KU Elite 8 game chat
-
Not impressed with Bagley he was largely neutralized by Svi who is much smaller and Doke punked him a few times and his outside shot was AWOL. He can dominate smaller college players but he will have problems with the bigger NBA bodies.
-
@JayHawkFanToo Yeah, Svi was a man tonight, I was impressed.
-
Loved the way the team shut down Allen 1 of 12 and 1of 9 from 3 if you discount the " who gives a shit" three as the clock ran out in OT. Also his D was pathetic. I will go to bed tonight LMAO. Fantastic game, great win over a damn good team
-
@Buster-1926 The media always has excuses for Duke.
-
Just had a thought. We gained 5 games on UK all time wins with two more possible. Also pulled away from UNC by the same amount.
-
KU will forever be known as the team that ended Gracie “Tripper” Allen’s college career. BOOYAH!
-
Gracie missed the shot that could have won the game in regulation and 2 3s in a row at the end of OT. Couldn’t happen to a trippier guy.
-
12-1 vs the sweet sixteen teams this season so far…
-
@JayHawkFanToo he could have passed it to a big, but no, hero ball
-
@Kcmatt7 coach self said that about svi too!
-
Bonus point… KU gained 5 games against UK in the all time wins and now trails by only 15 and could be 13!
3 more seasons like this and KU overtakes UK. Wouldn’t it be nice if Coach Self leads KU to the lead in all time wins during UK’s golden years under Calipari?
-
Just think, @cragarhawk is there!
-
Svi had his best game as a Jayhawk tonight IMO. The job he did guarding Bagley tonight was incredible. And he had a double-double as well the tying 3 to send the game to OT. Malik was great tonight, but Svi was the MVP of this game.
-
I forgot about that…when Tripper’s shot at the end of regulation rolled round to the back of the iron…I thought it was in and we had lost. Game of inches…and we were due to get a break!
-
…and now he has the KU record for most 3 points in one season.
-
I’ve never been so proud of a team. 7 man rotation. Bill bringing Silvio on at semester will go down as the greatest recruiting move he ever made. Hope Ayton and Sexton enjoy the cash they took.
-
4 Duke players played a combined 176 minutes and 198 for all 5 starters, 4 KU players played 172 minutes, 191 for all 5 starters. Doke and Carter limited to 22 and 19 minutes due to foul trouble. Our bench outscored Duke 8-6. Iron man basketball for both teams.
-
When the refs took Allen to the woodshed for his tripping, his defense went to hell. I saw him get his ass handed to him four different times tonight and I may have missed some more. Was so glad to see KU put an end to his BS atitude.
-
Benton Smith said we eeked out a victtory today. Call it what you want,the guys worked their butts off and deserved the win!
-
On a good note, Chuckie Cheese can now eat humble pie.
-
When Gracie’s ball was rollin around the rim and then not go in, that seemed like all kinds of special karma moving it gently aside.
And way to step up in OT without Doke, great team effort.
Now for a little Villainova payback perhaps.
Oh and gotta say this again, it feels lucky for me
- for all those who bet against KU again, enjoy that gaping hole in your bracket, AGAIN!
-
@Buster-1926 Dok said in the locker room that he didn’t feel right after he fell in the first half.
-
@stoptheflop doke is so young, mentally too! He did do a good job being tough w/his knee rehab. I can’t imagine him in the nba.
-
from ESPN - Allen finished with 13 points in his finale on 3-of-13 shooting to close his four seasons three points short of joining the 12-member, career 2,000-point club at Duke. His attempt at immortality, a jumper from just outside the lane with the score tied at 72, bounced off the glass and touched every inch of the rim before falling away with less than 1 second to play. Karma’s a bitch.
-
@StLJhawk I swear rat face said he had 2000 in post game. Anybody else hear?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Remember, he gets 1 bonus point from K for every opposing player he tripped.
-
With the events in overtime as Malik Newman was able to score every point for KU in out scoring Dook 13-9. The NCAA has officially changed the name of Overtime to Malik Newman time.
-
@kjayhawks FACTS
-
Vic looking really happy in the post game net ceremony, dancing and laughing… that’s so good to see after the stuff earlier in the year. This team is going to play loose and have fun next game.
