*** Official KU vs Texas Big XXII Tourney Championship ***

[Ultra Peanut]

No pressure...

[Mr. Laz]

need both from robinson

[Skip Towne]

End it, RussRob

[Coach]

KU showed up on the FT line today, which is one reason they're winning this game.

86% right now, compared to their 66% of the season.

[Lzen]

Robinson has not been a good FT shooter this season.

[CoMoChief]

thats game! more than likely

[Mecca]

I think that's pretty much it.

[Fairplay]

Done deal now.

[Lzen]

But he was clutch hitting those 2 right there.

[Mr. Laz]

stop the ball ..... don't foul

[Coach]

Robinson has not been a good FT shooter this season.

Like my previous post said, the team was a 66% FT shooting.

They shot 86% today.

[chiefsfan987]

Great job on FT's today hawks! 86%!!

You can laugh at Durant when he goes to the NBA and gets swatted like a fly......he weighs about 2 lbs for as great as he is for that game he needs to add some serious weight.

[KCFalcon59]

The #1 seed KU Jayhawks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[banyon]

This was an incredible game. Both teams played their hearts and guts out. Here's to hoping neither has to play on Thursday. :toast:

[Mr. Laz]

oh ya ...

and fuuuck the dam announcers of this game who rarely took their mouths off of Durant's pecker long enough to call the game as it played out.

nlm

[banyon]

You are demented if you think Durant's not going to be a good pro.

[KCFalcon59]

He's just a kid. He will gain weight. He is going to be a superstar NBA player in a few years.

[Mecca]

You are demented if you think Durant's not going to be a good pro.

He will be eventually but he'll need to add weight or he'll get knocked off every play. The NBA is a different game, he'll be physically mauled by guys.

His upside is Garnett who was also a rail when he was drafted and he'll need to gain the weight like Garnett did.

[CoMoChief]

Stanford should not be in.

[Lzen]

Well, it looks like Kansas was ranked #11 in the RPI before today's game. With the win today (I'm still not convinced this game makes a difference), they should be a #1 seed.

[CoMoChief]

Durant reminds me of McGrady, but taller.

He'll gain some weight. He'll get stronger. Thats just the easy part.

Durant will be a great pro. He'll be an allstar within 3-4 seasons I think.

[Lzen]

Yep, Garnett is the player I was gonna compare him to. I think Durant will be fine in the NBA. But yeah, he will have to gain weight.

really ....... i still wouldn't shocked if Kansas was a 2 seed even after beating Texas again on a neutral site.

[HolmeZz]

He will be eventually but he'll need to add weight or he'll get knocked off every play. The NBA is a different game, he'll be physically mauled by guys.

On the defensive end, maybe. He's more than good enough to get it done offensively right now.

[Skip Towne]

Congrats to KU. I hate all things related to Texas sports.
Why? Did they reject you too?

[Skip Towne]

We're a 1 seed. F*ck a bunch of RPI. What a goofy rating system.

[leviw]

really ....... i still wouldn't shocked if Kansas was a 2 seed even after beating Texas again on a neutral site.

Texas game had nothing to do with it. Committee was done way before KU/UT ended.

[Mecca]

On the defensive end, maybe. He's more than good enough to get it done offensively right now.

That's pretty much what I meant, I should have been clearer. He can score in the NBA because he's a big man with range that can create his own shot.

On the defensive end guys who are his height are going to be 40lbs heavier........so he's going to really struggle there.

I still think Garnett is the best player in the NBA, can Durant be that good? Probably not KG is a HOF, one of the best ever type guys. Durant is probably the closest thing I've seen to him so he'll be an all star premier player provided he wants to work hard to do the things he needs to do.

[Pants]

Wooot!

OMFG, heart attack time...

[ChiefaRoo]

Why? Did they reject you too?

You're a goofy one skip. Keep it coming you okie goat herder you.

[Mr. Laz]

i wonder if all the talking heads will talk about how Texas only kept it close because Arthur got hurt?

[acesn8s]

With Wisconsin and UCLA losing this week. I don't see how KU can't be a #1 seed in the St. Louis Bracket

[Chiefs_Mike_Topeka]

2 points as far as the NCAA selections goes.


If KU is not a #1 seed and the #2 overall seed its a fugging joke.


If K-State does not make it; thats the biggest joke and travesty of the NCAA tournament history.

[Al Czervik]

Congrats to KU. I hate all things related to Texas sports. Now, don't face plant in the second round when you run into a good mid major.

No kidding....I just hope we dont have to play Wichita St. They scare me :-P

[Chiefs_Mike_Topeka]

Any update on Darrell Arthur? I thought he just caught a knee in the nuts and thought he would return. Must have been more severe.

[Dr. Johnny Fever]

I hope we have something left in the tank for the dance.

[Mecca]

Any update on Darrell Arthur? I thought he just caught a knee in the nuts and thought he would return. Must have been more severe.

Hey catching a knee to the ballsack is pretty severe in my book.

[leviw]

That is pretty severe.

[Skip Towne]

Wouldn't it be great if the Chiefs were as exciting as the :KU:?

[banyon]

Did they hand out a Tourney MVP?

It should be Durant in a runaway.

[the Talking Can]

****ing great game....love my hawks

and there isn't 5-10 teams in the country better than UT

[ChiefaRoo]

No kidding....I just hope we dont have to play Wichita St. They scare me :-P

Don't get cocky. KU winning a great game for the Big4 title is nice but KU's season will be decided by how far they go in the tournament. They have the talent now lets see if they can do anything when it really matters. KU's program has a bigger monkey on it's back than Peyton Manning did.

Me calling out your dumbassery wont have any impact on how KU does in the tournament.

Jesus, you're ****ing retarded. You make it sound like we lose in the first round every time we make the tourney.

[ChiefaRoo]

Not everytime just the past two years.

Get real, it's obvious KU underachieves in the dance. With all the talent that has come and gone through Lawrence. KU hasn't won a title since 1987. All I'm saying is now is the time for them to get it done.

[Al Czervik]

If you think your stupid comment about the face plant will go unnoticed, your a bigger cheesedick than I thought.

[ChiefaRoo]

If KU gets to the elite 8 or better then their season is a success. They have the talent to win it all.

[ChiefaRoo]

If you think your stupid comment about the face plant will go unnoticed, your a bigger cheesedick than I thought.

Listen short bus. KU has face planted the last two years. That's a just a fact. It's not smack.

I hope KU has a great run in the tourney but if they don't I'll hunt you, Skip and Ari down on this board and will remind you of it until you go into a fetal position while holding your KU plush toy.

Wow....this coming from the douche that claimed Wichita St. the best in the state. I doubt I will look as stupid as you.

Umm, Saul started that thread and he's a K-State fan.

The facts are WSU had a great start against teams that were supposed to be loaded. Beating Syracuse and LSU on the road were good wins.


PS - Are you retarded or just too young to think reasonably?

[Simply Red]

Durant is so sick, watching Julian trying to match him is always good for a laugh.

Best play of the game: Kaun's communist ass getting planted into the ground by freshman James. LOL great play.

To KU fans: Go walk in traffic.

Where did you go TWAT?

Funny how he disappears.

KU made back to back final fours in recent years. Why don't you mention that?

And it was '88 when they won it all.

Because I'm not a KU fan and I don't care about propping up the program with near misses when the talent level screams where are the championships? It's a fair and obvious question to ask guys.

By the way don't be a smartass it was the '87/'88 season.

Just a footnote: Chiefaroo attended KU for a short time before KU regurgitated him. Then he ran back to momma in Wichita. I don't think Wichita is all that crazy about him either.

I didn't realize this little tidbit. Very nice.

The comeback from 22 points down marked the greatest deficit KU has ever overcome, topping a 19-point rally to beat UCLA in 1995.

Kansas deflects Durant, Texas for second straight title
By Kevin Haskin
The Capital-Journal
Published Monday, March 12, 2007

OKLAHOMA CITY — The Big 12 Tournament could have been billed as the one, and only, time to marvel at Texas freshman sensation Kevin Durant play in a postseason conference tournament.

So Kansas chose to do just that through the first 15 minutes Sunday in the championship game at the Ford Center.

Durant canned shots from virtually everywhere. Bombs, fadeaways, stickbacks ... it didn't matter. The 6-foot-9 superstar was simply on top of his extensive game, scoring 22 points by the 5:44 mark of the first half while staking the Longhorns to a 22-point lead.

"He came out on fire against us, just like last time,'' said KU sophomore forward Julian Wright, recalling the 16-point lead Texas forged in Allen Fieldhouse before losing 90-86 on March 3. "They must like playing the first four minutes, but we stayed calm. ... Once you start looking at the scoreboard, you're in trouble.''

CBS executives thought the same thing heading into their selection show.

It took an overtime for Kansas to nip Texas 88-84 and claim the Big 12 tournament crown for the second straight season and fifth time since the inception of the league in 1996-97.

The Jayhawks barely got the last strand of the net clipped before they were announced as a No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament and destined to open Friday in Chicago between the winner of a play-in game Tuesday between Florida A&M and Niagara.

Once the brackets were released, the classic final Kansas (30-4) waged against Texas (24-9) was anti-climatic.

But far from forgettable.

"What a fun game to play and coach in, because everything's been decided where you're going to be (in the NCAAs),'' said KU coach Bill Self. "All you're doing is playing for pride to win the conference tournament, against a great team in a great atmosphere. There were some guys making some great plays out there.''

Especially when the Jayhawks lugged another trophy home and used enough key plays as a team to offset Durant and extend their winning streak to 11 in a row.

The comeback from 22 points down marked the greatest deficit KU has ever overcome, topping a 19-point rally to beat UCLA in 1995.

"We like to be part of history,'' said junior guard Russell Robinson. "That's always amazing and it shows how tough we are.''

Just how bleak did it get for the Jayhawks? At the 8:08 mark of the first half, Texas owned its largest margin, 32-10. Fifty seconds later, Durant connected again to make him 8-for-10.

Then, he turned human. Durant waited 161/2 minutes before making another field goal while being chased by the Jayhawks' Brandon Rush. Durant finished with 37 points, but missed 16 of his last 20 attempts, including eight straight.

"I tried to pressure him, make him use his right hand a lot more,'' said the 6-6 Rush. "My team helped me out a lot.''

"They didn't do anything different. I missed easy shots,'' Durant said. "They did a great job pushing me out of the lane and helped on defense. I credit them.''

Credit to KU should extend across the board.

Backup guard Sherron Collins looked more like the clutch freshman who took over several conference games. He led the Jayhawks with 20 points, several off daredevil drives. Rush and Wright chipped in 19 apiece, and Mario Chalmers added 17.

It was Chalmers' 3-pointer with 15 seconds left in regulation that forced the overtime.

"I came off the pick and I was wide-open, so I thought I'd take it,'' Chalmers said. "They were focused on Brandon and Sherron, and forgot about me at the top of key.''

In overtime, Rush and Darnell Jackson blocked attempts by the Longhorns' D.J. Augustin on back-to-back possessions, and KU made five of its last six free throws to cap its second four-point win over Texas in eight days.

"I'm no hometown hero,'' said Jackson, who was playing before family and friends in his native OKC. "I just told myself to go get it.''

Jackson followed his block by sinking two free throws with 13.2 seconds left to give KU an 86-81 lead.

Then, after UT sophomore A.J. Abrams netted the last of his 19 points with a 3-pointer, Robinson made two more foul shots at the :5.3 mark.

"We have got some big cajones,'' Jackson added. "We pulled it out. There wasn't anybody giving up.''

[Lzen]

From another article.
Freshman forward Darrell Arthur missed the last 17 minutes of the game after suffering a bruised pelvic bone. He required medication after the game and could be limited this week in practice.

"It's going to be painful from what I've heard,'' Self said. "He hurt it pretty good, tried to come back but couldn't go. ... He's just going to have to grind it out, be tough and play through it.''

In addition, junior center Sasha Kaun suffered a bruised back when he landed hard early in the second half. He did return.
