Happy Thanksgiving all and Rock Chalk
Shots falling for Elmarko and Mari is a big confidence boost to them. Their defense was much better this week then previously. Both played hard and super proud of them. Very surprised tbh but happy to eat some crow on this duo.
It was cool to see teammates knew Elmarko was on a heater and Melvin followed his lead so they let them get downhill. That's this team's identity, getting to the rack. Even if it doesn't create an easier perimeter shots for this team.
Council and White give us a dynamic we haven't had the last few years, they know how to draw contact and get to the line, especially White. He's racking up FT attempts by just being a savy player, already twice as many makes as anyone else on the team. He seeks contact and that's something that's a big asset for this team.
Wow. Imagining this is a KU uni in March
Huge win. That was the most fun I've had that last 10 minutes in over a yr it felt
Team grew up this week. Love it
Alright I'm starting to believe
Mari and Elmarko have definitely redeemed themselves this week
Big time shot Mari
That was fun
AND 1 WHERES THE CALL
MELVIN
Rebound.
Lol white.
Council 2-12. Yeah
Can't have those turnovers
Some life. Elmarko on fire
Sure the 3 games in 3 days is wearing on this group. Feels like its always our excuse tho. Im just gonna leave it at that
Sure it matters. We don't look capable of beating good teams is what im seeing
Nice job white. Take yourself out
Team isnt even playing hard
Seriously bill
Flory is gassed
Stop Flory. Your killing us
Nice Melvin more of that
Get your head out your ass bidunga
White is a baller
We'd be winning if we could score. 5/19 from the field
Council never heard of a backboard before
Shots not going down. Not good
Jeez flory finish man
Yeah he's done a great job there. Just seems like he has issues in March. Obviously not easy to win a title, who knows this group might be one to breakthrough
Purdon't is good this yr but don't worry they will find a way to lose in March
Your AI friends getting mad?
Dawg
Heck of a win all things considered
Signing off!
For those interested in Jayden Dawson.
"X-rays are still pending," Self said. "Apparently, he hurt it dunking in warmups, so it's his right wrist. So, I bet he's doubtful for the [Players Era Festival], but I do not know that for a fact. But he went in today and then obviously said he couldn't go, so that was disappointing because we're kind of short-handed right now."
Kid can't catch a break. Need him out there.
And without their leading scorer who's out like Peterson.
Hopefully we benefit from tired legs from Cuse going to OT. They look really tough
Cuse really hanging with Houston. That's worrisome for tomm
White has been really good and stepped up his play. Plays hard all the time.
Bench saved their bacon in 2nd half.
Didn't really do much. Self went to the bench in 2nd half
Good enough to win today at least. Heavy minutes from the starters is the only concern for tomm
Soft touch Flory.
Margin of victory matters
Comical
Not sure Bill has ever practiced getting the ball in
Bidunga staying out of foul trouble helps
Great shot Mari. Saved the game
