@approxinfinity said in Must win game tonight:
Has Enaruna played D tonight? I've only focused on the offensive end w/ him.
lol - - not sure if he has or not
@BeddieKU23 said in Must win game tonight:
Hes worse actually imo

@Kcmatt7 I honestly wish we'd just see one more game with Harris running point. It makes me upset that Marcus will come back and likely take PG back.
stop
Why? I think this is a discussion worth having even if Self won't consider it. Garrett doesn't have that feel for the game and ability to control pace/flow like great PGs have. Collins/Frank/Graham/Dotson had it, Dajuan has it.
ya right - -it is just that he does so many other things i don't give a dam you can't have him off the floor
we getting pretty much ANYTHING we want right now on the offensive end

Bill needs to play Enaruna just enough to keep him one more year. He’s got to be like only a a year away from making the leap
Feels like he could just explode. I hope he sticks around too. Someone has to go to make room for a guard.
would be nice if he did, might surprise us - -kind of worried he might transfer out, with the others we got coming in - -hell I dunno I'm just a couch potato fan lol
just need to come out 2nd half , keep same intensity play smart. - - 4to's for a half is pretty dam good, just can't go brain dead
@Kcmatt7 said in Must win game tonight:
So Mizzou was overrated. Didn’t see that asswhooping they took from a not great MSU team
oh ya , missery got beat ? - -dam - - that's to bad lmao
man I'm telling you when we are playing 5 out and moving the ball - - not stickin - -looks really fluid , looks so much better
64 % from the field 60 % from the 3 and 7-9 from the line 4 to's - -17-9 rebounding
We got to be pretty solid in front on rebounding aren't we ?- -seems like were controlling pretty well anyways
@approxinfinity said in Must win game tonight:
I'm happy with Dave's impact on the game. light touch, played ok. Position isn't on lock, maybe the word is out, Mitch and Roman Numerals showing signs of life.
agree I think Dave has played fairly decent tonight 8 points he plays better against true big's just like they were talking the other night. - Not Great but decent
I know I can't be that crazy BUT dang Tristan playing pretty well tonight over all
Sweet flush by Christan
@KirkIsMyHinrich said in Must win game tonight:
Jalen Wilson is our best player and it's not close.
Not EVEN
Tristan & Dave helping out tonight. - - Dave 8 points & Tristan 7 - -nice pass from Dave to Oachi
what happened to Oach ? - - started out really good and then - -POOF
@approxinfinity said in Must win game tonight:
@jayballer67 well Harris isn't out there.
ya I know that. - - not doing us any good on the bench - - that's where we miss Marcus not being able to play
THAT'S where we miss Marcus
I must be watching fantasy game. - - Tristian & McCormack both scored
@BShark said in Must win game tonight:
At this point I wouldn't even mind just seeing what Jossell looks like over TGF or Tristan just to have an actual guard in.
wouldn't think it could hurt possibly
yet the sad part on the fouls is - -they are the right calls
anyone notice 6-2 fouls?
@DanR said in Must win game tonight:
Tristin literally scored for the opponent. Rock bottom?
that's the most he has scored in some time lmao
@BShark said in Must win game tonight:
Watch this ACC shit show go to OT.
you watching it on ESPN News ?
@BeddieKU23 said in Non-KU Games Thread:
The SEC really is bad
ya they still only won by 3 at home and that was a 3 with about 13 seconds to go
@BeddieKU23 said in Must win game tonight:
Garrett not in team warmups..
ya and - - not only that but Oachi with hamstring
@approxinfinity said in Things that will hold this team back/out:
@justanotherfan yeah if Marcus is fit to play tonight, then I agree. Harris Marcus Braun Ochai Thompson has to be the starters. But with Marcus out I don't think I would start that group replacing Marcus, would you? Thompson probably still injured. Maybe get TGF in? Hope he gets it by seasons end?
you just CAN NOT play Harris & Garrett at the same time for extended minutes - - then you have to really legit scorers from the outside. , playing them together allows the opposition to back off and really help out on the other 3. - -There is a reason Haris is wide open just like Garrett
Looks like Kentucky starting to find themselves - -hell won their 2nd game in a row - -although it was really close

This is a late tip for a game not on the west coast.
Awful tbh
ya they were talking about that on my local sports show -- the Question is Why ? - -what the hell is going on

Epic comeback from West Virginia. Down 19 early 2nd half. Up 4 with just over 2 to play..
Huge win for Huggy
@FarmerJayhawk said in 2021 Recruiting:
Arkansas out for Crawford. Rumor is didn’t get through the SEC process for transfers.
seen Crawford name mentioned in the other TOS refreshen my memory who is this Crawford Farmer ? - -Thanks buddy
@hawk4life said in Worst Regular Season Losses in the Self Era:
@jayballer67 Ya I see the stat and he is not all to blame, but when i watch i just don't see it. Love his defense and he is strong with the ball. I just don't think he is a great creator or scorer and that's a problem for us.
I don't know , all I know he can only do so much he does so much in so many ways can't leave him off the floor. - -He can only be responsible for getting them the ball -- it's up to them to finish
@hawk4life said in Worst Regular Season Losses in the Self Era:
Dont get me wrong I like a lot of Marcus's game but I'm not sure he really does anything to create for others and I think we can all agree not much of a shooter. Kind of a bad combo for a point guard
before I say what I'm gonna say not bagging on anyone or being a smart so don't take this wrong. But concerning your statement talking about not creating for others - I just have to say AGAIN - -he has a 3-1 turnover to assist ration which is leading the tam - -and as we all know an assists is a direct pass from one ot another that leads to scores. - -so I have to say with him being the leader in this - - umm yes he does do things to help/create for others.
That's a 3-1 ratio that he is successful on - question is how many other passes he makes to others whee they don't convert. - -His assist ratio could/would be higher if the other players would finish.
@approxinfinity said in Things that will hold this team back/out:
Kansas is a good team. We just need to play to our strengths.
What exactly IS our strengths right now at this point ? - -Serious not knocking just curious what you think our Strengths really are - I don't see any that stand out. Well unless defensively and even that didn't stand out today
@Kcmatt7 said in Worst Regular Season Losses in the Self Era:
Marcus is so poor offensively for being the main ball handler. We’ve just been conditioned to think anything above awful is Marcus playing good.
Marcus took 8 shots at the rim yesterday but didn’t draw any contact to shoot a single free throw. He only had 6 points. Four assists for your starting PG who can’t really score is also pretty sad as well.
There is a spot for a Marcus Garrett on a team that can score 4 on 5. This team is not capable of that.
I would still play Harris more. He is the only guy capable of taking his man off the dribble and seeing the open man.
Again your still playing 4 on 5 with Harris out there - - No Advantage at all
@approxinfinity said in Happy new year Texas beatdown chat:
Braun a non factor. Would have liked to have seen Harris in longer. We were still in the game before he got the long ride on the pine.
the thing with Harris in is - - just another non scorer , no threat teams sag off you saw how wide open he was on his three point attempt. Your playing four on five , just like people talk about Marcus we can't have Harrison there for extended periods of time that's for sure
