Gradey is averaging 21 points a game this season so far, after 8.5 last year. He’s really stepped it up in year 2.

@Fightsongwriter Make that 200!

“I knew that was back-to-back games where I didn’t make clutch free throws,” said Lucas. “In the tournament, we might lose a game because of that. I figured I had to stay in the gym until I hit a couple hundred. It was more than 200. It was a lot. I was in there until I felt confident moving forward.”

That’s senior leadership.

@Jethro Thank you! I had not been able to find the complete game online (but haven’t looked in a while). I’ve watched all the clips and highlights I could find and the last 3 minutes in full, but not the whole game.

The night of the championship game I was on a train to the Arctic, with no internet or cell service. Hit a pocket of service around midnight and found out I had missed the biggest comeback in the history of the NCAA championship. Woke up half the train.

I scheduled this trip back when we weren’t playing well, and thought the chances of us playing that night were remote. I was punished for my lack of faith. Still pretty happy with the outcome.

@wissox Wildlife research on the tundra and the edge of the boreal forest. I traveled up with 4 grad students who are not basketball fans (they have nothing against it, just don’t follow). They gave me grief when I originally said I didn’t want to travel on that day, just in case. For future trips I’m going to have to remember who is in charge, and sets our priorities!

Bill Self just tied Phog Allen for most wins. Wow.

“Let’s try to spin things positively for Duke”. ESPN doesn’t even try to hide it.

All schools are still open in Winnipeg, where I live, despite being -40. People are prepared.

I’m in Tucson right now, though. Pretty happy about that.

@wissoxfan83 I disagree. I think @drgnslayr is the most interesting man in the world.

At KU, his majors were sailing, cigar appreciation, and the tango.

His two cents are worth thirty-seven dollars and change.

You can see his charisma from space.

He’s a lover, not a fighter; but he’s a fighter too, so don’t get any ideas.

34 minutes is a lot for Dok. Tests his stamina, good reason to sit the other bigs that could have played.

2 fouls is not very many for Dok. Encouraging.

11 rebounds is a lot for Dok. Even more encouraging.

@dylans Bit of both

Adams 9-10 FT tonight. Wouldn’t have predicted that a couple of years ago.

I’m starting to like Rylen Griffen. That hug he gave KJ with his head snuggled onto his shoulder was adorable.

@wissox said in Lets go 3-0 on the new season:

I wish Flory could make FTs

Glad Mayo can.

@wissox Just realized I’m watching K-State-Baylor women.

Sure is nice when shots are falling.

@wissox He has a lot of energy, too. Bouncy.

@DanR said in Tonight's game:

@approxinfinity He’s international, so no NIL. Might as well move on and make some $$

He played 3 years of high school in Indiana, so he’s probably a permanent resident by now. Reportedly, his NIL deal is worth $530K this year.

@nuleafjhawk said in Tonight's game:

@dylans I quit drinking a long time ago, but watching these guys feels just like a hangover. A bad hangover.

I just started this season.
