Don't need that Remy

If Dave doesn't play anymore today we might come back

Honestly think our peak might involve going small and playing KJ at the 5. He's the only big that can move well and defend

Just get Dave off the court and play Wilson at the 5

Dave did get pushed a little and he tripped mostly because he was off balance. Which brings me to my next point. Dave is never on balance

As hard as it is for us to score, we can't be giving up wide open lay-ups like that and expect to win

Braun you're wide open. Shoot that

Is it free-throws if you aren't in control of the ball? I guess so

@KirkIsMyHinrich I think you’re onto something but if that’s the case Jalen needs to learn how to pass

I'll settle for better defense.

Och can't be the guy because can't create his own shot off the dribble. The closest thing we have to that guy is Remy or Jalen

We make shots harder than they need to be. Just shoot the shot that they give you. Stop doing stupid turnaround fadeaways.

Also, Dave needs to stop wildly flailing at every shot attempt when he tries to block a shot from the weak side. One, he never blocks the shot anyway. And two, in the time that it takes him to recover, the other team has time to offensive rebound, score, go sit on the bench, and drink some water. Just contest and stay on balance if you're going to help from the weak side. This has been pissing me off all season.

I watch Joel Embiid a lot, and often times he doesn't even contest shots. He concedes the difficult lay-up attempt and goes to box someone out. And he's Joel Embiid. I wish Dave would do more of that. Especially since we are getting out-rebounded.

@approxinfinity said in Red Raiders:

I fell asleep. Can someone tell me what’s up with Dave?

He's Dave

That was not a foul on remy, that was an offensive foul

Obvious hook

How do you fall down and then scream like that? lol

And 1 for Jalen as he was grabbed

We need to understand that we're playing against Duke and that they are going to shamelessly take charges all game. And since they are at home, they are going to get those calls.

@jayballer67 Trying to collapse the defense and hit Ochai

@benshawks08 said in Red Raiders:

Those charges are shit calls.

That guy was set , set , set, what the fricken hell are you doing leaving your feet on a drive Remy holy shit

He was set when he took the charge, but not before Remy jumped. You have to be set before the player jumps otherwise it's not supposed to be a charge. That's a call Tech is going to get everytime at home though

What kind of stupid help was that

Texas only scored 51 on OSU today. Makes me feel better about the 74 we had. Actually kind of incredible that we had 74 with that 0-20 stretch.

@RockChalkinTexas said in Red Raiders:

KSUcks lost🙌

So did Texas

Finish Dave jesus

In the time it takes for Dave to jump twice, I think Wiggins could jump about 6 or 7 times.

Och

Braun needs to get his head in the game. Missed an easy lay-up, made a bad pass, and just got called for a charge. Charge might have been a bad call, but still.

Tech is going to get every call today. We just have to play through it

Really good catch and finish from Wilson. That pass was questionable

Wilson obviously fouled. Come on

Gotta make that Braun

@BShark said in Non-KU Games:

McNeill is cooking KSU lmaooooo

CBB Klay Thompson

Okay. Alright I'm going to go make an animal sacrifice before the game starts then. brb

@BShark Wait what? Is Remy even playing today?

@BShark They always are. Devonte Graham getting a foul for diving and getting to the ball first still pisses me off.

Nate Oats are you okay?

This box score is cursed. Ew

Maybe if Nova loses again we can put them back in the top 10 @Kcmatt7 @KirkIsMyHinrich

Quality Loss.

Also, West Virginia down 13 at half now up 3 on KState. Now it's tied again

Road games in college are hard and Tech is decent. No line really offends me tbh

No but I have kirkismyhinrich premium and I'd say we should be about a 7 or 8 point favorite today

@MNJayhawk said in Red Raiders:

@rockchalkjayhawk I'll be streaming one and watching one on the big screen and yelling at both, no doubt!

I’m still debating which one gets the big screen

KU always. Broncos might just not give a single fuck today tbh

The offense hasn't cared all year. Why would they start today?

KU always takes priority

Let's go Okie Lite

So fun to read Kentucky forums after they lose.

It's been ugly because Oklahoma St is allowed to foul with impunity

Ochai got fouled again but whatever

What was the line for this game?

Road wins in the B12 and especially at OSU. I don't care how we do it as long as we win.

And congrats, @BShark, I don't have to set fire to your property.

Pass the ball to Dave instead, Ochai

That foul was like not controversial at all too.

Okay Dave.

@BShark said in Okay St chat:

Where was the foul on that last play?

It's 7-1 fouls in the 2nd half. Road games

@DanR said in Okay St chat:

Still way too much passing around the perimeter. If this is what what not playing through the 5 looks like, I'd rather see them feed the post a bit. One thing Dave does well is pass out of double teams

In theory, the passing around the perimeter should set up the post feed, but the perimeter passing is slow, clunky, and inaccurate so it doesn't really.
