Have we fallen into a mesmerized state that makes us accept as inevitable that which is inferior or detrimental, as though having lost the will or the vision to demand that which is good?

In just 19 minutes of play off the bench, rookie Christian Braun had a big time impact on both ends of the floor in Game 3 of the NBA Finals

What’s the best part about Denver’s low-key assassin from Kansas? How has the Joker-Blue Arrow two man game cemented it’s greatness?

Re: Jayhawks in the NBA
That's an Incomplete list. In my opinion.
Coaches, GMs/"Front Office" People, Owners. I feel they should count and be a part of that list too.

Re: Jayhawks in the NBA
I think with the improvement of Braun and Ochai plus the addition of Dick and possibly Jalen Wilson a NBA team of just Jayhawks, say if they started playing 2 years from now, would compete for a playoff spot ( since 10 teams make it ).
As of right now, they wouldn't be the worst team in the NBA if you weigh starters stronger than the bench ( which you should ).
Pistons PER hypothetical starting lineup - 78:
Cade Cunningham 14
Jaden Ivey 12.1
Bojan Bogdanovic 17.4
Marvin Bagley 17.2
Jalen Duren 17.3
Bench - 45.2:
Isiah Stewart 13.1
Alec Burks 16.5
James Wiseman 15.6
Jayhawks PER hypothetical starting lineup - 87.4:
Devonte Graham 12.5
Kelly Oubre 14.8
Svi Mykhailiuk 14
Andrew Wiggins 14.7
Joel Embiid 31.4
Bench - 30.3:
Christian Braun 10.3
Marcus Morris 10.5
Ochai Agbaji 9.5
( Grimes only gives a 2 point boost to this so I'm keeping Ochai, who finished the season strong, over him )

Re: Jayhawks in the NBA
In fact, that KU starting lineup bests the Pacers ( 79.5 ), who finished 11th in the East.
Tyrese Haliburton 23.6
Andrew Nembhard 10
Buddy Hield 15.4
Aaron Nesmith 10.5
Myles Turner 20
And just barely falls behind Toronto ( 90.5 ), who earned the last playoff spot.
Fred VanVleet 17
OG Anunoby 14.6
Scottie Barnes 15.5
Pascal Siakam 20.3
Jakob Poetl 23.1
Both Toronto and Indiana's depth chart blows KU's out of the water however.

I'm guessing he has a very, very bad headache right now
Re: Jayhawks in the NBA
He should probably start drinking then.

Re: Jayhawks in the NBA
Same thing, only different:
Braun became only the 5th player to win an NBA and NCAA title in consecutive seasons. The exclusive list includes Bill Russell, Magic Johnson, Henry Bibby & Billy Thompson!
Christian Braun's past 14 months have been pretty special.
On April 4, 2022, he posted a double-double and won the NCAA men's basketball national championship with the Kansas Jayhawks in the largest comeback win in title history. Later that summer, the Denver Nuggets drafted Braun with the No. 21 pick. And almost a year later, the rookie guard played a critical role in the Nuggets' Game 3 win over the Miami Heat before Denver sealed its first-ever NBA championship Monday night.
Braun averaged just 5.8 points, 2.0 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 1.0 steals in 81.6 total minutes during the Finals, but the title win secured his spot in an exclusive group of NBA players. Braun became only the fifth player in league history to win an NBA and NCAA championship in consecutive seasons, and he's the first to do it since 1987.
