KJ has actually shown some flashes of shooting ability. If he takes a spot up 3 after weve run a little offense/shot clock that isn't a wasted possesion. garrett has hit the occasional 3... but his shot is still so flat and ugly. he really shouldnt shoot from out there unless the shot clock is about...

Marcus morris is quietly (efficiently) having the best season of his career. and the celts are starting to gel and rack up some wins. apparently hes performing well enough to start getting his name thrown into the all star conversation Morris is averaging career-highs in points per game (15.4), rebo...

As a GM of any NBA team... youd have to be pretty crazy or pretty desperate to trade for wiggins 150 million dollar contract right now

I didn't know duke was on our schedule?

Oubre barely made it onto to the court the beginning of his freshman year. was absolutely lost. and by the end of the year we couldnt afford to bring him out. stud. and ended up drafted 15th overall. so too early to worry about grimes

I wouldn't mind seeing our starting lineup look like this until dok gets healthy: dotson vick garrett lightfoot D lawson. easily our best lineup this weekend and a reason self stuck with them the last 7 or so minutes. and seems like we would be able to rotate better with moore, grimes, KJ, and mccor...

Agreed. Small ball doesn't work well without shooters imo.

yes. small ball isnt gonna work the way it did last year. not enough shooting keeps us from spreading the floor and its not an advantage.

embiid starting to get frustatred the way the sixers offense has changed since the jimmy butler trade. surprised? not really

be patient with charlie. he can shoot the ball well. hes a scorer. he just needs to get comfortable here at KU. get some confidence and rhythm going. the shots will start falling

I think Grimes, like McLemore, and not like Wiggs, Oubre, Jackson, is just such a prototypical 2 guard and lacks length and rebounding like wings have. I think the next step for Bill’s evolution is taking 3/4 hybrid wings and playing them at the 4 like Jackson. He and the NBA want the 3/4 to be int...

It's the elephant in the room, and completely changes this team. At some point, I'll get too tired to watch Bill keep preferring guys like Q to Romeo Langford. Or Xavier to Lance Stephenson. Or Oubre to Justice Winslow. what in the actual fuck? lol. Xavier was light years better than Lance in colle...

dedric isnt an NBA level athlete. never will be. but he is a hell of a basketball player. who knows if he will try to play professionally next year but I would love to have him back as a senior

Dotson might be the most important player on the team. could someone else dribble the ball up the court? sure. but thats different then getting us into our sets and handling the ball pressure. coach self seems to agree there is a reason dotson played 43 minutes yesterday.

Wiggins biggest problem was he was a victim. A victim of hype. He has nonhuman athleticism. It's ridiculous. But his basketball skills are very average by NBA standards and there is more to the game than just athleticism. And there is a difference between work ethic and competitiveness

Does Lawson want to go pro? will he be back? if not we sure as hell will need mitch here

can we agree KJ should continue getting decent minutes at both the 3 and 4? gives us a ton of toughness and versatility
