Hopefully Dotson is rested and ready to go Saturday and Self finally abandones the 2 bigs and goes with Moss. He stepped up tonight and should be rewarded. Not to mention that’s the best offensive group we can put out there.
-
@kjayhawks Texas lost in Austin to this OU team by 12, Dotson or not KU should win.

If Dot isn’t ready to go don’t play him yet. At Shaka isn’t worth it
-
@BShark agreed any road win is good
-
they was mentioning this in the game. - -doke did a really good job a few times out on the floor on D - -good foot work
-
Doke 16 and 14 tonight. 3 blocks. Grown man effort.

I would like to see if we could make it through without him at all possible - -yet I just dunno
-
Nite all ! Rock Chalk !
-
Doke is averaging just under 11 rebounds per game since Self jumped him about it. Good job big fella, finished with 14 tonight.
-
Oklahoma had a Kobe stat line, 19-62
-
KU made as many threes as OU on 10 less attempts. WE. DO. NOT. SHOOT. ENOUGH. THREES.

we went 8-19 from 3 tonight good for 42 %

@HighEliteMajor It upsets me but Bill is unlikely to change. You know he is hammering them on force feeding the post.
-
Nova won in ot, chuck had 29 pts for DePaul
-
@BShark who’s been saying we don’t shoot enough 3s the month? Lol ME!!
-
It’s that clanking 18 footer that Dave shot in the 1st half we can do without, and I’d like to see more kick to the line on drives instead of always forcing shots.
I saw the TT/Garrett comparison. TT would rarely dish on the drive. A major failing. I like Garrett driving but think we have a lot more 3 point opportunities that we don’t create.

I’ll take it. Maniac usually goes off against us
-
@BeddieKU23 do they have a weight program there?
-
Not like Baylors
-
top three scorers for Oklahoma 10-43. - pretty good defensive job - -Oklahoma averages 73 points a game on the season we held them to 52

Yeah we fed Dave the ball late in the 2nd half with 4 better options out there
-
KU wins, Duke, Missouri and KSU lose. That’s what I call a good night.
-
They took horrible shots and missed good looks. I’m okay with it

If you squeeze Kentucky in there I would have cracked a bottle of good stuff

DePaul 0-4 in conference. Ouch
-
Really like Doke finally starting to hit the Free Throws. - like I posted earlier tonight he is 11-16 three big 12 games, and I think it shows and you have to figure a TON of pressure off his shoulders
-
@BeddieKU23 how many ot games have they lost? I saw one.
-
dam Coach says Ochai hurt his back but played through it
-
@jayballer73 when?
-
@BShark Dook was still worried about Baylor jumping then in the rankings

not sure, but Self said he hurt it, but played through it. - -coach just said it in his post game conference
-
@jayballer73 dvring it
-
Seems like everyone on this team is already nixed up and it’s not even half way thru January. Sigh
-
-
Wonder why Braun seems tentative? Seems like he’s dialed it back a bit. I like the really aggressive Braun.
-
It’s a recurring pattern every single season
-
Highs & Lows of being a Freshman?
I wonder what starting him would do for his confidence. I remember when he got the nod in the 2nd half against West Virginia his play was full of confidence.
And if this Dotson injury has the potential to keep him out another game or more (very concerned with the lack of clarity on his situation) then inserting Braun into Dave’s spot could be another much needed lift here. We can’t get much less production from Dave then we are currently getting. I don’t know what the coaches are seeing in continuing this. These seems like Classic Stubborn Bill.
-
PER’s after the Oklahoma Game. I’ve also added PER’s for conference play to see the difference in season totals vs how guys are performing in conference.
Through 4 games in Conference
-
Braun not hitting shots lately. Och
ouch! doke doing a lot of things, just need to feed him and watch his passes! Keep boarding. Start moss, no matter what d dot does. Keep giving bench minutes. I don’t think Silvio did so bad in limited minutes, I don’t remember, saying crap!
-
@BeddieKU23 thx!
-
@BeddieKU23 As always thanks for posting this. Is there a Max number for the PER stat?
Kind of surprised Doke’s number didn’t climb a little after last night.
-
@Woodrow 4 to’s?
-
Since his FT% is low that’s probably holding back him climbing. Also low assists, higher then average turnovers & fouls factor in. You will see his conference rating is higher so far.
Average is 15, he’s well well above average. Although the model is meant for the NBA, it gives a snapshot at his incredible value to this team and his individual ability in the paint on both ends
