Get Svi out of there.

@jayballer54 JB nobody said anything about your education or spelling or grammar or whatever on this thread. You took 4 letters and went apesh-- on @JayHawkFanToo . One thing I've learned about forums is you gotta give people a chance and take them at face value. Even if you think they're insinuating something, face value works better because your audience isn't just them, it's everyone else. Look, @JayHawkFanToo can sometimes drive me nutty too especially when politics come up, but at the end of the day you gotta pick your battles. This one felt like you had a headful of steam coming into the thread. It seems to be over, but for future threads do you mind calming down a little man?
@nuleafjhawk screw you dude. you ruined it for all of us!
@drgnslayr @nuleafjhawk alright which one of you guys didn't do your ritual today?
Lead cut to 2 with 2 min left
As an aside good for Steve Prohm. Huge win. they may get their chance to do this in the tournament. Definitely helps their resume.
Baylor is catching up. Down 7 with 4:43 to go
@KirkIsMyHinrich school record? Wow.
@cragarhawk yeah man. Never have I been so proud after a loss as after that final. We just ran out of time. Had them on the ropes. If we had BMac and Jamari I think we win that one.
@HawkChamp 2011-2012? You talking about the short-handed team that was tough as nails that took us to the finals and almost beat a loaded Kentucky team?
@autohawk you know that Kentucky in 2012 is the only team with less than 3 losses to win a championship in the last 17 years?
@BShark later man! Have fun
@HawkChamp incapable of making good decisions? Come on man. Hope you mean just today.
Well they were 9 of 27 last time from 3, this time 18 of 34. It wasn't the interior d that sucked. That's good.
@HawkChamp well didn't we have over 50 at half? At least we didn't suck for a whole game.
@cragarhawk agree. And those tough entry passed to LL into 2 defenders were really bad.
@HawkChamp hey I'll still take our guys over anyone if I had to bet money in March. 20 wins 3 losses is pretty good. It was uninspired by coach and by players too. I'm sure they'll say the same.
@DCHawker looked like a variation on chop called for Svi and he lined up too far behind arc.
@BShark well after 2 top 4 wins. It makes sense that we had a down game. And it took some incredible 3 ball shooting for them to do it
Wellp.
Mason Coast to Coast ....
Bill thanks you for the timeout.
Nice Svi
Man. I love the forced shot clock violations
@DCHawker lol. Just felt like being contrary.
I'm feeling Devonte.
@Crimsonorblue22 that and one for Frank earlier was pretty friendly :smile:
@DCHawker but I like the confidence from Svi.
Don't kill Josh, Burton!
My second guess for score would be:
@jayballer54 Well, first game: !Screenshot 2017-02-04 07.52.08.png ↗
I dont expect 14 from Lucas. Expectation: - 4
Frank... About right. Expectation: +0
Devonte - heating up. Let's go: +6
Svi ... Let's go -3
JJ. Been on fire, lightswitch is on. Expectation : +10
Bragg/Coleby. Losing these points, Coleby will get the minutes and rebs but not much O. Expectation: -8
Lagerald. I expect a bounce back game but not this kind of efficiency. Expectation +0
Wow, we only shot 5 free throws in first game? That should well go up, but offensively we were very efficient first go around, so I'll just take that as padding why the 78 feels safe.
76 - 4 + 0 + 6 - 3 + 10 - 8 + 0 = 78
Iowa State ...
9 of 27 seems about right for perimeter. Means they were 19 of 36 inside. I think we got some run against big teams the last couple games and figured some stuff out, Let's make that 16 of 35 inside, with a couple extra TOs and denied entry passes. 7 of 10 on free throws seems right.
So I'll go: KU 78-66 ISU
@Crimsonorblue22 thanks. miss me some Perry. Hope we get to see him courtside come tourney time a la JuJu in 2008.
@bskeet @ParisHawk amen, both of you.
The constant negative commentary about these events during our games plus the horror movies being advertised during commercial breaks have given me 2 new reasons to dislike ESPN this year.
So I don't think not valuing someone's stuff is inhuman. It's immature, maybe. But it's a perfect way to get back at someone. Who knows why it was done? We don't. Nobody was endangered. Nobody was hurt. In my opinion this is foremost a moral matter, and it should not be a legal one, and besides not knowing who did what, we don't know enough of the facts to determine to what extent it was justified.
I'm bothered by a fear I have that people have replaced morals with legality and believe that disobeying laws makes someone bad, while doing only legal things makes someone good.
I was a teenager in the 90s. And in my circle, we had a few circumstances where things like this happened. people got their houses egged for dating other people's ex girlfriends, houses got TP'd for people being a-holes, an ex girlfriend smashed her ex boyfriends headlights because some things he said to her that made her feel bad. One friend smashed another's window in response to a somewhat accidental head injury. While at the time it sucked, people dealt with each of these circumstances and moved on. None of this was a police matter. I don't think any of it needed to be or should have been.
In regards to what you said @Kcmatt7, you said you wouldn't be able to drive with $2k damage... Well you would if it was a keyed car. You would just be driving a keyed car! And that's what I would have done. Doesnt mean I'd be happy about it. But even if he did it, which we don't know, Josh didn't screw up her ability to succeed, or make money. The car isn't ruined. It's just ugly.
@Kcmatt7 lol world peace is still achievable!
@elpoyo I hope so. Either way, I'm happy he's a Jayhawk and that we get to watch him play chess twice a week.
@tis4tim right there with you man. Josh truly is special and a joy to watch. I wish there was some other way beside injury we would stay another year but there is not. Just have to savor these amazing moments with the rewind button. I'm going to watch the game again tonight and take a look at that block you mentioned
@JayHawkFanToo I thought the UK win was more satisfying. We beat a good team in their building. A blue blood team that competes with us for the hearts and minds of top recruits, the media, and the nation. No doubt this win over Baylor is huge and when we hold B12 trophy #13, we will look back at this one. But I felt that UK victory was one of the best KU wins in recent memory. As much as Baylor is a good team this year, I fully expected to punk Drew in the second half. The foul disparity makes it easy for Fran and like-minded trolls to discredit this win. Nobody in the nation can say we didn't make a statement beating UK at Rupp.
Josh is more exciting to watch than Embiid was at Kansas. I did not think I'd be saying that any time soon after Embiid.
Josh has a will to win. I have a feeling that once someone tracks his +/- when on court it's going to be unreal.
@truehawk93 so i'm confused by what they said about longest front court in the nation... they counted wainright as front court. Isn't SF considered backcourt?
@wissox ESPN front page is now us.
ICE
@Svi totally... redeemed.. yourself!
awwwwwww fffffff
Come on Josh, know your audience.
Nice Landen! Big buckets.
Oh holy crap... 2 banked 3's. GMAFB!
