Not going to lie… wish kj was available for a spark right now
We miss KJ from about 10 minutes, I pray he doesn’t come back playing 30 a game again
Have no issue with 25+- minutes from each of KJ, Flory and Hunter.
It seems that all Griffen can do is catch and shoot, and if he isn't doing that well, ....
Good response after getting down, but we need something, anything from the bench. 3 pts on 1-7 shooting...
@DCHawker said in Feeling the Fieldhouse magic?:
17 - 2 run - hard to fathom...
Make that a 19-2 run....
17 - 2 run - hard to fathom...
13-0 run...
We were above 50% shooting and 5-11 from 3 at one point. Now 41% and 5-17...
Lucky follow by Flory immediately at the start of the half and WTF the next 5 minutes...
@SlimShaddy54 said in Feeling the Fieldhouse magic?:
@DCHawker No Flory made our only bucket in this half -- Houston on a 11-2 run
0-7 since the Flory bucket...
@approxinfinity said in Feeling the Fieldhouse magic?:
This is what storr is supposed to be for.
Let him get in and get us one.
Which he was unable to do in the first half - from the field or FT line...
9-0 run by Cougars while we've gone 0-7...
WTF
38 point 1st half against a good defense - need to keep up the intensity - and make some g-d d--n FTs...
Flory is bringing the ball down rather than going straight up...
UH is 6-21 from the field and 1-9 from 3. We should be up by more...
So far, Storr is back to form - that is, everything before the last game...
17 TOs - 5 by Juan...
But it was really bad pass down the court - clock is your friend. Just burn time...

Storr's the leading scorer for KU now amd KU has 5 in double figures.
You love to see it
Dickinson actually leading scorer, Storr second...
@StLJhawk said in Big Ern’s Frogs meet The Bidunga Bunch — Game Thread:
I wish we would get a loose ball now and then
But that would necessitate having players who actually want it more than the other team...

What time is that USMNT game again?
They on tonight? Better DVR that!
Uh, I think he means switching as soon as it starts, and I agree....
And Houston up 58-21 over Utah early in the 2nd half...
TCU on an 88 point pace...
There is a reason that Storr has played for 24 different teams in the past 3 years....
This against a 10-7 team...

Can we trade Storr?
Does somebody want him???
@MR11 said in Mythbusters: Bill Self, minutes, and March:
@benshawks08 "there is a reason Hunter has averaged a double double his entire career and never won any game of significance." I want to note Hunter has gone to the E8 with Michigan and won the B10 regular season that year. Not a world beating achievement, but I think it qualifies as wins with some significance.
Not that I disagree with the spirit of your assessment, but just don't want to see the hate go too far.
Both right? Yes, Michigan had a good team his freshman year - only lost 5 games (abbreviated schedule) and went to the E8. But the next two years, when he put up bigger numbers, they lost 15 and 16 games. Sweet 16 one year and NIT the other. Think it is fair to say at this point given the last 3-1/2 years that Dickinson is a solid, mostly consistent, scorer and rebounder, but hard to say that he makes the team and players around him better...And most of his stats are down across the board this year.
@KirkIsMyHinrich said in KState game thread:
AJ with 17 minutes, Rylan with 12 minutes and no shot attempts. Doesn't make a lot of sense.
I wasn't able to watch the game, so don't know how they looked on the court, but the combined stat line is awful. As you note, 29 minutes combined. Basically a full game. 7 points. 6 shot attempts, all Storr. 2 rebounds (zero defensive). 1 assist.
@BeddieKU23 said in Looking back at Hilton:
KU now dead last in free throw attempts in all of college ball
A remarkable (remarkably sad) stat. We don't have a player averaging more than 2 FTAs pg other than Dickinson, and he less well less than 3. The past two years, McCullar and Wilson averaged about 6 trips to the line per game. Same with Dotson, Graham and even Lawson. Mason averaged about 7 his senior year. The title team had 4 players averaging 3-5 FTAs per game.
We're on a pace for about ~400 team FTAs. The title team had about 660. The 15-16 team had 762.
Inexplicable, but this team just plays soft...
Apart from all of the obvious issues on the offensive end, what happened to the defense??? More than 5 minutes into the 2nd half, we had held them to 2 pts and had closed the deficit to 3. They still had only 8 pts in the half almost 9 minutes in - although the gap was now 5 instead of 3 because we couldn't score. After that, they seemed to score at will - another 26 points in just over 10 minutes....
Actually have more FGs and FG%, but huge difference at the FT line and getting beat on the boards...
Bilas right - we have gotten beat to most of the loose balls...
9 point game - 9 point difference at the FT line...
Juan makes his FTs and this game is tied....
Hunt and KJ 4-15...
We're 2-5 at the "charity" stripe...
Weird that Juan and Griffen are our second leading scorers at this point...
16 TOs - incredible...
ISU only scored 2 in 4+ minutes, so we are on same 2nd have defensive pace as last two games!
We can't get into any kind of offensive set...
They've out shot us, out rebounded us, and out hustled us. Need to do better on both ends...
We are getting almost nothing in the paint...
We are having a lot of trouble even trying to get into the offense...
What a weak-ass block out attempt by KJ...
HCBS face in hands says it all...
Lazy effort by Griffen on that loose ball...
Horrible pass - 8th TO...
Apart from the bad TOs, they are moving the ball a lot better and getting much better looks...
@dylans said in Looking forward to Hilton:
Nice effort KJ!
Agreed, but he still leans away from contact every time rather than into it...
Interesting that they have already subbed and we haven't. They are short-handed - we should play 9 and push the pace all game...
