@Crimsonorblue22 yeah. Hank Gathers...after he died, their NCAA performance that year:

First Round New Mexico State W 111-92

Second Round Alabama W 149-115

Sweet Sixteen Alabama W 62-60

Elite Eight UNLV L 101–131

Some crazy offense played in that time period.

@Crimsonorblue22 The way they were shooting/playing reminded me of Loyola Marymount 89/90 if they had been hitting a better %:

The 1990 squad (Loyola-Marymount) was also the highest scoring team in NCAA Division I history with an average of 139 points per game.[2]

ISUshooting 50% from the field

Chatting KU Baylor hoops here • Jan 03, 2016 01:12 AM

OU @ 13:50 mark in the 2nd half has taken 23 3 pointers. Only hitting 30% and down 1. ISU only shot 11 3pt's @ 45%.

Chatting KU Baylor hoops here • Jan 03, 2016 01:05 AM

@DinarHawk Not like I was watching in the first half of the OU/ISUgame. These teams were jacking up the first available open or semi-open look. Then it comes down to whether they are connecting or not.

Don't get me wrong, I think we can play like this, we just gotta be ready.

C5 Comp:

Mick - 2/3 & 3/4 for 7 points 6 RB, 1 Asst, 1 Steal, 3 Blks. 1 TO, 4 PF

Bragg-2/4 & 1/2 for 6 points, 3 RB, 0 Asst, 0 Steal, 0 blks, 0 TO, 1 PF

Diallo-2/4 & 0/0 for 4 points, 2 RB, 0 asst. 0 Steal, 1 Blk, 0 TO, 1 PF

Lucas-1/1 &0/0 for 2 points, 2 RB, 0 asst, 1 steal, 0 blk. 2 TO, 2 PF

JTray-0/0 &0/0 for 0 points, 0 RB, 2 asst. 0 steal, 1 blk, 0 TO. 4 PF

There folks should be your big man rotation for now with exceptions for specific matchups or until #2/#3 options begin to grow towards their ceilings.

Niang running point, bringing the ball up

Chatting KU Baylor hoops here • Jan 03, 2016 12:34 AM

@cragarhawk I believe someone pushed us early in the year....but we've been better since then, but this has been relentless in this game.

I think I saw the shot clock hit 10 once.

Chatting KU Baylor hoops here • Jan 03, 2016 12:33 AM

@KUSTEVE If we're ready for it. They're playing faster than us though, pushing at nearly every opportunity.

Chatting KU Baylor hoops here • Jan 03, 2016 12:29 AM

OU-ISU game reminds me of the Loyola Marymount, OU, UNLV (?) offenses of the late 80's.

Chatting KU Baylor hoops here • Jan 03, 2016 12:27 AM

@KUSTEVE This is run and gun like nobody's business...

We're going to have to be back on defense or they'll outrun us.

Chatting KU Baylor hoops here • Jan 03, 2016 12:19 AM

This OU-ISU game seems like the OU style of play under Tubbs back in the run and gun period.

Chatting KU Baylor hoops here • Jan 03, 2016 12:14 AM

@wissoxfan83 I was on campus from 82-86 as a student. BBall wasn't gaining momentum until 85 or 86 under Brown...or I was just out of touch.

I think Late Night started around that time as a marketing tool to gain more interest.

'86 it was rocking though, a dream slightly deferred until '88.

C5 vs Rico Gathers • Jan 03, 2016 12:09 AM

@pa_grape I'm guessing Gathers is more athletic than Ndiaye and not as good a match up for LL

Chatting KU Baylor hoops here • Jan 03, 2016 12:00 AM

58% 3 pt shooting tonight. Looked like we'd dropped from 3rd nationally to 4th with the last couple games, but tonight should have helped.

Chatting KU Baylor hoops here • Jan 02, 2016 11:58 PM

@KUSTEVE yes. I'd like to see the stats on time BU has played M2M. I'll bet today's game was an outlier for them!

3 Pt shooting. Not fools gold.

Texas vs Texas tech • Jan 02, 2016 11:56 PM

@Lulufulu I thought the same as I watched the tail end of that game.

Chatting KU Baylor hoops here • Jan 02, 2016 11:37 PM

@KUSTEVE We shot great, but when you get to 100 points, you're playing fast. I think that is what so many of us were worried about, that Self would try to push us into back to the basket, high - low offense when we don't have the personnel down low to execute in that style.

19 3 pt's played to our strength and it helped that we hit them. Hit a couple late of course, but, from what I saw (thanks CBS) we destroyed their zone with our ball movement and outside shooting. Think we were at 75% 3 pt shooting while they were in the zone. That played to our strength. What I couldn't tell (thanks CBS) was if it was due to inside-out or some other form of ball movement that got us there.

I like that he had Mickelson back in there late in the 2nd and we seemed to flow again a little smoother. Then mop up with an incredible bench of Diallo/Bragg/Vick.

Chatting KU Baylor hoops here • Jan 02, 2016 11:29 PM

@KUSTEVE If you don't have a detractor you're either dead or not doing anything.

Chatting KU Baylor hoops here • Jan 02, 2016 11:18 PM

11/19 from 3 pt %

better than 53.7% FG

Chatting KU Baylor hoops here • Jan 02, 2016 11:18 PM

@KUSTEVE which was maybe one person.

Chatting KU Baylor hoops here • Jan 02, 2016 11:14 PM

BENCH at end of game...Diallo, Bragg, Vick

STRONG

@wissoxfan83 Coached by Drew

Chatting KU Baylor hoops here • Jan 02, 2016 11:11 PM

@HawkInMizery yes

Chatting KU Baylor hoops here • Jan 02, 2016 11:08 PM

Liking Greene's play, can we leave leave the complaints about defense behind?

Realize there will still be gaps and miscues but...

Chatting KU Baylor hoops here • Jan 02, 2016 11:06 PM

89 points with 3 minutes left...gotta love that.

Chatting KU Baylor hoops here • Jan 02, 2016 11:06 PM

Ellis/Mickelson 6 RB each

Then Mason with 5, gotta love that.

Chatting KU Baylor hoops here • Jan 02, 2016 11:04 PM

Seldon 24

Ellis 17

Graham 12

Mason 11

Mickelson/Greene 7

Chatting KU Baylor hoops here • Jan 02, 2016 11:02 PM

We're shooting better from 3 than from the field in general.

BG has made one 3 since the Montana game.

Seems to be passing up the 3 for drives more.

But there you go!

Chatting KU Baylor hoops here • Jan 02, 2016 10:59 PM

BG swatted at the ball, but seemed to miss everything but was called.

Traylor measured him.

Chatting KU Baylor hoops here • Jan 02, 2016 10:57 PM

I'm fine with playing lots of people today. rest up and get ready for OU on Monday!

Hunter playing great. Glad Self is finally playing him.

He still makes mistakes here and there, but things seem to happen when he's in.

Chatting KU Baylor hoops here • Jan 02, 2016 10:54 PM

Didn't see the repay...but live, looked like a block by HM there.

Chatting KU Baylor hoops here • Jan 02, 2016 10:53 PM

@DCHawker He plays weak on D often.

Chatting KU Baylor hoops here • Jan 02, 2016 10:47 PM

Mickelson tip

Chatting KU Baylor hoops here • Jan 02, 2016 10:47 PM

So Traylor / Lucas in now...the offense is one of 5 it seems. Is that what Bill wants? Is that due to the presence we have in the middle?

Chatting KU Baylor hoops here • Jan 02, 2016 10:45 PM

BU played any zone this half?

Chatting KU Baylor hoops here • Jan 02, 2016 10:42 PM

BU with a +3 edge on O RB's as well.

Chatting KU Baylor hoops here • Jan 02, 2016 10:42 PM

@tundrahok ESPN does too now.

Chatting KU Baylor hoops here • Jan 02, 2016 10:36 PM

Mason!

Chatting KU Baylor hoops here • Jan 02, 2016 10:20 PM

Perry/Hunter inside good ball movement on the interior.

BU in man out of the gate in the 2nd.

Chatting KU Baylor hoops here • Jan 02, 2016 10:13 PM

@DinarHawk One thing I'm not sure of is the BU change from zone to man defense as well.

Chatting KU Baylor hoops here • Jan 02, 2016 10:02 PM

Finally a good close out to a half.

Way to go Devonte Graham!

Chatting KU Baylor hoops here • Jan 02, 2016 10:01 PM

All our stats are moving towards the mean with the lineups playing late in the 1st and now that Baylor has changed to a man defense.
