At defense

What do they say the point difference home court advantage is? I dont care what anyone says, its gotta be close to ten points even. Its just unreal these days how good teams play at home compared to on the rd

Yep. Its the mid major strategy, except they dont do it w threes. Would really like that 30 sec shot clock

Depends on the home court. KU's is pretty close to 10 points, though, maybe a little less.

It's not even half that, GMAFB. Ken Pomeroy suggests it's not even in the upper 1/2 of home courts statistically (I think he's wrong there).

I think Wiggins was unsure about the clock, and wanted to get the ball out of his hands quickly.

I was hard on Tharpe earlier this year, but then he started hitting shots, and he cut down on his turnovers.

Since then there have been times when he refuses to shoot, making passes to cold shooters or just dribbling into traffic and forcing up bad shots.'

Last night, on back to back possessions I believe, he just flat out lost the ball while dribbling. It made me honestly wonder about his intentions. I know he wasn't point shaving, but I am not sure how the starting point guard, on a top ten 10, just dribbles the ball away with the game on the line, TWICE!

What the **** does that even mean.

His system had KU beating Tech by 5 yesterday and has them beating them by 12 at home. So yeah, the advantage is a little less than 10.

Not sure. I don't see how Tech "deserved" to win this one any more than KU.

They played a lot harder than we did. Our effort has to get better.

I agree with this, but I think a large part of our problem last night was absolutely HORRIBLE play at the point guard position. Couldn't shoot, dribble, or pass....much less orchestrate anything on the court. Several times Imbiid was begging for the ball and our guards just wouldn't/couldn't feed it to him.

Worst point guard play I've seen in a KU game for.....well.....years. Muy bado.
