This team doesn't mess around and looks serious all the time. They don't seem uptight at all and play heads up defense. I watched Tiller all game and he was hustling and doesn't give ground in the paint. Elmarko is a wild card to an opposing defense he's sneaky fast and fearless. He's very athletic and I think his shots will start falling. Jamari is an asset as a 6th man. He can defend about anywhere and now his shot is swishy. Flory goes along doing his job and wham he can take over. Other centers find out he is no push over real quick and there is none who can keep up with his agility and quickness on the blocks and he can score on you at any time and go get lobs like crazy. Tiller and Flory both weren't ready for a couple of deep drives and quick passes from DP. It looked like DP got tired and it was to be expected. He is lightning quick and will burn you from deep, mid range and layups. Three of his lay ups where like how did he do that. Melvin you just keep on putting pressure on their guards. He is not just quick he is down right faster than ya'll. This could become a nightmare team on both ends and glory be Jayden Dawson our 6'5" 205' guard made a three which is his specialty and being a senior should be able to figure it out. We have a long rest before NCST and I'm not sure is a true home court for them in a Raleigh venue. If we can beat them then we have two kinda cup cakes and our first five conference games whether away or home are winnable until ISU in Ames. I hope we are rolling by then. It may be a dream but 15-3 warms me all over. If i'm that warm I will get sweet snuggles all night from my love.

Tre White Highlights vs. Missouri (20 Pts, 13 Rebs, 3 Asts)
https://youtu.be/x_wuoDXYLCI Thank you for the highlight clips. He is money at the line and that heady three to end the half could be play of the game. He is maybe the most alert and comfortable player on the team. Size, quickness, experience and talent just hints at how good this team can be.

@RockChalkinTexas-0 there's something weird going on, where Crimsonorblue22 and crimsonorblue22 appear to be considered the same account when logging in, but then are really separate accounts in the db. Doesnt surprise me. our moving the data over was a hack. But, we'll get it straight. @crimsonblu22 you may have to choose one of the two "new" accounts, ie. @crimsonblu22 or @crimsonorblue22 and roll with that, and I'll bump the rep and post count to match what it was on @Crimsonorblue22

@wissox83 welcome back!

@crimsonblu22 im sorry. I was a little high falootin’ and indignant when you said you couldnt log in. That would frustrate me as well.

Had to change user name and email. Hoping I can change back to my old email as I used my work email just to get back in. Would rather not use work email though.

always used my user name DanR to log in before, so the switch to the email login was basically seamless. I didn't even have to change my avatar back or anything. I also just changed my password back to what I used before. Passwored12335! Just kidding.

I'm a tech doofus so I'm super proud of myself for just scamming my way back onto these pages.

On rivalry Sunday for me, wow it was a big one. KU-Misery and then Bears Packers. That actually was a very good game, but no one cares out there in Chiefs country.
So my take on what's been going on. I'm really loving this years team. Flory is becoming more and more what we thought he'd be. Not sure I can remember a big with his explosive hops. He comps to Doke somewhat but it looks different. The price of DP coming back is the little flurry we saw of success from Elmarko and Jamari takes a back seat to DP and his amazing game. We're gonna need those guys so I hope we can count on them as we did in Vegas.
Council drives me nuts.
White had an awesome game. I saw enough Illinois last year that I wasn't all that excited to see he was playing for us. But I'm impressed and he is indispensible to our success this year.
I hate the helter skelter style of ball Misery plays. It's not pretty, not all that effective really. I watched Marquette do the same yesterday against UW. Didn't work, after a slow start, UW scored 86 points in the last 30 minutes of game time.
Did you know KU is the only team to not allow a team to shoot 30% on 3's this year? Is Bill Selfs old defense back? Seems like it hasn't been strong for a while, but the lack of timeouts quickly after our opponents score an unguarded 3 is an indicator that it's not happening very often.
DP's game was kind of strange. He had some really ugly shots. He also had some really pretty shots. Rest that hammy young man.
RCJHKU!

Nice to see this team with such good D. 8th in the country good. It saw us thru some scoring droughts. Then, when the shots start falling again, things heat up quick. Hope we keep it up, and that we see a healthier DP against NC State next Saturday.

Nice stat drop on the 3pt defense. Some of it is pure luck but I do think the switching defense and the length/athleticism of the team has created fewer good shots for opponents from 3. I see improvements when contesting shots, close outs. This is a good defensive team when they play together.
Upcoming games against NC State & Davidson will test this 3pt defense as both are shooting near 40% as a team. NC St has 4 guys with more made 3's then anyone on KU (35% of their offense this season from 3). 4 guys are individually shooting over 47% from 3 so they look like they will be a difficult assignment on the road next weekend.
