
@approxinfinity KJ played the best defensive game of his career, Storr and Griffen were also solid on that end.
-
@approxinfinity I thought about this too… sometimes he can be a little bit of a black hole or allow his frustrations to impair his game… hindsight is always 20/20 and it’s great learning for a big man we may not get another year of.

@kuballin10 said in KU vs Duke Game Thread:
@kjayhawks He’s stepping up but wish Storr got more run 2nd half
Bill must have seen something he didn’t like
Pretty easy to see what he didn’t like. Every time he got in a situation where he was guarding flag or the other dude (kneuple??) he went for a steal and was left way out of position and it led to points for Duke.
-
@approxinfinity As soon as the game resumed after his ejection, i thought to myself ‘wait, Flory might actually be better for what we’re trying to do’
-
Probably the most underrated unnoticed play of the game was Juan chipping flag on that play late as they went back to the two man game with the freshmen. Getting him off balance blew up the play and forced them into something they didn’t want. Rewatch it. It was veteran high iq type stuff.

Yes Storr was better in the first and Griffen in the second, that’s why we have both lol
-
@benshawks08 exposed those poor handles we saw in late game situations we saw with UK
-
Future KU opponent Furman playing right now on the same floor on ESPNU
-
Don’t care what anyone says - -KJ was a Man tonight. Eight points, big buckets in clutch time, after Hunter is ejected-- but Eight points , Three Blocks , Three Steals, and Three assists an incredible job on Flagg when he was defending him
-
@SlimShaddy54 the stat line doesn’t come close to his energy and moxy tonight. He was an absolute force.
-
@approxinfinity haha nah - 75% of the board won’t see it! I’ll let another poster do it
Bill >>kuballin10 - I know hard to believe
Defensively turned up
Storr started was great
Juan was INCREDIBLE
KJ’s D won us this game
-
@kuballin10 It’s like watching the Grinch’s heart grow two sizes in real time. Figuratively of course. Cardiomegaly is real bad
-
Tonight’s game brought back a lot of old memories for me about Duke.
I have tried. I have tried, over the years, to soften my view of the world and that includes Duke.
F - PUKE!
They go out and play dirty then whine for every little call. Scheyer is a p*ssy! They can buy the best recruits. They can own the refs. But they remain the team America hates.
Hunter’s foot tap was wrong. He didn’t deserve to be ejected. And what about the guy who undercut him? Talk about a REAL RISK OF INJURY!
F - PUKE!
-
And I’m glad ratface was in attendance to see them lose again!
-
@StLJhawk said in KU vs Duke Game Thread:
Refs talking to duke players, “c’mon we’re trying to give you the game, help us out”
This is the reason I came here, and this is literally the first comment I scroll to… BS… ESPN put the word out: Duke wins this game.
-
@drgnslayr fffff emmm!!! We are more tied in with Unc via Roy ect
I’ll never cheer for them
-
@kuballin10 Are you feeling OK??
Glad you were able to see D2 give a D1 performance.
-
Gotta love that the officials were also clueless that, ya’know, once ejected you have to leave the court (not the building Fran you big meanie).
-
I am shocked the refs booted HD. F2s/ejections are reserved for egregious behavior and should be used responsibly. What is the point of F1s? No to mention, HD was getting mauled for 10 straight minutes before that, with no love from the zebras. So he got frustrated, and lashed out. F1 and move on. Let the best players decide the game.
-
@drgnslayr Was Bobby Hurley at the game? Or is Bobby just rat face jr. I know you meant Coach K.
-
@patoh3 Tonight I saw the Juan Bill sees……controlled the pace of the game from the jump
ATTACKED
Shot a clutch 3
Had an And1
Shut the other teams guards down defensively
I’m talking all American stuff tonight - efff best game he’s potentially played
KJ was the same - A STUD DEFENSIVELY
Flory got huge minutes/experience
HOW ABOUT EVERYONES FREE THROWS???
“We are tough and we got guards” - Goat Bill
Zeke needs to pull the trigger quicker but effects the game in other ways
-
@P-H-C I really couldn’t say it better. I’ve never seen such a ridiculous F2. The officials lost control.
-
Even if Duke had won, their true fans would have wanted HD to be in there. No one wants to be handed a game like that w/out earning it outright.

This post is deleted!

@approxinfinity PHOF
-
@kuballin10 this times 100. Did we just become best friends? Want to do karate in the garage?
-
The insane number of posts. Holy smokes. Wow Jayhawks.
-
@Zabudda sorry
I’ll go back to lurking and dreaming of a PHOF…
-
KJ Adams is the G-D man tonight. Owned Flagg tonight on defense. Dejuan owned Flagg on offense. Flagg couldn’t do anything to stop Dejaun getting to the rim and causing chaos all night.
-
This is also the best KU game I’ve been to in person. The only other contender is the 2020 Baylor game in Waco when Baylor was #1 and KU was #3.
-
To paraphrase LSU, SUCK THAT JAYHAWK D*** DOOK
-
@FarmerJayhawk there you are. You were quiet tonight!
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 you weren’t at the last mizzou v ku game in the phog? My condolences.
-
@PharmacyHawk yep! Out with friends and I try to stay off my phone
-
@FarmerJayhawk fair enough. All my “friends” are too busy being adults with their wives/families. Gross, right?
Edit: kidding of course all
Happy Thanksgiving Jayhawks.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 I’m glad you experienced that game in person!
-
Cooper is a baller. No doubt. But he’s 17 and he’s already choked twice now! He will no doubt choke in March, too, because he’s a friggin’ kid.
He’s “fool’s gold” for Duke. Everything rides on him. I prefer our team full of experienced players and a 5-year PG who already has a ring.
Scheyer is Calipari2. Speaking of Calipari… I’ve heard the first “buyer’s remorse” is going down in Hogtown! I’m shocked! lol
-
Bucketeer of the day award to @Texas-Hawk-10 for cheering them on to victory!!
-
Just read something funny. For the Champions classic ESPN’s matchup predictor gave Duke a 70% chance to beat Kentucky. Tonight it was a 69% chance for them to beat us.
Ya’ll know how those two games worked out for duke?
