Let's stop being dumb!

Good start. LOL

We're going to have to be tougher and crisper with the ball

Starting exactly how I thought it would.

Bwag said:

I know...I'm a genius

A couple buckets, thats alright. Let's get some stops.

Grimes ain’t ready for this

Oh boy

Step to the ball

Shut em up with a free-throw LOL

Guard them

Nice free throw

And...Captain Obvious says: Make our FT's

Defense is a luxury we can't not afford.

How about we guard their best offensive player

Nice guarding by Vick. He just stood there

BeddieKU23 said:

Nice guarding by Vick. He just stood there

No, he took a half-hearted stroll in his general direction

Dotson is my Hawk to Rock. Steady us Devon!

Grimes lost. 21 games of it

Was Wiggins half court bankshot against the Kitties?

Bank is open

Agbaji seriously stop trying to take his wallet

Agbaji, lets goooooo

Wow we are make them look great offensively

Vick should just find the bus

Grimes and Vick combo on D is not gonna be good tonight.

Grimes

Grimes Hasn't thrown a decent pass yet.

Can't dribble or catch either

If we weren't pissing away possessions leading to run outs we'd be alright.

Like I said Grimes. Miss Garrett.

Grimes is a defenders dream

THE BANK'S OPEN!!!!

@approxinfinity

Gonna be one of them nights again. Just a poor team away from home

Grimes starts to drive then pauses, let the defender get back in position.

Protect the damn ball

@approxinfinity true

This start is especially bad since KState doesn't offense very well.

Its already over folks, KSU is playing hard, we are not. It's that damn simple, play hard or go home!

We're going to miss Garrett in this one more than I expected

This team isn’t good enough to not value the ball

@kjayhawks geez

kjayhawks said:

Lets see what we look like after this timeout.

@kjayhawks pump them up coach

I think that's 3 times already for the F-KU chant. Keep it classy Silo Tech!

@Texas-Hawk-10 low class is still classy, just ask a KSU'er

@Bwag would be a NSFW timeout forsure lol. You can not come out like that on road, just can't.

Moore and MItch? Ok, wtf.

Oh my gosh

Good D!

Charlie's a passer, not a dribbler.

Yay Mitch! An actual basket

Mitch looking beefy? Nice board.

His one skill?

Well grimes and Vick were bad. Too few good options sometimes.

dafuqq was that ref?

Sucked

approxinfinity said:

Mitch looking beefy? Nice board.

and put back

Pack it up. Times up

Pathetic call

What was that?!?

and the refs start to make their presence known

OK Charlie! In the flow. Steal and pass! Works!

Nice rebound Lawson, NOT

Devon so good.

lets go here

I think mitch has all our rebounds

Literally zero effort to rebound

This team is really missing Marcus

.... 3 minutes later... Charlie and Mitch still deserving to be in there... dig it!

DanR said:

I think mitch has all our rebounds

Both of them.

BeddieKU23 said:

Literally zero effort to rebound

Not sure if the shot was so bad it caught us flat footed, but blocking out would have been helpful

I don't think Weber prerpped against a zone

steady the ship...and lets take it to them from here

Dotson is the hero we need!

Alright

HA HA

Playing harder now, if u gave up, go home

I like this

Game of runs

KStates 3 ball against zone not quite as good as against m2m...it is one of their weaknesses.

Back in the game.

Mitch getting us second chances

When @drgnslayr made a comment about how this moment when Devonte talked to the team is the moment that Devon starts leading this team, it felt very right. I think he's onto something. This is Devon's world, and the Kitties are just living in it.

Charlie and Mitch helped settle things down, who'd have thunk it.

Solid minutes for mitch

NBA guys don't know crap about us. All about if they can play in nba

zone was a good call l, if we can rebound outta it.

Chauncey play in AFH?

You'd think Billups could at least talk about playing in the big 12.

@Texas-Hawk-10 that's half as many as I've said here in my couch

Yeah ,he played for Colorado when they were B12 , @Crimsonorblue22

Anything is better then Fran talking about liberace's plan to beat KU for 40 minutes

@approxinfinity were they even ever big 8?

That’s awful. Can’t get a shot out of a timeout and give up and and 1.

Grimes is the worst defender I've seen

BeddieKU23 said:

Grimes is the worst defender I've seen

Brannen Greene says hi.

Grimes is terrible

what...that should either be on the floor or not anything

@Texas-Hawk-10

Still better then grimes

Bwag said:

ahh yep you're right

BeddieKU23 said:

Still better then grimes

No he wasn't.

At least he could shoot

Sophomore Grimes will be better than sophomore Brannen, I hope. Much much less weed.

HELL YES MITCH!

approxinfinity said:

Bwag said:

ahh yep you're right

I think we rented out Allen Field House West to them for their other games...

Lightfoot!

Dedric that was garbage man.

Back to Curse of Oak Island........
Crap - the State of the Union would be better than this garbage

Deric was hacked. Make up call on the other end

Ochai playing young

Mitch has 6 points and 5 boards in 7 minutes.

Agbaji looking like a freshman who just joined the team.

BeddieKU23 said:

Grimes is the worst defender I've seen

Here's you're original comment I responded to. You said nothing about offense. So again, Brannen Greene was worse defender than Grimes.

Self is going to have to go back to Vick

Chuck

turnovers

nonononono yess CHuck

Whatever we think this offense is it dont work. Spend the entire possession going side to side 30 feet from the hoop

If we keep it single digits before half we lucky

Oh my

Lose to every other team in the conference - BUT NOT TO K-FRICKING-STATE!

CHUCK

That was sick agbaji

If Charlie Moore is the Kittie Killer I'm ok with that :joy:

Quick hands chuck

nice little dish there too. WHO IS THIS CHARLIE GUY?

What a great play by Moore to agbaji

I believe he goes by Charles now.

Better than grimes or vick

Moore playing... well?

approxinfinity said:

If Charlie Moore is the Kittie Killer I'm ok with that :joy:

Bottle him up for 2 games a yr

Prince Charles

Oh you mean Charles Moore..

@DanR can't do it

lolol

No Vick for the last 7 minutes. Glad self saw him check out

The artist formerly known as Chuck.

Moore needs to run the show tonight and keep Dotson off the ball as much as possible to limit turnovers and use Dotson's speed and quickness to get him going downhill.

Charles Moorentgomery Floorburns

If chuck gets those steals......

KirkIsMyHinrich said:

Charles Moorentgomery Floorburns

Haha

Cha Cha GaMoore

Ochai!! Hopefully that gets some juice going, continuing solidness from Moore and Lightfoot.

No, pretty sure it took until late sophomore year or junior year to record his first steal.

I've seen more charge calls than I've seen in a week in the NBA (ONE OF THE ANNOUNCERS)

these dummass NBA guys don't know which team is which

@nuleafjhawk lol

He forgot to say ON KU

Crossover dumb

nuleafjhawk said:

You can go a week of college ball as well and not see this many as well.

Don't think Chuck likes katz

Stop dribbling, Grimes.

Refs are blind

Was there a foul there? Wasnt he 3 feet away?

Relax Q

Is that 4 turnovers for Grimes?

Wade playing like a junior who just joined the team.

Vick on the bench for a long while

@Woodrow at least 4

approxinfinity said:

Maybe not, but Agbaji put himself in a bad spot by reaching though.

There is NO WAY the refs let KU win this game. They all want the streak to end. To our "rival" . Make me puke.

What?

See what I mean? Travel my butt

NO WAY Dedric left his feet

kjayhawks said:

Vick on the bench for a long while

These guys are getting it done. :thumbsup:

@Woodrow 3 turnovers for Grimes

Ohhhh KJ... Was that 3.5 steps, a held ball and a charge?

Lol that ref on that side literally cant see

travel?

He wasn't set. Good god.

These refs are trash both ways

This game should be sponsored by Capital One with all these charges.

Feed the man

kjayhawks said:

Vick on the bench for a long while

He can stay there

@approxinfinity LOL

See charlie, when you look AT the basket, you have a chance.

I would have gotten at least 1 technical already

Woah Charlie.

Awful foul though.

Dude, that Charlie Moore shot was... actually.. beautiful form. high point elevation. wow.

Moore playing very good so far.

What is Mitch doing?!

Wow are u serious

Mitch!

Lol

Gotta get Dedric going.

Charlie looks like he's been lifting too. these guys look like they've been kicking their asses in the gym after those losses.

WHAT??? A FOUL ON K-STATE???

Bruce we up, don't hurt your neck

@nuleafjhawk glad u r here

Lets stretch this to 2 or 3 possessions. Shockedogon of Glum.

6 charges, wow!

Late comment, but that charge call on KJ was so bad.

I'm a little behind, but I just saw the worst charge call in the history of all basketball.

Weird game, eh?

@Texas-Hawk-10 plus 1 for us?

I'm impressed with our poise since that first time out @approxinfinity you called it

@Crinsonorblue22 Thanks. Oak Island was boring.

KirkIsMyHinrich said:

Late comment, but that charge call on KJ was so bad.

you mean KJ's play was 3 kinds of awful or the call should have been in his favor?

Grimes charges looked bad too

@approxinfinity I mean that was an obvious blocking foul. The KState player was slipping and shuffling his feet.

BeddieKU23 said:

I'm impressed with our poise since that first time out @approxinfinity you called it

Agbaji the only guy looking a little struck by the atmosophere still after that TO, true.

Wade wasn't set on his

We look decent when k st goes 7 minutes without scoring. They are building some nice brick houses

nuleafjhawk said:

BOOOOO

I'm surprised he's in w/2 fouls

BeddieKU23 said:

Hes in foul trouble as well.

@Crimsonorblue22 I believe they've called 3 apiece.

feed the beast... feed charlie...

KirkIsMyHinrich said:

@approxinfinity I mean that was an obvious blocking foul. The KState player was slipping and shuffling his feet.

I guess you're probably right but when you swing the ball slowly from side to side at waist level while taking 3.5 plodding steps towards the rim amidst 3 defenders you resemble a mack truck backing up more than a competent offensive player.

Plenty of open 10 foot shots for Wade, but those are tough

Crimsonorblue22 said:

I'm surprised he's in w/2 fouls

Cant play Vick tonight. Kid left his brain in Lawrence again

I don't get the sign?

Ugly media bench there

Wade again sloppy.

It's the girls birthday, I guess. Not sharing her cake.

He just blew out her candles

@DanR just dumb

Gotta make that Dedric

Who was that foul on, where's dchawker?

Dedric making a so so defensive player in Wade look decent

State finally gets off 26

Don't want Wade ever getting comfortable.

@Woodrow

Thought the same. At least pile your shoulder into him and force a foul

Good FT defense

Was that Mitch or Charles' fault?

I might have to slo-mo that charlie twirl move

Mitch don't know where chuck is going

Hard screen by Mitch on Charles

BeddieKU23 said:

@Woodrow

He needs to keep driving and draw fouls.

@Crimsonorblue22 it means "I am stupid"

Mitch, come on man!

Crimsonorblue22 said:

Mitch don't know where chuck is going

Makes 2 of them and thousands of us.

Nice ball movement.

Hit those damn layups

Waste of mic there

Can our guy foul our own guy? I'd trade a foul on mitch there for 2 FT's for Charlie

Sorry, Iove me some Chauncey from his time in Detroit, he gets a pass on rambling.

My girl

Huge turn of events there

This blind spin move is not wokring Dedric.

Where was someone cutting into the midddle so we didn't have to try and drive it into that area

There will always be a double team waiting on the spin.

We suck at closing out half’s and gsmes

We should be up 10, but we could be down 10.

Ya. Feel like we could have went in up 8-10

Better with someone else driving and kicking to Dedric like a couple possessions ago.

@approxinfinity The behind the back was as shockingly successful as it was entirely unnecessary.

Right where I wanted us. I predict a 50-27 second half for us.

Van Gundry was waste of mic

@mayjay scared me

I'll take a halftime lead after that start.

12 turnovers needs to not happen in half 2

Mood in the Octagon of Impending Doom seems subdued

Octagon of Dumb

After first 4 minutes, solid B+

DanR said:

Maybe no one else is going to that kid's party either.

Back to the darn driving offense with really no real angles or approach...just drive it into the heart of the defense and throw up a prayer

KirkIsMyHinrich said:

A lot of those were offensive fouls. Strangely prolific in this game.

excellent first half.

Officials are probably Duke fans.

When I saw Van Gundy announcing, I thought it was Jeff. Jeff is a very good and entertaining analyst. I don't think Billups does commentary very often which would explain why he's so awkward. I think he's usually a studio guy.

Van Gundy is just there for the buffet. Right now he's wandering around saying, "There IS a buffet, right?'

DanR said:

Trough.

It's being called one of the most bizarre events in broadcast history tonight. The announcers have not mentioned Duke even once.

Where I work there is me and one other KU fan. Yes, two winners in the whole company. I see and hear purple all day every day. Losing to them would make me puke.

I'm just happy we have a lead after the start, I thought we was gonna get ran out of the building. If we can continue to guard and stop with the TOs we will be in good shape. If we stay in the zone, be careful of the Lob because it's there almost everytime. Hopefully Vick is waking up as we are speaking.

Van Gutdy needs a hotdog immediately.

Tre Jones has terrible shooting form.

@KirkIsMyHinrich #dead

Those guys are so much better than frannie, it's ridiculous. no agendas ...they're complimenting ku, and i certainly remember us facing chauncey back in the day...

Hold on Wisox, DUKE HILGHLIGHTS for the entire halftime.

I hear there's a parody newspaper speech tonight. The state of The Onion.

@DanR I know, as soon as I mention it, THE DUKE HALFTIME SHOW BROUGHT TO YOU BY DUKE

i'm not a sotu kinda guy. i have avoided watching them for decades...

@KUSTEVE I am always shocked how long some guys have been out of college bb...old, old, I feel old. Then I see the grade school kids in the stands, and feel even older.

Hope Ty Jerome is good to go against Duke. F---- DUKE!

@KUSTEVE It's a stupid title - there is no union in any of the states.

Duke vs Virginia...anyone think ESPN announcers will actually orgasm on the air...?

I'm really glad we don't get Dakich doing our games very often. Tonight during the great Illini win over MSU Dakich says "there's a three team race in the BIG, MSU, Purdue, and Michigan, and maybe Wisconsin" Wisconsin is currently tied for 2nd with MSU, one game back.

Does Virginia have a chance??? WHO GIVES A RAT"S ASS....THIS IS KU BB... ya jerks...

I think I remember Chauncey scoring like 40 points in at least one game in AFH West. And lost. He seems to have blocked his college playing days from his mind, which I don't blame him for, because those CU teams were pretty bad.

@DanR I remember several iterations of stars that got theirs for Colorado... and still lost. Alec Burks was another one. Classic Bill Self Big 12 Victory.

All KU fans - the majority of the first half was my fault. Imagine my horror when I noticed I was sitting on the love seat, not the sofa. The problem Has been remedied.

Well, he is regular in that conference and they also can't count to 10, so what do you expect? Not that we can talk...

James putting on weight or is it the purple Lakers uniform? Looking very Barneyesque.

we beat silo tech because Charlie finally came to play, our our long lost Lightfoot comes out of cryogenics, and kicks ass. That's the narrative so far, right? We have a double Lazarus effect going on...

Bruce Weber before the game: WE ARE ABSOLUTELY PREPARED FOR THE ZONE WHAT A PREPOSTEROUS QUESTION!!!

Bruce Weber during the game:

Wow, NCState has scored 96 against UNC tonight, a few days after scoring 24. Of course they gave up 113. Something tells me our game isn't going to end 113 to 96 tonight, although that would be quite exciting.

Give em the ol' Double Mickelson!

@nuleafjhawk I appreciate a man that admits his faults, now don't do it again.

Some help from some un-expected sources - - Mitch nice 1st half - - like 6 rebounds - -5-6 points - - Charlie 2-2 3pt shots - -6 points - - - - a steals we need that

@Bwag Do you have a Still Water when we play O State? Drink Captain Morgan for WVU?

What is in a Waco?

@BShark Weber may be what irks me most about K-State. He is just weird. I don't ever want to lose to a team coached by him or Scott Drew.

@DanR maybe they went to the bday party

Baylor's Irish Cream?

I'm so happy for Mitch, he works so hard and is such a good dude, hopefully he can keep it up.

Van Gundy in post-snack stupor.

Where were these versions of these guys before today? Can we get Devonte to come back once a week?

Did Lightfoot live in KS as a kid?

@tundrahok I think jayballer knew his family.

tundrahok said:

Did Lightfoot live in KS as a kid?

Born in KC, moved to Arizona as a little kid.

Sciambi usually paired with Bill Walton. I guess Walton didn't want to travel to the little apple in February.

tundrahok said:

Did Lightfoot live in KS as a kid?

Born Mitchell Marion Lightfoot in Kansas City, Missouri ... Son of Matt and Rhonda Lightfoot … Has two younger brothers, Miles and Max, and a younger sister, Rhyann ... Moved from Kansas City to Tucson, Arizona, when he was five years old.

There's a quote I never thought I'd hear:
Charlie Moore and Mitch Lightfoot have been the most valuable players on the court for Kansas

Wade got blocked by the rim

Vick has 2 fouls?

Vick must be on the bus

THATS SIR CHARLES TO YOU!

DanR said:

Sciambi does a lot of games with Fran as well.

@Texas-Hawk-10 Thanks, I thought so but couldn't remember. Kansas kids usually get up for this game.

wissox said:

The only defender we have that can get that high.

AND Grimes was right there for the putback. Dig it.

Crimsonorblue22 said:

Vick has 2 fouls?

No. He has 0

Wade just jumped with the ball and then came down with it and then scored.

Announcer said that's why he might b sitting

This is uglier than the first half

Vick off the hot seat.

Alright LV. In the flow dude, in the flow.

So many bad turnovers

Dotson not starting the half well.

Don't let Wade get set shots.

I know I had Charlie as my hawk to rock, I just forgot to click post.

@Texas-Hawk-10 trying to do it all right now

Duh!

Surprised they didn't call Dotson for a charge

That was last year dude

Good D

Back to the loveseat

Good pass

Vick with the ole defense.

Grimes is NOT a physical guard. But he should be.

I call that turnstile defense.

crap call

Grimes is to basketball player as Stay Puff Marshmallow Man is to ghost.

@approxinfinity Do you mean ghostbusters?

yes, I mean he looks beefy, but he's soft.

approxinfinity said:

yes, I mean he looks beefy, but he's soft.

Put him in the ring for a round or two with Hudy?

approxinfinity said:

This looks like a game between two teams that exit the tournament early.

Come on guys, you're letting them in it

If Hudy has a deathmatch cage with flames, spikes and poisonous snakes around the periphery, I think that might help him.

the + / - when Vick is on the floor must have a ginormous spread. When he hits 3s it is way positive. The rest of the time, it is way negative.

Public service announcement: SOTU still going on.

what's that called? bimodal?

I've heard people say he needs to slim down, get quicker

How was that not a foul on Wade?

@mayjay My god is trump going over his tax returns lol

Dedric is expending all his energy bracing for impact then demonstratively pleading for a foul.

Foul?

The turnovers are absolutely going to give me a coronary.

kjayhawks said:

@mayjay My god is trump going over his tax returns lol

The biggest loser of the SOTU is grammar.

We look so bad on offense all of a sudden.

16 turnovers, that's just pathetic

@kjayhawks I think the length is just to make Pelosi suffer for delaying it.

bskeet said:

KSU is good defensively but this is absurd.

Because the refs have determined that the streak is over

wissox said:

LV?

@approxinfinity lv must go

Whatever we adjusted at halftime... Dont

If Vick isn't hitting, he is a liability.

Dean hitting another set shot.

Nothing better then watching Vick play 1 on 1 and miss

Dedric can’t finish with any kind of contact

We have 3 points in 5+ minutes (not counting the end of the first half)

Can we just put the guys who did sh-- right back in?

Guarding empty space

Gotta pull Vick.

catch under basket. Dribble out to 3 point. Shoot. Miss. No rebound (because everyone is wondering, "did that just happen?")

Better wake up fellas or it's gonna get ugly

@approxinfinity It could be LV, took me a minute to understand what LV was!

@approxinfinity

I 2nd that, game getting away

Charlie and Mitch earned the right to finish until proven otherwise.

I feel like they are a play or 2 from blowing this wide open.

Haven't done squat since Vick went in

I have a bad feeling that this one's over.

I know what it is. You have to actually come out if the locker room after halftime... Ya that's it

Wait a minute. Not over fellas.

@approxinfinity

Looks like it. Should know at about the under 8 if this is how its going

Moore has absolutely been better than Vick this game on both ends. The zone helps minimize Charlie's defensive failings.

We needed to keep Wade on his heels. The guys that were producing are now cold. Now we got a headcase back in the equation in LV.

wissox said:

Any coincidence it happened when Vick checked in for Moore, lol?

It's not over, but we have to play defense, rebound and stop the turnovers.

Garbage. Oh well. Back to AFH soon.

Who got blamed for that no foul?

Answer: On the other end of the court.

I like those fake fouls

At least 50% of a refs job is anticipating contact that doesnt happen

No foul call for Dotson and then a foul for Brown when there wasn't one. Cool.

5 pts in 7 minutes looool

vick has a chance to help that +/-

Hey Vick GO UP STRONG

Damn.. What I would do to see Vick go EJ on KSU.

BShark said:

Got to he is killing us

Just seems like we can. Ever hit a big 3. Ochai was wide open.

In some ways it is amazing it's 4 points with 16 turnovers.

I despise referees.

"gentle" thats right Chauncey, tell it like it is "garbage"

Gentle = not

Gentle = not

Gentle = not

Gentle = not

ANOTHER DAM TURNOVER

Pollard wasnt even looking when that ball went out of bounds

Vick!😡👊

Agbaji :-/ settle down man.

WTF

Embarrassing

We are flat out stupid

Freshmen

I never get it when someone says this is embarrassing.

Nice Vick

Gonna be a long day at work tomorrow

@wissox me either

They have no issues knocking down big shots

Wow. Was that a field goal

Good to see they wanna make up the foul calls for K-State this half lmao

it is over

Gee, how did Dedric end up on the floor?

@DanR its K-State. That is the definition of embarrassing

thats 14 feet of wasted talent surrounding Bechard on the bench.

Lol

WIDE OPEN. HELLO VICK.

Vick defensive special number 3 zillion.

well there is West Virginia

Wow, people proclaiming this game is over. Then go to bed. Why watch?

Oh my god. LOOK AT THE DAMN PLAYER WHEN YOU PASS

Please get Vick out of there.

Vick is driving me insane

Put Vick in so the other team can practice 3 pointers.

Self - - would you PLEASE GET VICK THE HELL OUT

SO BAD VICK! SO BAD!

That's the way. Throw it into the crowd. We play better when the crowd is involved

Vick offensive special number 3 zillion

Vick sucks period

@approxinfinity
LOL

Please sub Mitch for Vick!

Just simple stuff is all we need

hard to play 5-6 on the floor - - K-state 5 -- then VICK

Oddly, I still enjoy the Phillips 66 ads.

Vick - spot up shooter at this point...

@Crimsonorblue22 simple stuff like throw it to your teammate.

Pine rider

Please put anybody in for Vick jeez Louise

@cragarhawk I was going to go with "arborist"

@jayballer73 the difference is west virginia has had some good teams - ksu is a hundred plus years of mediocrity

Vick getting rid of the zeros on his line tonight

Haha

Bwag said:

doesn't have time to spot up - - much rather throw the ball away

we because cant even pass to a wide open player

never thought I would see the day when I would say, Moore for Vick.... please!

@Bwag

In all the wrong spots. Got to be about his 5th turnover

Has Grimes been in this half?

! ↗

We are 4-14 from 3 and down by 6. Two more makes and we're tied. Plenty of time left.

nuleafjhawk said:

Not really though, KSU has a pretty solid basketball history overall.

@mayjay

Yeah he started but his effort was about as good as vick

Plenty of time to get it together.

Grimes was better than Vick. Everyone's been better than Vick.

Aargh Vick!!!

My poor three year old looks a little shell shocked...His name is Vic.

Lawson, Lightfoot, Agabaji, Dotson, Moore.

Will we get another quality look this half

@dylans Maybe stop cussing Vick out?

There's 1

foul.

Lack of O rebounding is hurting us too

And 2

@Texas-Hawk-10 not against us

alright Grimes. Glimmers of the player he could be.

Hello, Grimes

We have more talent. But they don't know how to play together.

Charge. Shock.

WTF

That's their favorite call

Wade gets to whack Dedric as expected.

Its ok Ochai. Worse things. Keep this run going.

What a crock.

Ochai has been really bad as well

Why do KU rookies take 15 to 20 games before they stop running into people?

bad call...

Why is Vick back?

looooool ok refs

weebles wobble and they fall down

So many bad charge calls today.

20 turnovers

KirkIsMyHinrich said:

Gotta make the adjustment to how the refs are calling it.

At least we'll get a new season record tonight. For turnovers.

And yet only down by 7

The charging call arm signal is by far the best thing a ref gets to do, so I kind of understand.

we need to start falling down

Our FT defense is keeping us in this one.

Zero toughness and ball control on the road with this team.

Now 3

The refs aren't stopping D Lawson.

True. But the refs also need to adjust their heads out of their rectums.

@dylans Is Marcus Smart is the house?

Any reason McCormack hasn't played tonight?

Mawien has nothing for Dedric.

I think LV must be super sincere when he tells Self he's not gonna suck any more.

Ugh

One

Looks like Dedric is done passing the ball for the night.

I loathe referees

Right about when we need a run to start, we shoot ourselves in the foot.

Grimes do you have any basketball IQ. Could have had a rebound, tried to punch it and then fouls. Typical

@Texas-Hawk-10 very good question

wissox said:

visions of Duke v Wisconsin?

Wake up guys guys just for 5 minutes

wissox said:

That was our "stand around, watch DL, don't rebound, and foul for good measure" play

If we could go ahead and not play like we've never seen a ball before for the last 5 or so min that would be great....

Time to close out like the 2nd part of first half

Bwag said:

Time to close out like the 2nd part of first half

But not sure we have the mental toughness to do so...but one can hope

@Bwag Thanks for the reminder..

Man, the choice tonight--watch our team acting like it can't play, or watch a whole chamber of politicians who can't govern.

That play will be the difference. Down 3 after getting it down to 1 and then give them free shots on a dumb play. Could have had possession

Yea closing games hasn’t exactly been our forte this year. But maybe this time...

7-3 FT count this half and Dedric has been fouled about 10 times this half.

F--k Bruce Weber.

Nice sign ! 6 months till football. Cuz we suck at basketball. Oh wait - we suck at football too!

Been beating on Dedric all game.

That's their game plan.

What happened there

Dedrick got onionized, I think.

Gee, I don't know why Dedric keeps falling.

Knee to knee

Grab the ball, Mitch

We are just throwing up complete shit

Sweet vick

maximize that 2

that was off Wade's leg.

Dammit

Vick - spot up shooter

Gotta box out

bskeet said:

And I see everything.

9-3 on foul count now.

bskeet said:

wondered that too.

Unbelievable. Grab a board someone.

box out and board ... or be water boarded at practice this week

Come on Dedric, pass it to the wing.

What happened to Dedric?

Blueprint to beat Dedric, beat the crap out of him.

Woodrow said:

Unbelievable. Grab a board someone.

nah

we sure don't get those calls...except for Dotson...he does

phantom foul on grimes 10-3 foul count. Really hard to win on the road with officiating like this.

Does anyone EVER remember a KU team that has played so sloppy taking care of the ball EVER

Ok Vick. Ok.

fouls starting to get onesided here

Vick seems fired up

Open Letter to all the B12 Teams: Enjoy this year. It's not the kind of KU team you see except once every 15-20 years.

Lucky 3 there. Good D.

Is there any chance we could get a stop or two? Guess not....

2 pt game...lets get it

Not good, Grimes.

What shot was that grimes?

I hate diarra

@jayballer73 team? No. Tyshawn? Yes.

lucky shot

Game. Blouses.

LOL @ Grimes

Over

Ya. Let's get it to one possession and then have an epileptic seisure on the floor

@Crimsonorblue22 He got confused by the pregame rebounding drill.

that's all folks

back to our drive into heart of defense and throw up a prayer...damn folks, run an offense

bskeet said:

This is the 4th or 5th team like this in the past 15 years. 2005-06, 2008-09, 2013-14, and 2014-15.

Maybe the NCAA should suspend another player on our team. About the only way they play with passion at this point

@Texas-Hawk-10 I don't think any were like this.

KState has been granted foul-immunity for the last 10 minutes of the game.

BeddieKU23 said:

I vote LV off the island.

Last couple minutes could be interesting

Last 6 fouls have been called against us. They haven't called one in 10 minutes against them.

When were we lower than a #6 seed? That's where this team is.

KirkIsMyHinrich said:

Yep, they can do w/e they want on defense. Not that KU is executing well but still.

On the road coming into this game KU has been called for 20 more fouls then the other team so it's no longer a coincidence we just mug for a living

TWENTY ONE possessions - where we couldn't even attempt a shot - -because of carelessness - -TWENT ONE possessions we have given them to get free points at our expense

BeddieKU23 said:

Over

OVER

Can anyone on KU hit a big 3

@bskeet football season Will be here soon

Woodrow said:

Can anyone on KU hit a big 3

Nope

lets all stand around and watch the shot go up.

I love it when our game plan is for Vick to jack shit for the final 3.5 min

@jayballer73 Why are you watching? YOu said it was over ten minutes ago.

Lawson can’t guard Wade

Dedric doesn't even step when he goes

bskeet said:

@Texas-Hawk-10 I don't think any were like this.

Yes they were, all very young teams that struggled big time at different points in the season. 2005-06 team was 3-4 at one point, 2013-14 lost 10 games and 2014-15 lost 9 games. 2008-09 only one with an experienced guard, but next to no experience in the post.

Not over guys

Woodrow said:

Lawson can’t guard Wade

He's usually not so overmatched athletically.

Lol

That makes 4 on Dedric, Dotson, and Grimes. Two of those make me nervous.

Dedric is done.

OMG

Hell next time just step across half court and throw it up Moore

@DanR Feel free to reconsider

@DanR Feel free to reconsider

@drgnslayr 's wife has a name for players like this. It starts with P and rhymes with wussies

Wow stupid shots

Crowd will get nervous and the kitties will get tight.

cragarhawk said:

Exactly

Chauncey hasn't noticed 11:30 of clock time has elapsed since last KSU foul but complains we committed one. He probably hates us too because he lost to us so often.

Look , I know if Chucky Moore can show up like Sir Charles tonight, anyone can.. I'm trying to not say something absolute about LV atm. Just having a very hard time getting excited about any positives.

@DanR and we'll miss shots, throw the ball away and foul unnecessarily

12 fouls to 3 this half ain't cool. But if we actually take care of the ball we are up 8

zone now out of break? or triangle and 2 for a possession or two to confuse?

You gotta look really hard for the positive... And the silver lining is...

I'm lookin...

cragarhawk said:

I'm lookin...

No one got hurt. Yet.

Wide open set shot for a slow unathletic dude that can only shoot set shots. Dedric is done.

And that'll do it

KSU avg 14.4 fouls at home Ku avg 18 fouls on the road. Tonight’s game seems like a bit of an outlier.

just pass to whoever is being covered by Vick

Vick drop off special D.

Well, had a real chance before the d went braindead and gave KSU an open corner 3.

KState with fouls to give thanks to 3 guys who want KSU to win.

BULLS___T

Can’t even throw it in. Pathetic

Special trip and strip D by KSU.

Guys are too young

I know Vick gets a ton of crap for his defense, but the Sneed 3 was good offense. Vick had 2 guys in his zone and he tried to stop the ball first which is what you're supposed to do.

mayjay said:

Special trip and strip D by KSU.

If that non-call doesn't tell one all they need to know about the refs in this game...

Strips are a lot easier when you can trip the guy your are stealing from.

That looks like a deep bench over there.

2md half officiating was trash.

10 point loss.

Breaks my heart to see Silvio having to comfort DD. Guy has class.

Can you imagine KSU fans if a KU player dunked like that to close out a game against them? lol

wow, foul discrepancy is lopsided and this team is done

@Texas-Hawk-10 Horrible.

making KSU look great in the new system.

Night y'all

NOW VEE DANZ!

R the saying f ku?

Silo rave after the game! wooooooo

Classiest fans

21-14 PF discrepancy

Welp this sucks

I'm still hoping for some sort of miracle to shut the fans up

BShark said:

@Crimsonandblue12 I wouldn't expect anything more.

Just can't win on the road to save their lives

I think we're not very good at basketball

Crimsonorblue22 said:

Been doing that all night.

Embarrassing

Crimsonorblue22 said:

Are you surprised?

This really might have been an exciting finish, but there's no chance when you combine bad offense and bad officiating.

Bwag said:

21-14 PF discrepancy

And first half was equal or very close to it.

Dunk didn't bother me at all with a minute left and 7 pt lead.

I've never known a team to fall completely apart during the last 2-3 mins of a ball game.

@Texas-Hawk-10 I heard it earlier

KSU was physically and mentally tougher. Neither are surprising.

This team has NO fight at all

If we just took care of the damn ball

Hell, I don't even mind Bruce and this particular group of players, but the fans are pretty trashy.

If LV never enters the game, we win.

@Woodrow Dean Wade fully back makes them dangerous.

Remember when we were gonna be crazy good and deep this year. Those were the days

@approxinfinity Sad but true.

This team just keeps losing in the same way. They are not getting better.

Geez

Well. Good game, boys.

mayjay said:

I'm not scared of Wade. He's a set shooter with size. Looked awful first half.

@cragarhawk Too deep, if I recall! How to find enough minutes for the players?

Now, it is how to find the players for the minutes!

two possession game

Idk why ppl keep talking about the streak ending this year. When it likely already did last year. Shut up about it already.

This game may have just decided the B12 champion

God. We will hear the question "Is this the year" for the next three weeks when its frickin obvious.

@bskeet except its not... Lol. Last year was the year once they vacate all the shit

Garrett Luinstra, wow

Okay, now THAT dunk I can agree is tacky!

Classy dunk with less than 1 second.

Fine them

storm the court LOL.

TV is now off.

Storm the court you f--ckers!!! Storm it!!! Ya!!!

classy

Did Van Gundy go to college?

Imagine being in first place and rushing the court.

How many schools charge the court when they beat a team trailing them?

So Barry Brown with the dick move to end the game?

mayjay said:

@mayjay good point!

Desperate!

Let the fools have their tartar sauce.

Watch the delivery rooms in 9 months in Manhattan.

Lmao

@bskeet Bovine gestation is 9 months?

@Texas-Hawk-10 I thought it was diarrhea

Wellp. How much more motivation do we need when we play them on the 25th?

What usually happens is KState falls apart after the thrill of beating KU at home, so we'll see how their season goes from here on out.

I'll be there, and I'll be loud!

At least 10 less turnovers more motivation

BShark said:

We are talking K- State lmao. - -I think the MOST idiotic thing I seen all night was a sign that said we own this state - -roflmmfao. - - ew have won 25-the last 31 and they own the state? - - get the F off me lmao

Let's hope everyone else has 5-6 shitty games

How the hell am I gonna get tickets and flights to Zimbabwe for the first round game this year....

I have tix to the OU game, ugh

Pooooooooop

There were two shows on TV where I could witness a reality distortion field. I picked this one.

@cragarhawk The good news if we do get sent to Zimbabwe, Silvio might find an Afican court to get an injunction allowing him to play.

Do you think Bill Walton is the Lakers' weed dealer?

@mayjay silver linings all over the place!

@approxinfinity He could never bear to part with enough to be an effective dealer.

We let up 74 points to the worst offense in the B12 mainly because turnovers.

If I lived in LA, was a lottery pick that produced for the team, and had to deal with an imposter megalomaniac who was trying to get me traded, I'd be blazed too.

@BShark lol :)

Need a Baylor loss tomorrow and Baylor win Saturday and we are right back in it. We play both teams at home again no need to panic yet.

The over was the winning bet at 131.5. I was right on my guess for KUs 67 points. I just thought KSU would have 65 to make it interesting.

That unforced Vick no look pass into the stands is burned into my retinas.

g'night from SC, y'all. 77 and sunny here tomorrow. Hope the sun rises nicely for you wherever you may be. After all, it is just a game.

A @$^##%##% frustrating game.

@approxinfinity Vick was baaad and not in a good way. Throw Grimes in there as well.

later man!

Ochai and Grimes killed us with missed shots and TOs. Dotson had his but he touches the ball every trip.

Grimes and Ochai were bad. But Vick was the killer. I'd rather have had a mix of Charlie, KJ and Grimes in there instead of Vick. It would have been 4.5 on 5 instead of 4 on 6.

We were basically down 2 starters friends and showed our youth at the guard spots. Let's take out some anger on OSU Saturday.

Hahaha Vick was so bad on defense the refs couldn’t even call a foul on him.

Heck even Mr no defense Grimes had 4 fouls. Including a charge (or two?) at least he moved his feet occasionally.

It's pick OUR poison with Vick, Grimes, and Moore. One or more always kills us.
