Thanks for the memory. I miss the more thorough analysis of posts of that period of Buckets. You were a big part of that.

Strong PoV. Sound analysis to support. And sure, they sometimes got some pointed (sometimes too personal) responses. But a lot gave a counter PoV that was helpful to better analyze the game and team we all love.

Also, know that it was a huge investment of time and thought on several posters part most notbly yourself and a few others. So thank!

I enjoy the vigorous and sometimes passionate discussion.

Don’t like when posters make it personal against other posters claiming a moral high ground per se.

It’s a fine line breaking down a players game or the coaches strategy and not being or taking it “personal “. I’m not sure there is an easy answer there after all this is a fan board not a cheerleading site. I take it as a given that all are fans with a point of view and an approach that they prefer - accepting the few that may or may not be ongoing or intermittent trolls.

@jayhawkcsg nice post

KJ younger? Red shirt SO

We started 5 kids who, before this year, had never played a game for KU. With Vick’s departure, we had 2-3 players that had played before here.

I don’t see Grimes leaving. Not because it wouldn’t be in his interest, but I see a kid who has been willing to try and bring his game along slowly. No sense of urgency to grow/perform this year that would indicate a mindset that says I need to be in the NBA now.

Dok? Who knows. Not a good NBA prospect and injuries are not going to help his case. Go overseas? Maybe…

DLaw- will try and should try NBA waters. My guess he’s 25/75 chance to get a sniff and could perhaps slightly increase those chances with another year but not sure that’s in his mind. May be time to go where his skill and athleticism will take him. Can only work on improvements around the edges. If he leaves, KJ is where? That’s an unknown, but sitting out again somewhere? Can’t be appealing.

Everyone else should be back for sure unless Self runs a guy like Charlie off with some real talk.

Agreed. No real upsets though some 16’s gave half a game to ACC #1’s.

This season is kind of like Apollo 13 if we don’t get murdered by the NCAA.

There is that.

And '18-'19 is officially over. Fair thee well.

+12 for second half but lost by 14…we won the 2nd half decisively!

Down 15
