Upon further reflection, i stand by two things i said last night.
– That was IMO the worst coaching night i can recall by Bill Self. This loss is mainly on him for absolutely not adjusting to give his team a chance to win. That shocks me given he’s in the HOF.
– Hunter remains lazy and slow. But he can score down low when he gets position for sure. But we could have still kicked it in to him so he can pass out. he’s got those skills. This again falls on Self for not making it happen.
Dajuan took lots of shots, but if you’re a long time watcher, you can see most WERE NOT his usual shots. he was reaching/trying too hard at more awkward angles than usual because of the crowded lane.
That’s where others needed to step up and drive the lane and dunk on somebody’s head to either make them change defensive strategy or draw a freaking non existent foul. This has to change. we have to get to the line more.
I have had moments of praise for Zeke so far this season, but i’ve also had some concern. I don’t know how to describe the concerns though. What is it? aggressiveness? Effort? Skill? None of the above?
I realize it’s just a loss, but there were things that seemed very broken last night. Hope they can be fixed.
Yeah it was a weird game from Bill. He cares about some games more than others. The fact that he put in Zach had me speechless and told me a lot.
The flu is running through the team, I think that was a factor with Hunt as he looked lethargic even by his standards.
Creighton definitely invited KU to shoot midrange shots over their length, good gameplan.
Zeke hesitates too much I feel.
player, that’s clear. Need him to keep playing well.
