I think you can lump the whole bench into it
4 missed freebies killing us
Oh man kj is such a project shooting
Seems completely lost at this level
Brutal
Not a good foul there
Wow furphy move ur feet man
Kev flirting with triple double. Hunter with 20 and 16
@approxinfinity said in What to Expect at the Champions Classic?:
We won those 4 :)
Great call. What else you got, PowerBall #'s?
Alright alright kev
Zero bench points. Yikes
Kev
Nice sequence there
Nice
Lol another phantom one
His d has been very concerning
Old kev back
Ok UK ref
Omg elmarko
Oh my KJ. Thats awful
Can't miss layups
Good one. We know self has sets and perhaps they aren't ready to show them this early. Gotta start playing through him, Kentucky had no issue playing to their strengths
I mean his height advantage is significant enough and we didn't see it used well, lots of turnovers forcing it in. Offensively we played pretty poorly and that led to a lot of easy looks on their end. I would like to see them play through the guy that's so hyped up
They sent 3 or 4 at Hunter every time the ball was thrown his way. At some point you gotta adjust and start sending cutters or run the sets that set up lobs or inside position where you get the weakside help out the lane. Need to make Hunter either the guy or the guy getting someone an open look.
Big play there to end the half
Getting excellent play out of nick
Not a well officiated game so far
Guess he forgot he could, you know, dribble
Oh boy parker
As self feared, athletic teams are going to hurt this squad
Kev that shot looks real bad tonight, real bad
4 pt swing. Bullcrap
Unbelievable call
I hope they don't keep this momentum going. Not playing with the kind of fluidity the last 6 or so minutes. Fouls are mounting and we need someone to step up
Wow kev that's a bad shot
Harris needs to step up on defense. He was shook
Wow that's some pathetic ball
Nice finish by kev. In the big 12 on the road they will call that a charge.
Wow that's slop
Nice start. Rebounding well. Elmarko gotta make those looks
Let's get it
Duke refs shine bright like a diamond
KU is currently favored by 4.5.
I don't know how much tightening of the bench Self will do since he only has 9 bodies to begin with it. I think everyone will continue to get opportunities until we hit conference time and then Self will do what he normally does which is play 6/7 majority of minutes. Furphy has been such a wildcard though in a positive way. Looking like a starter but we will see how he handles athletes and scouting.
His passing certainly flashed tonight. Need his trajectory to keep moving forward because he's a heck of a talent if he figures it out.
Nice half there. Good effort out there
Furphy with a lot of shades of dick
Sky is falling
Agree. Hopefully we can close the deal and work out his logistics
If it's true he's exploring joining the team for the 2nd semester as well. Things to work out but I'd say it's heating up
Yeah the missed dunk was odd for sure, Game 1 jitters perhaps. Need him to be consistent finishing down low which his numbers suggest he will, he shot 62% from the floor last year.
