Wrong guys with the ball.
Lot of bright spots guys.
GD doesn't rest
SWEET!
Get the ball to Juan.
They avg about 90 pts I think.
Is Grady one big bruise? He falls down on drives a bunch.
Grady did the Remy. Nice.
In the game before this one we had a several minute scoring dead spot and most of the second half.
In the Duke game we had dead spells in the middle of both halves.
We will see some games later when we will say the team finally played their best game just like late last year when we started to really believe we could go to a Final Four.
Exactly!
Watched the game at midnight. Holy cow don't know where to start.
We have guys who really know the game and can flat out ball. McCullers was so valuable. KJ what can you say other than he is one tough ass playerand put the ball in the hole. Udeh and Zuby made their mark in a big way. We have depth!!
DuJuan was better than any Duke guard on both ends, great game!
Grady is a freak!! Highlight reel plays and Jay Bilas will realize that he is a terror on defense too.
This was J Will's best game I think. All American stuff. What can ya say?
The whole team was focused and poised. So Impressive.
Duke played like punks and the refs made them pay. You could see the plan was to rough our guys up and beat us down with their length and depth. That last foul on J Will made my blood boil. But who was tougher? Yeah eff you Dook.
Juan will get that sweeping layup going on as the season progresses. He and Bobby will be fine.
Zuby has 10 boards in ten minutes of play and was able to hold his position doing it. We need a dog down low!
You're welcome sir.
The Harlem Globetrotters were good on carriers but you are right about real games.
Zuby's rebounding hawkishness has me thinking hmmmmmmm.
When many were, and rightly so, admiring the spark and play of Bobby I didn't think it was threatening for Juan. We heard stories about Bobby last spring, from the coaches, that kept telling us how special Pettiford was looking during practice. I was hoping to see what the big deal was all about. I am glad to report the coaches were right. Lol. His ability to finish on drives was just great and assists everywhere picked up the team energy. When he subs there won't be any warm up delay because he just goes into action immediately. Yes!!!
Juan makes me feel warm and safe both on offense and defense. He's not going anywhere soon.
When the team was being special in the first half everyone was involved. When it got sloppy in the second half everyone was involved also. We are just two games in. We don't know what's up yet!
Hawks win..... Nuff said.
Their center needs to be tossed.
Lol
Grady with the El Kabong.
Now that is sweet.
I like the aggression.
His instincts are good but Bill in exile will want more than that.
Our Farmer is a team player.
Zack with the Mitch L do.
We are quick.
@BeddieKU23
He's a spark looking for a fire.
Not on thread but my great nephew is AA running back for SDSU. Great kid.
Settle down now.
Hi friends!
Cleverly named thread. It's nice to see Christian getting PT for the Thunder and there is an Och sighting from time to time and Kelly Oubre is a star!
I have not laid eyes on this version of KU BB so it's excitement time for this currently Covidized fan. I'm hoping to see what all the talk about Bobby Pettiford at the end of last season is about.
Yeah me too.
Thanks again.
Best team in the country. Every stinking team we beat was on a winning streak but that streak ended just like we had over the years. We will always remember the Legendary Remy. And this title gives me the best feeling. Coach Self said he fell more connected to this team than any other. Next year will be very interesting and I hope we get to see Zach flourish and watch KJ become the shut down defender and the El Kabonging heir. BobbyP has received accolades from Self just like JWil did or pretty close anyway. I can see us losing seven players. Ochai, Dave, Mitch, Remy, JCL, Christian and Jalen. In the last mock draft I saw before the title game Och #13 and CB #33. It will take a great coaching staff to get us ready for a repeat run. What will the starting five look like? IDK but we may go seven + deep.
Hubert Davis said he was told KU was hard to defend because you can defend some but you need to stop them all and that's not gonna happen. Self thought five minutes into the second half there was no way we could defend like this for the rest of the game but we did. I think it was Barkley who said Kansas was the only team who could have won like we did because every player hit big shots. Jalen, Remy, Och, Christian and Dave just took turns keeping us in it until it was all over. Juan and Och had 5 TO's and everyone else three total but Juan had three steals and Och had one. NC got numerous second or third chance shots but were guarded and blocked just enough to limit their success. Bacot and Davis had six offensive rebounds each but were just a combined 8 out of 30 from the floor. We won this puppy because we were clearly the better team and came up clutch over and over. We gave them a huge gift and then took it back.
What a team effort. 5 guys in double figures.
What a comeback against a hard ass team effort.
Lol
Was that tipped?
Wheres your puppy?
REMY and Dave
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lot of time. No initial turn and shoot please.
Not OT.
Foul on the inbound only.
No no no!
Oh Fuck!
Who's ball?
We did it. They dit it. Largest deficit win in tourney history!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Another fuck up why did we stop?
Two empty possessions in a row. Come on dont blow it win it.
Yeah.
The guy got gassed and stop the game?
