@Crimsonorblue22 Think so...put his hands on the guy as he went through the lane

KU away at Lizard Lair Game Thread • Dec 31, 2016 02:29 AM

Lazy foul there by JJ.

KU away at Lizard Lair Game Thread • Dec 31, 2016 02:27 AM

That was nice.

Got some folks in the crowd?

KU away at Lizard Lair Game Thread • Dec 31, 2016 02:24 AM

We have 1 more RB than them! For all that's doing for us.

KU away at Lizard Lair Game Thread • Dec 31, 2016 02:22 AM

Maybe the lid is coming off...but was never on for them.

KU away at Lizard Lair Game Thread • Dec 31, 2016 02:20 AM

Another circus layup but it's going in!

KU away at Lizard Lair Game Thread • Dec 31, 2016 02:19 AM

Bragg is huslting in there. Can't put the ball in the hole but he's working.

The letter: Y

KU away at Lizard Lair Game Thread • Dec 31, 2016 02:15 AM

Turned a turnover into a turnover and then a foul

@Texas-Hawk-10 I can only hope so. Heard once:

Practice doesn't make perfect. Practice makes permanent.

Flipping a switch as a strategy is an iffy strategy. I should say counting on it is. I'd agree that sustaining effort to 100%, 100% of the time isn't feasible in most circumstances.

Consistency: Josh vs Perry • Dec 30, 2016 02:15 PM

@drgnslayr great post. The only disagreement is in the competitive tenacity summary. I believe both have that. Josh's athleticism is what I think separates them. But, I'll leave open if Josh does edge Perry in that characteristic...need a bigger sample size.

@Texas-Hawk-10 flipping a switch often turns into a flippin' loss in the tournament. There you start having to overcome inconsistency in refereeing too.

Interesting.

Let's build a chip on our shoulder. Wonder if U.A's injury plays into the calculation.

Nice shot

@HighEliteMajor welcome back! You've provoked @jaybate-1.0 into his epic-length posts with a simple provocative question. You have been missed on the site.

@RockChalkinTexas so sorry for your loss. Prayers

Injured Hawks vs Runnin Rebs Game Thread • Dec 23, 2016 03:32 AM

Rough rim for us this game in many ways.

UNLV game • Dec 23, 2016 02:49 AM

Old Mason on previous break. Should have passed back early

UNLV game • Dec 23, 2016 02:35 AM

Josh doing lots of dirty work and picking up the reward too.

UNLV game • Dec 23, 2016 02:33 AM

Liked the Svi 3 off the dribble.

UNLV game • Dec 23, 2016 02:04 AM

@DCHawker hoping for a fast OT!

UNLV game • Dec 23, 2016 02:01 AM

Overtime. What happens now to KU game ?

KU vs those Wildcats from North Carolina • Dec 18, 2016 12:45 AM

@BShark that hurt

KU vs those Wildcats from North Carolina • Dec 18, 2016 12:24 AM

What was up with Lightfoot playing already

EX-3PT UPDATE • Dec 14, 2016 10:59 AM

@ralster 20 point lead seems excessive if that is truly the bar.

Doke flexible • Dec 14, 2016 02:39 AM

@mayjay but don't underestimate a yoga class for flexibility and good looking women in yoga pants.

EX-3PT UPDATE • Dec 14, 2016 02:34 AM

@drgnslayr yep, no way Frank should have been on the court at the end of the NU game.

Doke flexible • Dec 14, 2016 01:55 AM

That's the "frog" pose in yoga. It'll stretch your hips.

Reality starting to set • Dec 09, 2016 12:38 AM

@wrwlumpy Self is too stuck in his ways.

Feel more at home now.

Oh wait, you said you didn't miss it.

I actually do miss more technical breakdowns of strategy, tactics, and players games that the turmoil generated last year.

How Important really? • Dec 06, 2016 02:41 PM

How does "Not a 1 seed" champion stack up statistically with 1 seed champions?

In modern era we're 1 &1 as far as I see it. What?

A 6-seed and a 1-seed.

Hung jury

Same old Dirty laundry • Dec 04, 2016 08:58 PM

@jaybate-1.0 I actually think @DoubleDD set up that honey trap just to catch you. And he did. :-)

Same old Dirty laundry • Dec 04, 2016 08:56 PM

@jaybate-1.0 I know what you meant and really was just tweaking your nose!

However, I do think you sometimes ascribe too much advanced planning/scheming and control to Self i.e. To quote DD: "if anything happens on the court then it was by design of the coach".

I will grant you that Self does adjust and try to find ways to play the hand he's dealt and even beyond that analogy, works to influence the hand he's dealt as every coach should.

In particular, I don't ascribe our lack of inside game and the 4-1 line up as part a multi year grand master plan to incrementally reduce the strength of our bigs so he could move to a 4 man perimeter dominated game. Your analysis often lends itself to ascribing this level of control and planning to him as I read you.

Other than that, I enjoy your analysis and your strategy discussions. I see it as innovation, often reluctantly pursued versus master-planned.

@DoubleDD

so Self fouled Travis

Self countered with long treys.

I rechecked the stat sheet, didn't see any Self fouls or made 3's.

Just linked in. We're up 4. Playing good?

We were playing great until Josh and Doke went out and Lucas and Bragg went in.

And extended lead when starters back on floor

Bad foul by Landen

KU vs Dawgs Round 2 Game Thread • Nov 26, 2016 01:14 AM

Refs not quite the quick whistle we've grown used to.

KU vs Dawgs Round 2 Game Thread • Nov 26, 2016 12:39 AM

Section 11

See you in the Field House.

KU/GEORGIA GAME CHAT • Nov 23, 2016 05:16 AM

3pt shooting as a team.

Still dismal.

KU/GEORGIA GAME CHAT • Nov 23, 2016 05:13 AM

Jackson 11 RB

Vick. 8 RB

Mason only 5.

Bigs...not even part of discussion.

I know this is not an original thought, but this team could be scary good if it ever got healthy.

Or got an inside game

Or learned to play as a team.
