@Kcmatt7

For the love of God BLOCK is your friend. And don't requote his as+ine posts.

Juan plays well and what happens

Jalen can suck and we are ahead of a top 5 team

Juan is THE MOST IMPORTANT PLAYER

Eventually this board will see it

@Kcmatt7 would have been another Juan assist…it’s was before the best pass we may have ever seen

I commented on that as well

Juan playing like CP3 tonight

Unbelievable what a freaking play

UT talking that trash and our guys making them pay

Do it away from Allen and big 12 is back in play

Joe shoot arch man U got no chance with that flat broke arse shot

@wissox not trying to win anything but if
Ur gonna critique my comments just want to make sure u see the full picture!

I haven’t said he’s d2 like whoever the new person it’s…I’d seen thread on Phog and every opposing team isn’t afraid of Juan

Isu fan laid it out easily

@DanR he’s not got a great handle if we are being honest

Great passer but ball handling he ain’t mason or Graham

@wissox nah gotta clean up his jump shot…not sure how he didn’t take the Morrii approach with 1k threes a day

He is playing well tonight and see what is happening? He is the engine of the team as bshark said

The games he plays poor we lose or sneak by

This is the Juan we need every game. When he gets owned by isu’s frosh guard that’s not good

@wissox nah people bring up when I’m negative and ignore when I’m positive

Juan plays well he gets props

Juan plays bad I’m gonna talk about it

Kevin’s out of his slump

Attacking like a man!

@wissox

@jayballer67 deny him from bringing it up

Watch how they guard once he has it

Ball pressure cause he’s weak with his dribble

Daring him to shoot and when he drives coming to block his shot

@wissox I did - when we beat ksu at home to read that chat again

I said Juan was a stud and the most important player to the team and must play like that nightly (Frank mason like) for us to win

If he’s most underrated guard in America and an all American I expect all American play

@jayballer67 he’s the most important player

Played a good half we up

If he can play a full game we win

If he is tired he will turn it over miss shots and we lose

@benshawks08 they aren’t guarding Juan

10 shots for him through 25 minutes is crazy

He had 3 total points in 2 games against isu

@wissox we’ve played way better than I expected but it’s quick turn around and us at home

See if we can play a full game at home

Then it’s see if we can beat a good team on the road

@benshawks08 I mean they are leaving him wide open

He’s 4/10 and 0-2 from deep and nowhere close

@BShark we aren’t better so I’m not shocked

Texas decided to show up
Juan gets to the line 1/2

Gives up 3 on the other end

Getting hammered at the 1 spot

@jayballer67 Juan is who he was last year.

He just doesn’t have a remy this year to bail him out

A guy who averages 5 pg’s and 3-4 apg last year Bill said is going to be “grrreeaattt” this year and he is wrong

Juan scores 2 more often than 12 which go figure is who he has always been

He is a solid backup ppg which is when our team took off when remy started playing more minutes than him last year

Issue - Bobby sucks and Joe is worse. Bring in the frosh, a transfer guard, a transfer athletic 4 and 5

@cragarhawk UT is more athletic than tcu

It’s a must win game in AFH but I think we get bodied or dog walked on Monday and this board starts to see things for how they really are

When your most underrated should be an all American 4 year pg has 2 points, 3 assist and 2 turnovers

While his counterpart goes:
9 points, 10 assists and 8 boards as a true freshman (Lipsey)

Yeah that doesn’t bode well. Juan gets his steals and he gets beat off the dribble as much as Gradey. Isu went right at both of them

@DCHawker let him transfer he’s weak

Said last game at half he couldn’t go

If im Bill im down with him. He got hit in the mouth as a frosh and hasn’t gotten up to ever punch

Give me the new freshman and get some legit transfers who can score.

Bill prioritizes defense which is backwards. Way easier to teach an athlete to guard versus teaching a guy who can’t shoot or score to just magically at 19-20 learn how to do that

@benshawks08 can’t shoot
Can’t throw it down low for a post move
Guards don’t drive to hit floaters or create for others

Literally big 12 good teams have us figured out. Go under on ball screens and dare Juan and Bobby to shoot.

So far Juan isn’t proving his shot is as good as Bill sees in practice

I said after his 18 point game he is THE most important player and people didn’t agree. It’s blatantly obvious.

@Zabudda 11-7 for us

At Texas
At tcu
Lose one of at ou or osu

Home against Texas and Baylor aren’t guaranteed W’s either

@cragarhawk no, so many layups and dunks

Udeh is getting whipped on the block and looks completely lost. Game is slower at home than away.

Hopefully this season rests Bills gyro a little that Juan is not Chris Paul

@benshawks08 I mean JW and Kj can hang

Kev is skinny, Gradey not strong

Juan and Bobby aren’t strong with the ball or physically imposing

@BShark we go as Juan goes. Juan has been brutal and go figure we get blown out.

Doesn’t help Gradey can’t hit anything and Mccullar only plays defense

When Bobby and Juan were in genius to play the 1-3-1 and let them toss it back and forth for 25 seconds and barely get a shot up

Neither of a guards attack well

The friendly confines of AFH mask a lot

Anyone think we win the big 12?

Tcu is the best when healthy
Texas, isu, ksu, Baylor right there
Then us

Joes shot so flat just sucks has 10% chance of dropping

This one is ova

Texas and ksu gave them better games

@RockChalkinTexas I was thinking today we’d surprise them and win but this showing is resetting the expectations

Might be we just aren’t as good as we thought

@RockChalkinTexas Wilson and dick 3

Juan and Bobby 2

Not making shots just compounds things

11 down to 5 in 4 minutes then back to 11

I’m afraid it isn’t our day today

Winning big 12 is gonna be really tough

@wissox he was so hot to start the year I expected some cool off but not this

They are bodying us a ton

Joe running point?

Joe on queue lol

@benshawks08 Gradey better shooter and rebounder

Joe brings nothing

@BShark don’t make me say about Jua……….

Yesefu’s hand when he shot it went left that was so ugly. Why is Gradey not in?

@Zabudda exactly and all can shoot!

Need that 1 more guard who’s 6-7 to 6-9 and athletic whether jwill or Josh Jackson something

Kj and udeh/Zuby at the 5 plus maybe a transfer and we are set

I thin Gradey stays but even though he’s 6-8 he’s not able to guard a 4 man

@AsadZ No, based on what Bill’s said. We may in a small spurt for 1 random game here or there but starting lineups and major minutes no.

Bill has said he recruits the best players now and has changed recruiting from “hey we need a 4 or a 5 man” to “hey we need to recruit 4 guards, all who can shoot, 1 who is a true pg and 1 with some height” - jayhawk podcast I posted a week or so ago.

He’s gone full fledged 4 out 1 in like many have.

Juan flat out stepped up. Nowell turned it over 5 times and didn’t shoot it well

Juan was a stud tonight that’s the guy we need night in and night out

Final 4 team

@BShark but he looks so bad in practice isn’t Bill shocked he’s somehow been manageable in a game?

Man we attacking let’s go

Bill with Bobby at the 1 - Hall of Fame is reading my texts

First stud drive in a long time and hurt

Dudes always hurt - hope he’s okay. Least he running the 1

@BShark if that’s what gets Bill going then no wonder Bobby plays cause hustle plays are good but I’ll take a better player with hustle…..Bobby all hustle no skill

@benshawks08 haha you ain’t lying bro!

Rice semi guarded at uk for 1 whole possession then was bad

Joe definitely a quick dude but his J is whack….hope he turns it on for the tourney

@BShark what did I miss?

@BShark joe isn’t good @Texas-Hawk-10 was right caught lightning in a bottle for the tourney

He’s okay as a 9th man but Rice is more what we are accustomed to if he was up to speed

@FarmerJayhawk that was a bad call lol geez he’s sliding right snd ksu guys making a step around him

Whoever posted about Kevin’s smile at Baylor was post of the year

Kevin needs to quit worrying about calls and just play
