Still NCAA Champs or bust

[CrimsonNBlue]

If we play Drake, I could see Yes either going 0-7 with 2 TO's or go for 5-7 with 14+ points.

[ousdahl]

Ha, good point.

But shit, I dunno if we’ve ever had a lead guard that was as much of a scoring non-factor as Dajuan.

Even Milf Tits Tharpe was able to eek out like 8 points a game, and on a roster with a lot more weapons than this one too

In the end, no one has shown great things but Ochai and Braun.

I was even fine with the Braun pointing.
Just no bow and arrows.

Remy hits shots but god does he take bad ones and make awful decisions.

At this point, I’d be totally cool with just running isos for Yes for at least a few possessions every game.

LOL

Why?

We can just do that for Och and he's a legit AA candidate. Not some guy you've only seen be good in box scores for Drake. Yesufu is at best our 6th or 7th best player.

[pdub]

That's also a vote for no on Yes isos.
We have better guys for isos.

Ochai. Gap.

Remy. Gap.


Yes.

Where does he come up with some of this stuff?

[ousdahl]

I dunno why you guys were hating on Braun, which poster was that anyway?

But with that said, if Braun is a top 2 player that means this team’s ceiling is awful low.

The CB hate is quickly dying off. Shocker.

[pdub]

Braun almost just put his nuts on a dudes face.

Hes from some small town in Kansas.

Sorry hes white. Cheer for the dude.

Why is Yesufus ceiling higher than Braun?

Just because you haven't seen it or what? Where are you deciding where a players ceiling is?

Newsflash: CB has as much, if not more, ability to be an elite player as Yesufu.

[ousdahl]

I’m bullish on Braun, but also realistic enough to realize he’s a really good role player more so than the guy you wanna build the season around.

He’s a utility wing, when we need guards and bigs.

[ousdahl]

In very limited minutes, Yes has already shown more ability to get his own shot.

[CrimsonNBlue]

I don’t think this team is missing much at all. Just need to play to their potential.

The Harris minutes are suspect, but we really just need Dave and Jalen to be better.

[PhDhawk]

Holy shit, phd on Wilson right now is even worse than Qusdahl on haunkey taunk last year.

You’re setting yourself up for quite the feast of crow.

how? If he plays well that's great, it doesn't change the fact he played shitty today.

Are you eating crow for Braun?

Are you ready to eat it for Dave and Harris in the future?

How many college basketball championship teams in history have had a horrible loss like this on their resume?

[ousdahl]

Remy’s still gotta be groomed.

Not a pure floor general, and still prone to bad shots.

But he could legit become among Self’s pg masterpieces

This is another “shake up” I would like to see. Remy playing off the ball every now and then.

I was just about to post:

In 2011-12 KU had a double digit December loss to Davidson.

In 2017-18 KU had back to back December losses to bad Pac 12 teams, including a home loss to an ASU led by 21 points from some curly haired freshman named Remy

What about defense? What about moving the ball and knowing the offense?

We don't need Yesufu to get his own shot. Och and Remy do that for us.

Self doesn't run iso offense very much and he especially doesn't do it for his 7th or 8th options.

Also: you do realize Yesufu is shooting a whopping 25% from 3pt at KU? And only 40% from 2. Doesn't scream "needs more iso touches outside the flow of offense".

We lost today because of defense and missing open shots. Not because we needed more offense from Yesufu.

[pdub]

Wilson will be good.
So will Braun.
And I know with so many inches of your souls of odd hatred, so will Dave.

We need em to be.
