Setting up the chat early because I won't be here when it starts. It's too early for me (4:30 am)

@bskeet Watching Diallo and Bragg in the Mickey D AA game replay on ESPNU before tipoff with Brazil. What a treat to watch this beforehand. Diallo looks beastly....

Go KUSA! :raised_hand:

New jerseys

I need coffee

Not a good start.

Lots of nothing going on so far

That's more like it.

@KansasComet Better now.

Few minutes late but turned it on in time to see our first point.

So Cindy Self stayed up all night sewing those jerseys?

Can't believe I got up a whole half hour earlier than I usually do to watch this

Not sure why we didn't guard that shot. They are allowing very physical play.

i guess the concept of a moving screen doesn't exist in international play....geez...

Pickup games on the playground have more rules than this crap

😴😴😴I'm here.

@DanR Bill liked the way the officials called the last game. Let them play. No blood, no foul.

Down 1 at first qtr

Gonna get ugly

What the hell, those two guys burried Moore while on the ground

dirty ass play by brazil....

Ellis off

Looked like Moore took a few swings

Good morning fellow Jayhawk Fans,,,:)

Looks like the check cleared...the refs are letting Brazil get away with whatever they want.

I guess if the last crew was NBA caliber than this one is Middle School.

Gets his first basket when Bra goes to zone

I love soccer but the bitching to the refs after everything by Brasil is futbol like and annoying.

Hope Brazil stays in the zone. We're handling it pretty well

I don't care how they call it as long as they call it the same for both sides. Brazil with hard fouls and not being called and out side getting a lot of ticky tack fouls.

I think they do because of foul trouble.

Guess Brazils coach noticed the same thing back to m2m

And I was wrong !

Selden is playing super solid

Feeling it

the wayne show...nice sequence for jamari before that- he avoided the 8 times he was fouled, and made the shot...

Selden looks NBA

i thot they only called fouls if you were knocked to the ground..my bad...

Playground rules, no blood, no foul

PERRY !!!!!!

I am glad to the USA on the front of the shirt. I will guess they were told the uniform was non-compliant and the name of the country needs to go in front.

@JayHawkFanToo

FISU is ran by Nike....

Just kidding.

But seriously, I think they are...

@JayHawkFanToo They didn't call a foul on the Brazil kid who threw a punch at Nic moore??? That's assault in my books. and the moving screen that big lumbering white kid threw at vick where he hooked vick's arm and walked him 5 feet out of the play? and the regular assaults we get on every break...this is thug ball, pure and simple...

@KUSTEVE I think they called a double foul. Not sure which Brasilian picked it up though.

@Kip_McSmithers i'm watching w/o sound. that's even worse - get punched, and get a foul called against you....i should say no tech foul called for punching...

Pork butt in the smoker, coffee ready and breakfast is about ready too. KU up at half. Good morning so far.

@KUSTEVE No sound? Not a fan of the D team announcers?

@Kip_McSmithers watching in bedroom- don't want to wake up my guest...he,he

If Duke was the representative Bilas and Vitale would be calling this game. And Brasil would have 4 guys fouled out already....

THE BEAST!!!!! SELDEN!!!!

Jamari reverts to foul mode

Guy fouled Selden and called it himself. Yet refs let it go

Traylor, 2 fouls, one a bad call and one stupid at 3/4 court.

@Bwag mari is playing better than last game, though...imo.

@KUSTEVE he's had some good energy when he came back off the bench I thought.

Should have been a basket by Perry plus one instead the ball is inbounded from the side

On the floor? Ellis put it up as soon as contact came!

nice finish by hunter......

Plenty of free throws coming up...

Just as I was about to praise Vick's energy, he fell asleep in the lane and let his man break out for a set 3, late to the game.

Michelson continues to bring great activity.

mick is bringing a big spark with his energy, isn't he?

@KUSTEVE

Yes, he is...

Michelson tearing it up, lots of good, small and big plays

Bailed out

Wayne's World...excellent, excellent...:)

Bobby Nightengale KUsports.com staff

Brazil shooting 14 of 48 today. 5 of 21 from deep.

Euro ball, meet KU defense.....

@KUSTEVE and tight rims apparently.

Game blacked out outside of us. Scores?

Meaning what is the score?

This announcer doesn't know Traylor drives it from top of the key.

@ParisHawk ku 59....thugs 44?

Good thing no one hurt there

@KUSTEVE thanks!

@Bwag

Announcing sucks. Earlier named some of the past bigs at KU and did not motion Withey

@ParisHawk quite the display of whistle swallowing...moore was punched by a brazil player...the only way they call a foul is if you hit the ground....

59-44 end of 3rd.

VICK!!!!!!!!

64-48 8:11 left in 4th

@KUSTEVE KU 64 BRA 48...

Traylor does a good acting job. That's what you got to do

@Kip_McSmithers THEY WON'T CALL IT UNLESS YOU HIT THE FLOOR, SO I DON'T BLAME MARI FOR FLOPPING...

Traylor bonehead play leads to run out. 64-52

6:54 left

@Kip_McSmithers i must be on a delay compared to you....i am excited about this team standing up to these bullies - we have more than held our own- our top 3 are just so solid ( Frank, Wayne, Perry)....

Pressure is killing us.

Moore had a terrible final 4 seconds

Rough call on Moore.. Game tightening. Need to be strong with ball here on out

Perry limped off hope he's ok

WAYNE'S WORLD.....

Did we weather their push?

Selden with 23 points

73-58 4:45

vick is going to be so good...what a nice little shot he just made.....

KU 73 BRA 58....

Mason must be tired. Airball on the 3.

Michelson!

Wonder what Lucas did to get in the doghouse

@DanR I was wondering the same thing.

Vick's activity seems good. Agree he'll be an exciting player to watch develop.

10 points at 1 1/2 min mark

Brazil coach looks like the chubby kid from the goonies movie

Not sure where foul was there, but we need to close this out

7 point game at 57 sec mark

@DanR he had several passes into the post he mishandled in the 1st quarter. i don't think we've seen him since. mick has completely outplayed him today.

Why not pressure the inbounds to get the clock running rather than let them start at mid court?

@brooksmd not sure why there isn't more pressure with 8 second half court clock

Big shot by Vick

Vick huge 3.

VICK WITH THE KILLER 3 ...HUBBA, HUBBA.....

Bragg. Bothered by mask or having to catch up to speed of game?

ROCK CHALK USA!!!

Ellis didn't play much in the 4th quarter.. Kinda odd.

Sheldon 42 points in first 2 games? Nice

Remember USA women tonite for World Cup championship vs Japan.

@bskeet wasn't real effective and was reported limped off court?

@Bwag thanks. Didn't hear about the limp. Wondered if they were downplaying him so the Serbians don't have a good scouting report on him

@brooksmd he's getting some quality mins!

@DanR Chunk!

@Bwag I think his shooting is the mask, lost on defense. He'll get it.

@bskeet it's out there now on LJW site that he tweeed his ankle. No structural damage.

PSA: The Jayhawks have an off day on Monday, but will return to the court to face Chile at 2:30 p.m. (12:30 a.m. CDT) Tuesday at Muan Indoor Gymnasium. The game will not be televised. (from KUSports.com)

@bskeet Both locatetv.com and my Tivo schedule listing for espnu on Tues July 7 show USA playing Serbia at 8:00 pm (pdt). This is also what is shown on a schedule I took off of one of the threads here. What gives?

I've seen the same strangeness. I could not find the Chile game. Yet TIVO has scheduled KU v. Brazil at the same time as the Chile game.

I suspect that KUSports.com is right, but we'll all need to watch for corrections/updates.

My guess is that ESPN3 will have it (live streaming on the web), but not ESPNU.

@bskeet The Chile game is not on TV or ESPN3. My guess is because it's the one US game in pool play that's not at Dongkang.

I hope they show it somewhere!

@Texas-Hawk-10 Thanks.. I did not know that!
