Self's Short Stack vs Shaka's Invincible Horns Game Thread
-
Dotson needs to get more aggressive with his shooting. Self needs to give Dotson the Brandon Rush treatment and punish him when he passes on a good shot.
Dotson is our best shooter, but he’s too passive still on offense. Every time he drives, he’s looking to pass instead of shoot.

Surely we cant play that damn bad for two halfs in a row. I feel like we should be down 15.
The first ISU game says they can.
-
@Hawk8086 they hit 5 3s and only average 8 a game. Defense is fine if we just rebound and run offense.

decent offensive possession there finally
An open jump shot…how do we do more of that?

Are there more players redshirting that we can try?
Put in the bearded waterboy I think his name is Mank Frason.

@Texas-Hawk-10 agreed. Energy. Kept a couple balls and plays alive
-
@Kcmatt7 Big 1G of a few years back…more bad offense than great defense
-
Hey, we pulled even on rebounds, 16 each. That’s cool. Garret has 5.
-
@kjayhawks Absolutely…no problem with the defense

I’m not convinced yet. Signs of brilliance at times…others, seems other team does what they want and too much running at open shooters from so far away not really affecting shots. Tx may just be that bad

BREAKING NEWS: KU HAS SIGNED A MID SEASON TRANSFER NAMED MRANK FASON. ELIGIBLE TO PLAY IMMEDIATELY
-
Agbaji is our leading scorer with 9, which is 3 times more than the next highest (Grimes and Dotson have 3 each). That’s less cool.
-
Vegas has us a 1.5 point favorite so there’s that!
-
ESPN is desperate for eye balls. Used to not even cover UFC…

Have a question ? - In our conference games only , what would you all say was the percentage of the time we have lead in games ? -It can’t be good - -we have played from behind a large majority if I remember right ?
This team just has no flow - -so choppy - -so many inconsistent players. - -Sad to say really other then Dedric which has been pretty consistent , yet now we are seeing what is going to be a trend for the rest of the season - where he is double anytime he touches the ball , there is no one that if I were opposing teams would be scared of anyone - - excluding Obaji - he is going to be a very solid player for us for sure. - -Vick is sad - soooo inconsistent. - -Grimes is just sad talent - -but where is the mentality- -the drive - -the heart?
Don’t be surprised guys come tourney time - -It wouldn’t totally shock me if we got beat in the 1st game - -not 1st weekend - -I’m talking the 1st game. - - Pretty disappointing considering with all the media talk - - the way we were feeling and thinking at the 1st of the season - - now look where we are. - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
@jayballer73 We need to reset our expectations. That’s how we enjoy the rest of the season.
-
@tundrahok Awhile ago I mentioned any win is a good win for this team. That’s where I am at. I don’t expect anything out of the NCAAT. Extending the league streak would be a pleasant shock.
-
@tundrahok Hell yes, I’m in “watch the young guys develop” mode

DanR said:

Me too. I wish we’d play Dave more.

Must be what it feels like to be the fan of another team… I don’t really like it.
-
We’re down 3 at the half and DLaw is 1-5 with 2 points? Time for DLaw to work. Need to foul out afro boy again.
-
@Kcmatt7 I don’t either, but I watch all the KU football games too
-
Vick and Grimes like don’t realize you have to play defense even when your man doesn’t have the ball
-
I guess Vick was worse than Grimes in the first half, by coach’s standards
-
Did someone forget to tell Garrett about shooting 3s?
-
Garrett has such a flat shot it hurts
-
Osetkowski is a bad match up for Garrett on defense. Need to get Lightfoot in for Grimes and put Garrett on Roach.
-
Grimes. Behind the back bounce pass?
-
Was that a behind the back pass by Grimes 3 feet away on the baseline?
-
Bilas can kiss my ass…

Wow has he been bad? I’m surprised.

Wellp. Bad start to the half.
-
Shaka’s amped up a little early IMO

Showing more energy than anyone on KU

Does Bill just teach a flat shot? Everyone but Vick and Dotson have one.
-
So you want Grimes out, Mitch in?
-
@Woodrow Obviously we’re keeping the powder dry
-
So much for a good start to the 2nd half. Disappointing after we cut the lead to 3 at half.
-

Grimes out, Dave in.
-
@Kcmatt7 Ochai has the ultimate arc
-
Everyone decided to sit this one out except Ochai
-
Put in the lineup that plays the hardest from here on out. This team needs coached like they’re 6th graders
-
@jayballer73 hard to argue with any of that

I’m down. We’ve gazed into the maw of the 4 guard abyss. Not good.

@approxinfinity Sounds like a Tucky infomercial. “You know in the Tucky game”…blah, blah, blah. We have no clue who is in the game because they’re too busy talking about Saturday’s game.
-
@KUSTEVE gotcha gotcha
-
approxinfinity said:

Yes, Mitch on Osetkowski and Garrett on Roach. Osetkowski is too physical for Garrett.

He doesn’t shoot or play defense anyway. Might as well have someone who can get rebounds and hustle. And he has upside.

Great point. Also, proving my point lol. These guys with horrible shots, there is such an easy solution. And you have a court no more than 100 feet from your dorm room.
