Hawks vs Pokes Game Thread
-
@Bwag could be both. We all see the same things happening every game
-
We want Mitch we want …
-
@globaljaybird
he couldn’t do no worse. At least he would foul someone.
-
@Eric-san lol. Looked Grayson slapped himself
-
Nice quick move by Landen. Excellent
-
Can we start a petition to have Fran banned from doing KU games? His bias is sickening.
-
Svi is cold today
-
Gotta make those Svi
-
@JayHawkFanToo such horse crap. zero excuse for that especially when we are the number 2 ranked team.
-
@HawkInMizery same for everyone
-
Man we’ve got to make some shots.
-
Ugly shooting
-
Damn Frank, kick that out.
-
Svi’s shots always look like they’re going in until they rattle out
-
I LOVE watching LL keep the ball high down low
-
DG fouled
-
Need a big stop here can’t have them getting a momentum shot going into half
-
Only like 5 times
-
@jaybate-1.0 often speculates Self sends them out flat for certain games. Wonder if he does that more consistently against OSU?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 so was Svi on the reb prior -
-
sigh
-
Of course we let them score
-
Svis man
-
OSU a strong O RB team. Saw it there.
-
@BeddieKU23 I know you don’t like it, but poor perimeter D did it again
-
Well enjoy the half time Okie, because the rear end whooping is coming.
-
Of course it was poor captain obvious
-
Uh oh, 24 was jawing at bifm
-
@BeddieKU23 no I’m Mr. Negative. I tell the facts and the hard truth so that means I’m negative. LOL
-

Svis man
Svi with no ass on da block out either - seems like most of these guys don’t wanna get their hands dirty.
-
@DanR is that Carrol?
-
Let’s see what Self draws up at half. OSU clearly has played better.
Mason has to make shots in the 2nd half for this team to win
-
KU is the 500 pound gorilla in college basketball; Zenger needs to get his balls back from TWC and demand that ESPN uses a neutral announcer and not one that obviously dislikes KU.
-
We are not a championship squad until Svi, Vick and Bragg play better.
What happens if Lucas fouls out? We are totally screwed.
Also, anyone have the dark thought that we will lose a tourney game due to poor FT shooting?
-
-
Trying to look up stats on ESPN and looks like they have problems…don’t know that the game started. Well, guess that makes sense how the telecast started.
-
@betterfireE your are correct. Svi is supposedly a great shooter, so he has to make open shots. VIck needs to be more active on the glass and not get continually burned by a back cut. Bragg has to play tougher - he needs something to make him mad so he won’t play soft - only he probably knows what that is. Free throws won’t lose a tournament game, IMO. It will be because we play terrible defense and have a slow start. There are teams better than OSU in the tournament that will take advantage of that.
-
Interesting observation from the Duke-Louisville game. When Pitino called a time out because of mistakes, he would yell at his players as they headed to the huddle. When Capel did the same thing he would tell at the refs, just like rat face does.
-
I think one of the biggest issues with this team is Josh is the only elite athlete that can play elite defense. Frank is very athletic but is short. Next year should be much improved in this regard with Doke, Cunliffe and Garrett if he plays much. If we get Trae Young I think eventually the offense could be at a similar level. Okay halftime is almost over back to focusing on this year.
-
@BShark I see your point but not sure I agree. We have very good athletes that just need to move their feet faster and have a little more pride.
-
Right now I feel our post defense is terrible. Either they’re not getting it or an adjustment has to be made.
-
@DoubleDD do you mean one on one defense in the post?
-
I think we will see this team play well this half but its gonna come down to shots made. Svi, Frank, Jackson all struggling from the floor today. Graham hasn’t really done much either from what little we saw that half.
We are shooting 10% below our season average from the floor and 2-11 from 3. That’s where the game is right now
-
Svi and Graham are average to below average athletes (when comparing to other top program players, not regular people) imo (but very good college players). Vick is a good athlete but needs to learn.
-
Just in general. Getting back doored is a good sign of bad post defense.
-
@BShark its mostly about foot quickness lateraly. At times, we have seen Svi do that well, but many times he is slow to react.
-
Just 4 assists at half, guys have to find ways to get through this Zone crap they are playing.
-
@DoubleDD no, that is poor perimeter D and a result of the wing not seeing ball and man.
-
I feel like the biggest reason for Bragg not playing more is that he frequently gets lost on D.
-
Yea but a good post player is the last line of defense. And right now it’s hit and miss.
