Yeah, Embiid is one of the best rebounders in the country. When he wasn't in, they were getting destroyed in the boards. If he didn't get into foul trouble, the game's outcome might have been completely different. He's going to have to learn how to get through games without fouling (although I found a few of his fouls awfully questionable by the standard of what they were allowing most of the game).

Wright has always given ku fits. It's not because they are better than ku. But they just happen to have a system that ku struggles with. One thing that enfuriates me about self is his half court offense. Self seems to struggle with energetic guards who can pressure the guards up top. Because the offense is pretty unimagitative about guards getting the ball to players in the post. It seems like you just need slashers at guard who can really maneuver into the lane.
The system works most of the time. But I'd just like to see self adjust when he plays a d like nova. It seems like the same types of teams can beat ku.
And they need a guy who can shoot. Their outside shooting is horrendous right now.
