KU Elite 8 game chat
-
So far Duke has shown:
1-3-1
2-1-2
3-2
2-3
And I saw one of Self’s old 3-2 junk zones one possessions.
Zero way to prepare a team for this second game of 2 in 3

The inside corners are open. Jackson would eat this zone alive.
If you swap JJ for Vick this team probably only has like 2-3 losses.
-
@Blown you can’t just consider what one team does. Especially when those numbers are inflated because we have never faced a zone team with this much talent.

Only reason we have more boards is we have missed a ton of shots. I’m encouraged that balls are bouncing our ways off misses. But to win this game we gotta make shots. Nothing else matters. Shoot 60% this half and win. Shoot 40 and lose
Duke missed 1 fewer shot than KU, we’re legitimately outrebounding them so far.
-
@jaybate-1.0 Wright will do the same kind of crap if KU pulls off a miracle and wins this game. Which I severely doubt.
-
@Kcmatt7 sure i can. i’m not trying to publish a thesis. Ku is shooting well below their average. There is no arguing that point
-
We need to start driving the zone more. Their wings play to high up to get back to help.
-
Does anyone know if Mitch is alive? Might try him at the 4 in the same type of role as Vick idk at this point…
-
The best answer is to start hitting shots. Let it fly! That’s Self’s mantra for today’s game. Who woulda thunk that? It’s a far cry from fool’s gold!
-
@Blown than your post is simply ignorant. No arguing that.
-
@Kcmatt7 at least you win the insult of the day award.
-
Self will come up with something, but if the players can’t read the defenses it’s hopeless unless Duke keeps missing
-
@Blown I saw your original post. Seems like you at least tied.
-
If doke starts dunking we be good
-
@Blown The point is just that the trough theory is crapped. @Kcmatt7 did a post dissecting the data awhile back, I’ll look for it after KU is done losing this game mostly on Self’s stubborness.

Looks to me like a 4:1 that morphs to Offenses’ movement /spacing
-
Head flopper.
-
Doke dumb
-
Here we go…
-
Just can’t stay on the floor
-
Svi has been great on the glass today surprisingly.
-
Time to give Wendell #4.
-
7 5 wing span and fouls
-
You thiink Ku will shoot > 40% 9 games?
-
YES MALIK! YES, YOU MAY!
-
GARBAGE! Come on ref!
-
Yes!!!
-
Nice. Vick looked comfortable that time.
-
HELL YEAH SILVIO! Big time!
-
Attacking the zone - it’s been there all game long and will continue to be.
-
Self adjustment works, now if we can make shots another half
-
that was off them.maybe not.
-
Don’t go Allen’s stupid jump fakes…
-
Ku switching more out front thak god
-
Great skip pass Svi
-
No trough yet
-
Not through yet!
-
Vickkkk
-
Good half time adjustments - don’t rely completely on 3. The 3 opens up because of attacking the middle of the zone and dribble penetration. Keep them off balance. They aren’t quick enough!!!
-
Attack atttack
-
@Blown Who gives a crap about percentages, it’s who wins the frickin game
-
What you troughkin ‘bout
-
Self has given them rules about passing around the wing for different zones to get us to baseline. Good idea. Collapse the zones from underneath the zone
-
Keep an eye on k now during time outs. Make sure he doesn’t spend them talking to refs!
-
I did see a legit different zone in 2nd now. Maybe I missed what you saw. But they do morph when we overload a side.
