They wouldn't have 20 points if it wasn't for shit poor turnovers
Tg och is back
Our real lineup is in and who knee we'd lead
Och coming back

Just out of pure curiousity guys - - wondering WHY Baylor & West Virginia is playing their game at 4 today on a week day Anyone know ?
Because the Duke show is on at 9 and Jay Bilas needs to be in his hotel to see it
14-0 run by west virginia. Lead down to 2!!!

@BeddieKU23 that's absolutely nuts. Who would've thought it?
Very surprising but encouraging
You make a fine Robin in his absence
Whoa

Love it!
A reason to keep ball screen offense apart of our offense as much as possible

Good point about Harris as I did not know he was near the top in that statistic but it makes sense because for the most part he has been a really steady hand.
I have my criticism of him as an offensive player and I think when he's a non scoring threat for 30 minutes in a game it does have a bit of snowball effect if the team around him isn't producing as we have seen in some games. He usually has one of his better games scoring when KU is up big so it's something I think has the ability to handcuff this team down the road. However I have seen improvement and development from him and the kid just goes out there and plays and has the same face on 98% of the time. Nothing seems to phase him.
Bobby certainly looks like the mental aspect of the injury may be impacting him. It sounds like he really didn't have a lot of practice time before being put into the fire again so it makes sense he might be behind again. You could tell with full court pressure that he struggled with that he just needs some time to get back to playing.
Teams go on runs with Mitch in and having rewatched some recent games Mitch gets caught switching on the perimeter and its not pretty. Perhaps the recent uptick in minutes for KJ at the 5 is in regards to some struggles Mitch has had in situations the staff is also seeing
Agree about this team playing fast and pushing pace. They have done a much better job this year doing that. The big-12 just has teams with styles of play that do not typically lead to up and down games. Everyone seems to want to limit possessions and slug it out which from a coaching perspective probably makes sense but from a fan POV it's not as fun when KU has a team that is best when it's able to push in transition and get the pace of play to their liking. The counter to that is KU has to force their style on opponents rather then letting teams dictate how the game gets played. So far its been a mixed bag in conf play.
I also agree about the offense. Seems like injuries have prevented this team from practicing the way Self may want them too. I want to see this team focus more on attacking downhill as I think sometimes we just tend to pass it around the perimeter looking for the angles and the defensive rotations. I think our guards can do a better job getting a foot in the lane and reading how the defense responds. We tend to get easier baskets or get open perimeter shots when we get our guards in the paint area. We have seen a lot more wing post ups this season whether it's och or someone. Recently Self has started running Dave in more pick and roll sets instead of iso block stuff and that's something I believe can have a positive impact. I wouldn't be surprised if Self is saving some stuff for Baylor etc so there's some element of surprise in the film teams get.
Yeah I have seen the Twitter posts from said insider. No doubt this person does get some information but tends to go without verifying it in other cases before putting it on blast. I'm certainly not naive to think there's "nothing" going on because otherwise there wouldn't be something to talk about. Hopefully it was overblown and the issue is more that Self is probably upset about how the information is being put out there since he tends to keep these kinds of things behind closed doors. It's a situation I hope is just smoke and no fire
