Watching Diggy trying to knock Illinois out of the triple bye in the BIG tournament which would help Wisconsin get the triple bye. Go Diggy!

Anybody else remember watching this game that is still the record book forever stats on so many levels? I do. I was listening to Max call it. Before time when I had no cable.

@RockChalkinTexas-0 I remember but couldn't watch. Wish I had! Is that the last game against Pitino for KU?

@wissox83 wonder if we could find it on YouTube?

So sorry to hear about Perry. A true #Jayhawk.
-
Did this come from Perry's insta account? if it's from Facebook it's probably fake. That platform is a wasteland of slop.
Rock Chalk!

@bskeet Gary Bedore had confirmed it was true yesterday.

That sucks for Perry. I guess the undertone of a season-ending injury at this point is that it may be career-ending.
(As for the request for the source, I hate to do that, but this is the social-media polluted environment we live in. A player's instagram account is pretty reliable. Facebook is a sea of shite. Given they are both Meta, Insta will probably join Facebook in slop purgatory at some point.)

Yes, Perry posted it himself after the surgey.

Has anyone stopped to think that there are 3 former #Jayhawks on the 76ers?????? I was watching yesterday and it suddenly occurred to me that this may be a record for us. I know Quentin only played one year, but he was and always will be a #Jayhawk. Your thoughts?
#RCJH GO KU

@RockChalkinTexas-0 I noticed that, too. Cool!
As for another former Jayhawk, Christian Braun's $150 mil contract extension--then him losing a number of games to injury, along with his less-than-productive return, and then the Nuggets' meek surrender in the playoffs--is causing some second guessing. Hopefully, a major strengthening in additional rehab in the offseason can get him going.

@RockChalkinTexas-0 The NBA is such a bad and boring product to me I stopped checking on former Jayhawks. Nearly all of them were OAD's for us like all three on the 76ers, and I just don't care as much.
Goodness, look how much Joel Embiid makes. He's never won a championship. Crazy. Do these owners ever consider they could make their games more affordable by slashing these salaries? The Bulls are terrible and their games are out of reach. I haven't gone in years.

NBA owners can't really lower prices that much because teams have to spend at least 90% of the salary cap per the current CBA. If 76ers ownership slashed Embiid's salary, that money would have to be spent on other players instead.

He hasn’t won a Championship, but he’s won an mvp and just won a series against the hated (by Philly) Celtics. They’ve built a good team around him. Now his body has to hold up. Which I doubt it will, but we’ll see. I watched a good part of the 3-3, next game decides series game against the Celtics. I figured they ought to be playing hard to win that one. I wasn’t disappointed. Great game. And Embiid played well.
