Braun has a career high and didn't shoot an arrow once. He's good in my book.

But in all seriousness. Dave will have a handful of games this year where he will take over and play well. But the way the game is going, and the majority of the teams that KU will play, there is not as much of a need for him as the 5 man.

A straight dominating stretch from like the 15 minute mark to the end.

Harris is why McBride wasn’t part of the program’s plans.

Don't know if I've seen a more talented mop-up group on the floor.

Averaging 93 points. The team can score. Harris so damned smooth. Some great looking offensive strokes.

2 games in and I've come to find out that Doke really spoiled us last year.

I think my favorite part of this is not just Haunkey’s 3, but the fact we got a guard who can draw in a defender and dish to the open man

Playing 4-5 guards nearly the whole game seems to indicate that he really isn't too stubborn to admit it.

What I mean by his stubborness is that he still runs everything through the bigs. And he's stated publicly that if he could, he'd play 2 bigs. He's stubborn as shit with that.

Dave’s glory years would have been 10 years. He is what he is. A big, lumbering back to the back big whose best strengths are from a by gone era.

We will see.

Dave has the ability to hit jumpers from midrange and other skills. He is clearly going fast and making mistakes. I do think we will see a lot of 5 out and that is fun.

He's not slow. He's got the physical tools. It's mental right now.

When we play teams that jack 30+ 3's, Dave's issues will be magnified. Against teams that play slow and/or traditional, he will be much better. Give it time, but it will happen.
