Devonte returning today.....
Jan 10, 2015 03:43 PM #1

CBS Sports reporting that Graham will return today vs TT. They say HCBS announced it. Glad to hear it but hoping it's not too soon.

Ill be happy to see it. But im doubting it. Perhaps a few minutes today at best. But, who am I? I know nothing. :)

Not really worried about if he plays today but its really nice to know that going forward we could have him in the lineup. Mason can finally get a little rest plus we can use a 2 PG lineup and matchup better against teams.

@cragarhawk

I think you are right; he will play enough to get his feet wet and likely less than 10 minutes.

Jan 10, 2015 04:13 PM #5

Is there enough magic in the moonlight....

Jan 10, 2015 04:14 PM #6

glad to hear Devonte is close. I to don't really think we need him as badly today would rather use him less today and tuesady and then be ready I believe a week from today against Iowa State

@brooksmd What ever it means, we know Devonte' isnt getting a medical rouge smoking jacket. He may play today but I doubt he gets more than a few minutes to spell Mason.

@jayballer54 Speaking of Iowa State, Im watching the replay of Iowa state/ Okie state game. At the half, Ive seen nothing of both teams that screams impending losses against either team. Im thinking KU should hide Ellis on defense if they can, use Traylor and Oubre and Greene to defend against Georges. Definitely shoot more 3's, So far in the game, The Mayor hasnt used his footer once yet against Okie state.

@Lulufulu

I watched the game and neither team impressed; ISU was lucky to win that game.

Jan 10, 2015 04:42 PM #10

@JayHawkFanToo Agreed, funny thing is though, when either of those teams play KU, its always a dog fight, competition always ramps up for KU. Wonder why that is? ;) I just hope our boys are ready for it. ISU is up next after TxTech if Im not mistaken.

@Crimsonorblue22 Oh yah, then ISU

Jan 10, 2015 05:54 PM #13

@cragarhawk -- good to see you have made your way to kubuckets.com. And that you've got your avatar straightened out now.

I second the idea to not rush Devonte back. I think we rushed Embiid back last season from his knee injury, as I mentioned at the time. I firmly believe that rushing him back on the knee led to Embiid compensating for his knee in his running, jumping, and landing, which led to stress fracture in his back. I'd be patient with Devonte. Self might really be targeting ISU as the game where Devonte may really be needed. That makes sense.

@cragarhawk Kool avatar-I had slotted Mickey Thompson Astros on my 67 GTO, then replaced them with classic 5 spoke Cragars. Sweet, & I mean sweet vintage muscle car, Real walnut dash & console, factory Hurst split shift turbo hydramatic tranny. Motorola AM/FM 8 track stereo, & Motorola reverb w/JBL speakers. Was the cat's a$$$ back in the day...have seen them auction at Mecum for about 20K, but that's not really a lot of $$ for a toy anymore. Even my 50th anniversary Polaris Scrambler is valued about 8K now. Will download a pic & post it in my the avatar when I get time.

@HighEliteMajor actually suggested this avatar a few years ago I believe . And I was obliged to accept. Took me a few days here to figure out how to get it on here. I'm not the most technologically advanced individual. :)

@cragarhawk posters here are very helpful!! Just ask nicely!

Jan 10, 2015 07:32 PM #17

@Crimsonorblue22 I'm nice. BTW, look for Svi to grab bunches of minutes today, since his folks are here from Siberia.

Jan 10, 2015 07:32 PM #18

@HighEliteMajor That's what I had been hoping for a while back.....that Devonte would be ready against ISU.......looks like it could happen.

Jan 10, 2015 07:37 PM #19

@Hawk8086 Can't WAIT for Devonte to get back.

Jan 10, 2015 07:39 PM #20

We have much better movement once the two of them can play together. Now, we just want him to give Frank a breather

Jan 10, 2015 07:40 PM #21

Chat here or at Jesses'?

Jan 10, 2015 07:43 PM #22

@globaljaybird Friend of mine restored a 67 about 4 years ago. Sold it for about $33K if I remember right. Only kept it for 4-5 months after he finished it. I've got before and after pics around here somewhere.

Jan 10, 2015 07:45 PM #23

@Kip_McSmithers I was wondering the same thing. If here we should nominate @jaybate-1.0 to tell Jesse.

Jan 10, 2015 07:50 PM #24

I'll give Jesse a try

Jan 10, 2015 07:52 PM #25

OffTopic: Geez, UNC is whiiping Louisville on the boards first half. Rick flat can't beat Roy, no matter what school they're at. ( 150-95)

Jan 10, 2015 07:54 PM #26

@KUSTEVE HA! Well it is tied right now. So it could be a close game at the end.

Jan 10, 2015 07:56 PM #27

@Lulufulu i was surprised the tarholes would whip harell and company so bad on the boards...24-14 boards, with 11-3 off rebound advantage...

Jan 10, 2015 08:27 PM #28

@KUSTEVE

Siberia??? Did they get on Putin's bad side??? :):):)

Jan 10, 2015 11:06 PM #29

@JayHawkFanToo I took a shot...lol.

Jan 11, 2015 04:02 AM #30

@cragarhawk

Still the best wheel design ever.

Jan 12, 2015 12:54 AM #31

@KUSTEVE Cryin shame I can only give you one up for that !!
