Kansas v Kentucky Official Gamethread

[randylahey]

Kentucky is taking what they want on offense and making us do what they want with their defense.

Kansas looks like a top of Tier B of contenders.

Correct. As weird as this sounds, ku just isn't very athletic and not very good defensively this year

[Sparko]

Brooks a career high. Nigel Pack a career high. Where’s the pride from our defense this season? It’s embarrassing to have to play zone this much.

It’s to the point self needs to consider a permanent move to it.

Not a big team.

[pdub]

Do I like him over Harris, yea.
But Remy has been shit for January.

Some yaall sound like Yes apologists.

Guys get really excited to play ku. That is part of it. But which player on our team do you think is a good individual defender?

This is exactly who KU was last year with the difference being an uptick in Och’s scoring.

Och 4-12

Needs to have 20 shots at this point.

I still like our chances.

[sdoyel]

Harris. My god.

[CrimsonNBlue]

The real story might be DMac again, though. This was a big personal challenge and really didn’t respond to the challenge. Probably his last season.

[sdoyel]

Grady 4-6 from 3

Rest of team 1-8

[NewtonHawk11]

Good thing we play Tuesday. Need a quick turnaround.

[InfiniteJ]

In all honesty, KU is probably lucky this isn't their 4th loss in a row.

[sdoyel]

Harris put the nail in the coffin with that turnover.

Yep. You are correct sir. Self brought in more athletic more skilled transfers but never really played the because they don't understand his system as well as the returning guys

[NewtonHawk11]

Was that a go big blue in AFH. This team deserves that shit.

[jhawks99]

Yuck

I would rather watch other guys make mistakes than dajuans brand of "mistake free basketball"

Jimmies and Joes over Xs and Os. This is no different. Fuck the system. Adjust. Self had 2 great seasons recently in 2018 and 2020. Both were spread attacks that had guys who could win off the dribble. This team has a guy that can do that, but we’ve turned him into Nadiir Tharpe.

He has been a big disappointment. I know a lot of people are excited about our top 20ish mcdonalds all american center coming in next season. Crazy thing is that is where Dave was ranked too

[Sparko]

Harris does need to sit. We must have better play on both ends. Shut the game off. Refs have been pretty bad. KU looks lost. UK looks paid. Trifecta
