Mar 15, 2019 01:45 AM #11

@approxinfinity There you go! Our leading scorer!

Mar 15, 2019 01:45 AM #12

Dave the difference today

Mar 15, 2019 01:45 AM #13

Dynomitehawk was hide yo kidz guy.

Mar 15, 2019 01:45 AM #14

@approxinfinity I think Hide Yo Kids was nuleaf? Had Dynomite JJ as an avatar

Mar 15, 2019 01:46 AM #15

Wasn't he holding before the shot?

Mar 15, 2019 01:46 AM #16

Big Dave is in the house.

Mar 15, 2019 01:46 AM #17

Happy learned how to putt? Nice ft Dave!

Mar 15, 2019 01:48 AM #18

When Shaka paces people should chant "Waka Shaka Waka Shaka". I mean, I would.

Mar 15, 2019 01:48 AM #19

Great ball movement.

Mar 15, 2019 01:48 AM #20

Let your hair grow, Shaka.

Mar 15, 2019 01:49 AM #21

Nice move Lawson.

Mar 15, 2019 01:49 AM #22

Classic carry the ball so the D freezes then run right by them.

Mar 15, 2019 01:50 AM #23

Big Dave needs a breather

Mar 15, 2019 01:51 AM #24

Grimes can't stay in front of Ramey. :fire:

Mar 15, 2019 01:52 AM #25

Great start but it went away quickly.

Mar 15, 2019 01:52 AM #26

Dave had a lane open for Grimes and he passed it up. Come on, man.

Mar 15, 2019 01:52 AM #27

Least surprising thing ever.

Mar 15, 2019 01:52 AM #28

It was a good start then we stopped being aggressive and losing guys on d. Settle down

Mar 15, 2019 01:53 AM #29

@BeddieKU23 we stopped scoring too

Mar 15, 2019 01:53 AM #31

@DanR

I figured we wouldn't every trip down.

Mar 15, 2019 01:55 AM #32

@BeddieKU23 Dave, Dedric, and Ochai clanked three in a row though.

Mar 15, 2019 01:55 AM #33

I'll take this start over half our games lately.

Mar 15, 2019 01:55 AM #34

Dave seem to be limping this game?

Mar 15, 2019 01:56 AM #35

Threes are not the answer

Mar 15, 2019 01:56 AM #36

@approxinfinity limped it off

Mar 15, 2019 01:56 AM #37

We just can't shoot worth a hoot

Mar 15, 2019 01:57 AM #38

Looks like a fun group behind the goal!

Mar 15, 2019 01:58 AM #39

Charlie sighting

Mar 15, 2019 01:58 AM #40

Nice defense that trip.

Mar 15, 2019 01:58 AM #41

Prison Mitch the intimidator forces the shot clock violation!

Mar 15, 2019 01:58 AM #42

I thought hepa was a girl

@BeddieKU23 he was on that USA team w/grimes

Mar 15, 2019 01:59 AM #47

Are we even mad if Grimes goes pro? Like, w/e.

Mar 15, 2019 02:00 AM #48

@Crimsonorblue22

The long hair braid isnt working

Mar 15, 2019 02:00 AM #49

Can someone post a video when Grimes drove the ball to the hoop this year and actually scored?

Mar 15, 2019 02:00 AM #50

@BShark

Sure makes making layups or anything in general seem like brain surgery

Mar 15, 2019 02:00 AM #51

Wonder why Mitch came in for Dedric instead of Dave... Cedric as one foul, but still.

Mar 15, 2019 02:01 AM #52

@joeloveshawks Successful grimes layup vid doesn't exist since high school. I have no idea how he missed that last one that Dave cleaned up.

Mar 15, 2019 02:01 AM #53

2/fouls?

Mar 15, 2019 02:01 AM #54

I'm old enough to remember when KU had guards that could shoot.

Mar 15, 2019 02:01 AM #55

@BShark you're at least a year old?

Mar 15, 2019 02:02 AM #56

Ewww

Mar 15, 2019 02:03 AM #57

Charlie with his 64th shot without looking at the basket

Mar 15, 2019 02:03 AM #58

Those kind of non hustle plays dooms a team like ours.

Mar 15, 2019 02:03 AM #59

@wissox

That was sad

Mar 15, 2019 02:03 AM #60

@wissox agree

Mar 15, 2019 02:04 AM #61

Couldn't happen to a better ref!

Mar 15, 2019 02:05 AM #62

Not a fan of Marcus hanging out on the perimeter, sure he's always open there, but ...

Mar 15, 2019 02:05 AM #63

Sims traveled

Mar 15, 2019 02:05 AM #64

Dedric needs to get his head out of his ass

Mar 15, 2019 02:05 AM #65

Bad ball/grinder gear hoops

Mar 15, 2019 02:06 AM #66

Good d

Mar 15, 2019 02:06 AM #67

Wow...you gotta make that Och

Mar 15, 2019 02:07 AM #68

I guess dedric doesnt wanna play

Mar 15, 2019 02:07 AM #69

11 points in 5 minutes then uhhhhhh

Mar 15, 2019 02:07 AM #70

@BShark

We are the best at missing layups

Mar 15, 2019 02:07 AM #71

Were those photos of Dotson from his senior year in high school?

Mar 15, 2019 02:08 AM #72

Little late on the foul call ref

Mar 15, 2019 02:08 AM #73

Oh sweet, a Zion update. THANKS

Mar 15, 2019 02:08 AM #74

On Coleman?

Mar 15, 2019 02:09 AM #75

ZSPN is going to show some Zion highlights? What a TREAT!

Mar 15, 2019 02:09 AM #76

The only Zion update I want is that they found indisputable evidence that Duke paid him 500,000 to play in Durham.

Mar 15, 2019 02:09 AM #77

Just be thankful ESPN didny cancel this game due to Zion coming back

Who could have guessed, ESPN?

Mar 15, 2019 02:11 AM #79

Well, we're stone cold again and haven't fallen to 20 down thanks to some decent D, so I think things are actually looking up at this point.

Mar 15, 2019 02:11 AM #80

I've never been so unexcited about a fabulous ballplayer in my life.

Mar 15, 2019 02:11 AM #81

Zion is going to be a very fat guy in about 4 years. Barkley fat.

Mar 15, 2019 02:12 AM #82

F u refs

Mar 15, 2019 02:12 AM #83

Wow that could have been one of those hook and hold calls.

Mar 15, 2019 02:12 AM #84

Just force feed Dave. Screw it.

Mar 15, 2019 02:14 AM #91

@wissox Come on, you watched Wisconsin average like 35 points a game

Mar 15, 2019 02:14 AM #92

Dotson was hacked, no call.

Mar 15, 2019 02:15 AM #93

About time for a timeout. We look terrible

Mar 15, 2019 02:15 AM #94

Did they show Big Dave the old Richard Scott post-up highlight reel? That was great.

Mar 15, 2019 02:15 AM #95

6 points in 9 minutes is not good. #Analysis

Mar 15, 2019 02:15 AM #96

Tail slowing him down?

Mar 15, 2019 02:17 AM #97

kJ wake up

Mar 15, 2019 02:17 AM #98

@DanR Ha, that's what their great defense gives up!

Mar 15, 2019 02:17 AM #99

Grimes dont ever shoot

Mar 15, 2019 02:17 AM #100

Grimes gets contact

Mar 15, 2019 02:17 AM #101

Just dunk it, Grimes. Good grief.

Mar 15, 2019 02:17 AM #102

We really can't guard their pick and roll

Mar 15, 2019 02:17 AM #103

Bs

Mar 15, 2019 02:18 AM #104

Unbelievable. Terrible drive, worse call.

Mar 15, 2019 02:19 AM #111

Self needs to get a hold of these refs

Mar 15, 2019 02:19 AM #112

Missouri guy Kurtis Seaboldt even said that was a bad call and clearly wasn't off Garrett.

Mar 15, 2019 02:19 AM #113

These guys get paid to ref. Its unexcusable

Mar 15, 2019 02:19 AM #114

Really need Ochai or Garrett to do something offensively.

Mar 15, 2019 02:20 AM #115

Well it sure isn't going to be a still injured Garrett.

Garrett playing on one leg. Just a liability on that end

Mar 15, 2019 02:20 AM #117

Just rewatched the play before the Timeout. They make a bad pass, the dude has to jump high and reach way back to catch it which makes it look like a foul on us. #refsworsethaneverthisyear.

Mar 15, 2019 02:21 AM #118

@wissox

I mean the play b4 that Garrett kicked it off his imaginary leg. They r special

Mar 15, 2019 02:21 AM #119

@wissox like grimes pushed him from behind?

Mar 15, 2019 02:22 AM #120

Big Dave came to play. Dot has had a few plays. Nobody else helping

Mar 15, 2019 02:22 AM #121

@Crimsonorblue22 I guess that's what they called.

Mar 15, 2019 02:22 AM #122

Freaking foul

Mar 15, 2019 02:23 AM #123

He was out

Mar 15, 2019 02:23 AM #124

Go to hell refs

Mar 15, 2019 02:23 AM #125

Holy shit...refs really are sucking

Mar 15, 2019 02:23 AM #126

Dot got tackled

Mar 15, 2019 02:24 AM #127

Osetkowski God damn Tackled dotson

Mar 15, 2019 02:24 AM #128

Horrible. Dotson tackled by the Longhorn linebacker.

Mar 15, 2019 02:24 AM #129

Texas could kill a guy in the paint and there would be no foul called.

Mar 15, 2019 02:24 AM #130

Stepped on the line too

Mar 15, 2019 02:24 AM #131

Ball doth not lie.

Mar 15, 2019 02:24 AM #132

Self, get on those refs or their gonna steal this game

Mar 15, 2019 02:24 AM #133

Self is 18 shades of red. Only 25 more to go before he gets pissed

Mar 15, 2019 02:25 AM #134

Why won’t the bigs reset the offense? Black hole down low.

Mar 15, 2019 02:25 AM #135

Don't leave febreeze

Mar 15, 2019 02:25 AM #136

No blood no foul. Prison rules.

Mar 15, 2019 02:25 AM #137

Grimes may shoot blindfolded. Change my mind

Mar 15, 2019 02:26 AM #138

You can only play this bad for so long before the inevitable happens

Mar 15, 2019 02:26 AM #139

Nice little 7-0 run since the refs decided Kansas no longer deserved to be leading this game.

Mar 15, 2019 02:26 AM #140

1-5 (20%) from three as a team. Ridiculous. Grimes is having one of his worst games yet, and that's saying something.

Mar 15, 2019 02:27 AM #141

Garrett killed

I'm shocked that KJ passed that. Good job, dude.

Mar 15, 2019 02:29 AM #146

Impressed he went hard on that

Mar 15, 2019 02:29 AM #147

Should Self have pressed McCormack into more minutes much earlier?

Chuck steal?

Mar 15, 2019 02:29 AM #149

Huge play by Marcus and big dave

Mar 15, 2019 02:29 AM #150

What do we have 1.5 starters out there right now?

Absolutely

The moment Doke got hurt.

Mar 15, 2019 02:31 AM #153

These refs need to find different careers. Way too much contact, even for the big 12

Mar 15, 2019 02:31 AM #154

Wow, we're 4-10 on FT's.

Mar 15, 2019 02:32 AM #155

About par for the course

Mar 15, 2019 02:32 AM #157

Whelp. A tie at halftime. I assume Self is in the locker room piling a truck load of wood to start a bonfire under Dedric's butt.

Mar 15, 2019 02:32 AM #158

12-28 from the floor including 1-5 from 3. And tied...

Mar 15, 2019 02:35 AM #164

They couldn't wait to start talking about Duke. This ESPN is out of control. Do they realize how much Americans are tired of their obsession over Duke?

Little dweeb ESPN guy (probably fired after tonight) pointed out that Duke had a guy that tripped a lot.

Mar 15, 2019 02:36 AM #168

Our shooting is horrendous...

BeddieKU23 said:

Well to try to look at it objectively I'd suppose ESPN would say they're just giving Americans what they want because our ratings are higher when we show Duke/talk about Duke or whatever. Baseball is the same as they force feed America the Yankees. MLB network does the same thing.

Mar 15, 2019 02:45 AM #173

@wissox

People that don't follow basketball know him. Feeding the beast. We see it as overkill when they cut to a pregame of a duke game before the KU game is over with or showing Duke highlights between every commercial. ESPN will never be what they used to

Mar 15, 2019 02:45 AM #174

Turgeon suffered an embarrassing defeat today when they lost to 13 seed Nebraska which is down to 6 scholarship players because of injuries and suspensions.

Mar 15, 2019 02:47 AM #175

OK, let's please play some decent ball in the second half. I know it's asking a lot.

Mar 15, 2019 02:49 AM #176

I dislike osetkowski

Mar 15, 2019 02:51 AM #177

3 on Lawson. Danger Will Robinson Danger.

Mar 15, 2019 02:51 AM #178

Dedrics had about 4 passes deflected for telegraphing

Mar 15, 2019 02:52 AM #179

3 on Hayes now

Mar 15, 2019 02:52 AM #180

Lawson has some moves that Hayes haven't seen before. Can't guard him.

Mar 15, 2019 02:53 AM #181

Go syracuse

Mar 15, 2019 02:53 AM #182

Glad we didn't miss the dunk of the year or something because they're showing some kids mom and dad. Besides the ESPN love of Duke they do the stupidest things like that.

Talks a good game. But Allen and Bamba are selling the program. Always seems to be 1 elite talent in their back yard each yr.

Grimes is shining for a nice stretch here. But that's what makes him such a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma

(as Winston Churchill would say)

Mar 15, 2019 03:03 AM #211

I have watched a lot of basketball in my life and I have never seen someone that can shoot with the most confidence in the world and then the complete and utter lack of it in the same game. It’s amazing how Q just goes in and out of the flow of the game.

Personally, I preferred when he took a guarded look with Dedric all over him compared to the open look.

Big Dave has had some good tap outs to give us new possessions today. Not sure if they count as rebounds, but they're just as valuable.

Mar 15, 2019 03:56 AM #353

I really liked our defense tonight for the most part. We looked more like the old high low days with David and Dedric in. Which worked pretty good, if we could some of Grimes and Ochai's perimeter shots to go down. I thought Grimes had some good defensive stops tonight. I'm not sure if Ochai's shin is still bugging him but we are gonna need some outside scoring. We only shot 11 3s tonight, most were good looks.

Mar 15, 2019 04:37 AM #371

I still say Texas is foolish for canning Barnes, you'd think making the tournament every year (only missed 1) and getting a conference title every now and then would be fine in football land. The new facility they are building is only to seat 10,000 compared to 16,540 for the Erwin center. The highest avg attendance I could find was when KD was there at just over 14k. Usually I look at road game tickets and Texas and Oklahoma are usually the cheapest. Crazy to think people wouldn't spent $10-$15 to see KD in college. I'd go as a Basketball fan for that price just to see KD.

Mar 15, 2019 04:38 AM #372

@CRH107 no. I was at AFH last time we played them, totally different teams.

Mar 15, 2019 04:45 AM #373

@kjayhawks Barnes needed to go at Texas. He lost 11+ games his last 4 years (14+ in 3 of those years). He failed to make it past the 1st weekend in his final 6 tournament appearances at Texas and 11 of 16 overall. Texas needed to make a change because they had become very stale under Barnes.

Just because Shaka busted there doesn't mean they weren't wrong for getting rid of Barnes.

Mar 15, 2019 11:05 AM #374

West Virginia played out of their mind yesterday. They will come back to earth on 3rd game in 3 days. Banking on it.

Have to rebound tonight and make shots.

Mar 15, 2019 11:07 AM #375

It wasn't pretty and Grimes pretty much bricked every open 3/layup he attempted but getting 12 points from him was huge last night. 7-8 from the line was the best he's shown all season long.

Mar 15, 2019 12:37 PM #376

Grimes was the best defender yesterday don’t @ me.

Mar 15, 2019 12:51 PM #377

@BeddieKU23 There was a stretch there where I was wondering if our set offense was to have Grimes come down and clank a shot. And on cue, the moment Charlie Moore touched the ball he immediately drove and threw up a miss.

What makes it worse is I don't see anything wrong with Grimes form. It's not like Garrett or Moore's ugly looking side shot. His form looks solid but I'm perplexed why his success rate isn't as high. I guess my expectations were higher then reality for him

Mar 15, 2019 03:54 PM #379

@Texas-Hawk-10 That maybe true but I still don't think they can get anyone better with how big Football is down there. Shoot they couldn't even fill the place with KD.

Mar 15, 2019 03:59 PM #380

@BeddieKU23 Grimes shot is unbelievably flat. And that is something that can be fixed, just not midseason. For dramatic and not perfect comparison, let's look at just two still photos that I've drawn the ball path on (poorly). One is a tight up Grimes make vs. MSU. Not even Grimes flattest shot. The other is Curry from the opposite side of the floor, very zoomed out. Curry's ball literally made the camera move up to be able to fit the ball in the full video. It would have gone off of the screen had it stayed still. The Apex is probably 15 feet above the rim. Grimes' ball is, at it's apex, maybe 5 feet above the rim?

Now Ray Allen didn't have the biggest arch and he was a great shooter. But he also had the arch that Grimes has on Grimes best shots. Every time. So this seems like a poor approach to take imo.

I personally think Grimes will eventually be a consistent shooter. However, it will likely take an offseason to retrain his brain to shoot with a different arch than he currently has.

@Kcmatt7 @BeddieKU23 Maybe the coaches can work with him on his shot over the summer? Uh, well ... maybe skip that, so says Udoka and Garrett.

That's if they even get the chance. Still rumblings he's leaving regardless of his season

@HighEliteMajor We have seen improvements from guys. But I do think they are likely from work they do on their own. Mason, Svi, Vick, Ellis, and T-Rob all come to mind as guys that drastically improved their shooting from where they started.

Grimes wanted to shoot those freebies. I like that.

I noticed that as well. Didn’t give it up to Dotson intentionally. I wasn’t pleased at the moment, but if it helps him grow a pair, great.

This would shock me. He still has so much to gain by coming back as what would be a young Sophomore.

@BShark they just paid Strong 10 million to go and have been asking for funding the new basketball arena. I was doubtful they had the 13 million to get rid of him in a sport no one cares about in Texas.
