He’s Dave

@DCHawker said in Red Raiders:
Graphic showed they’ve outscored us 22-6 in the paint…
Sounds about right, this team has nothing inside.
On both ends of the court…
-
Ok Jesus. Just a nothing burger then

He does a weird arm thing every time he turns to run back on d after every shot. I thought last game it was him being pumped about having a good game but does it after misses too.
-
One of those days
-
we can’t even make a fucking free throw
-
Pitiful
-
Braun missing layups and free throws is a tough pill to swallow. Been good there all year.
-
haven’t scored in over 4 minutes
-
@DCHawker Still hard to believe Bill looked at this situation and took Cam Martin.
-
Someone remind Braun he’s grown as an offensive player.
-
4:21 minutes without scoring - -just sad
-
Worst half of the season
-
@BShark yeah. I mean it reminds me of a tragically flawed fantasy basketball drafter
-
@jayballer67 starting to see a them yet when we play 4 on 5 on offense or we don’t have a stud scoring guard handling things

But he was getting more athletic, right…
-
7-0 #Chiefs
-
Okay we figured out the post. KJ for the rest of the day.
Now figure out how to score a bit. Honestly they’re gifting threes. Like wide open threes. Just make a few
-
I don’t understand. Dave 15 and 15 to invisible.
-
I’m fine with rotating KJ and Mitch. Dave has just been terrible today
-
Like what’s the deal? Wear and tear? Ok St just sucks?
-
@DCHawker yeah and we were horrible athletically and improvements would be made…Harris and Mitch starting was the solid choices Bill good acting upon those end of year statements
We have athletes they just don’t play cause they don’t know the system or they mess up AND have no leash
This is what Bill gets…it’s getting old
-
OK, we have to make some changes. Everyone go change their socks, shoes, shirts, hats, hoodies, oil, wife, whatever it is needing changed and do it now. For the love of Phog we have to do what we can to turn this thing around.
-
1st half was 5 TT players vs 2 KU players. Braun is horrible today. Defensive interior sucks.
-
Well we are in Big 12 play now - -no more sissy teams - -we got teams that actually play some defense - and where has Braun gone ? - - -DeJuan getting his lunch fed to him - -hell our whole defense if you wanna call it that is getting taken to school. - - - ONCE AGAIN getting beat one on one drives just being flat made looking stupid. No wonder we are last in the Big 12 in defense

not only interior - -the ENTIRE DEFENSE - - Wait - - what defense ?
-
Dave accepted his 6th man role I guess so no energy needed.
-
@Zabudda well he brought energy last game. Hm
-
@wissox agreed!
just get the W and get home!
-
@jayballer67 funny how that works doesn’t it with real comp away from the protection of the Phog
-
We make shots harder than they need to be. Just shoot the shot that they give you. Stop doing stupid turnaround fadeaways.
Also, Dave needs to stop wildly flailing at every shot attempt when he tries to block a shot from the weak side. One, he never blocks the shot anyway. And two, in the time that it takes him to recover, the other team has time to offensive rebound, score, go sit on the bench, and drink some water. Just contest and stay on balance if you’re going to help from the weak side. This has been pissing me off all season.
I watch Joel Embiid a lot, and often times he doesn’t even contest shots. He concedes the difficult lay-up attempt and goes to box someone out. And he’s Joel Embiid. I wish Dave would do more of that. Especially since we are getting out-rebounded.
-
This is where this teams needs an alpha dog. Someone to fall in line around. Who is it going to be?
-
We just need to hit about 1/3 of the wide open threes and we’ll be fine
-
@DanR I was going to make it more simple than that. We need to score 9 more points than them and we’ll be fine.
-
we are just so loose with the ball , wherre are the guys that can handle pressure?
-
@approxinfinity I thought our dog was going to be Braun, but he’s flailing like the rest of the team.
-
@approxinfinity Should be Remy (3 fouls in 5 minutes) or CB (2 pts and 3 turnovers), but clearly not.

my thoughts exactly. - -who is our guy that will take charge ? - where is a leader on this team , do we have one?
-
Would like to see a TT shot clock violation in the second half or a couple more bleacher balls.
What are the chances the Jalen Wilson reintegration effort is coming at the price of the rest of the team being discombobulated on offense?
-
@jayballer67 #neutered and started the game on the bench
-
@approxinfinity Wilson only looked good for about a minute
-
These announcers: “The rest of KU 4 of 17” Well, Ochai is part of the rest of Kansas and he’s 3 of 5, so it’s actually all the others who are 1 of 12 that are the real culprit.

Och trying to be the guy. But seems like he’s forcing it a bit where as earlier in the year he was successful by taking what the defense gave him.

Did anyone do their part and change anything? I put my KU hoodie on. #ifeachonedoessomething
-
We make a couple open threes and start finishing some layups and we are good this next half.
-
They’re 1 for 8 from 3. We need to pack the paint, and make them shoot jump shots.
-
@wissox I got a new wife!
-

Broke out the KU cardigan.
-
@wissox yeah. And that’s what I’m thinking about re: an alpha dog I want to see. I want to see ochai find his filthy side between now and march. Wipe that friendly Midwest nice guy smile off his face, set his f—-ing wholesome upbringing aside and learn to be a monster on the court for 40 minutes
-
Och can’t be the guy because can’t create his own shot off the dribble. The closest thing we have to that guy is Remy or Jalen
