****Official Kansas Jayhawks at Oklahoma State Cowboys****

Kansas at Oklahoma State

Stillwater, Oklahoma

8pm

ESPN

Gameday Crew is there for what is expected to be an epic battle.

OSU was ranked pretty highly earlier this season and they are still a very dangerous team. I expect a good game.

2 to 50.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure you're still on the wrong end of this argument.

Bit of an argumentum ad populum fallacy there, eh?

Ok, here's the sum substance of flopping: Nothing that flops is a good thing. End of story.

Mario Chalmers isn't a good thing then?

[Chiefs Pantalones]

Smart is hurting his team. What's new?

Lol, has he ever flopped like Smart?

I highly, highly doubt it.

[Meatloaf]

KCC, methinks you may be a bit too literal tonight? Might I suggest a lozenge?

the play tonight is a prime example. All the players KC has listed......they sure as hell arent pulling the crap Smart pulled tonight AWAY FROM THE BALL!

I just turned the game on. Someone fill me in.

I understand the point about doing all it takes to win, and even if it's a cop out, doing whatever you can until the refs stop calling it... but I think that's where DJ's point comes in. If you're a walk on, that's all you've got. And if you're more than that, I understand players wanting to exaggerate calls that actually should be called, because maybe the ref missed one before or whatever... but, at this point Marcus Smart has no integrity, no respect for the game. And tonight he has more flops than points. He's not just trying to get a call here or there, it's all he can do on offense (tonight).

You can say it's part of the game, potentially good for the team, whatever, but I really don't know how anyone can respect it.

I watch the Heat all the time. Almost every game I can. The answer would be yes.

Tharpe is playing lights out.....well, actually, he's playing like he's in the dark. Both teams playing poorly. KU has 11 turnovers at half. KU guard play is HORRIBLE. Only reason KU is in the game is because of, well, I'm not sure how they're staying in the game.

As bad as Smart. That's hard to fathom.

Huh, surprised by that, but I don't watch them much... mostly surprised since when I've watched, he comes off the bench and shoots 3s. Even then, I'd think he'd come in third to Wade and LeBron in that category... those two are really, really "good" at it.
