Also, I notice that Brannen Greene played well, even on defense. Maybe he's finally coming around. I didn't like Traylor getting so many minutes in the second half, though.

Selden really bailed us out when things were going south in the 2nd half there for a bit, the team clamped down defensively, and that was it for SDSU.

Well coached game from Self overall. He didn't just have the team pound the ball down low repeatedly like they did against Harvard, he opened up the offense to deal with the specific issues SDSU posed. The defense was good as well, although they still allowed too many OREBs.

People that hate Doug Gottleib are people that dont appreciate insightful, truthful criticism. He says it how it is.

Doug Gottlieb is really pretty good. He does have a pseudo-thing for KU as he was railed on pretty hard by KU students when he played for OSU. And he's had some interesting discussions on the radio over the years that lead to some heated back and forths from KU supporters.... Instead of smoothing it over, he fueled the fire as he loves debate... so a lot of KU folks have him marked.

PG and SG (or really a 2nd PG) is the biggest strength of this team. I have no idea what you are talking about. We lack post up scorers and a banger down low as of yet. But this is a well rounded team. The great thing about Graham & Mason is we will have them both next year too. Its like having a young player in baseball on their rookie contract for years to come.

I can't stand this backcourt.

At all.

There is a lack of consistency and stability on both ends of the ball. It's not a smoothly running offense and both of those guys are the reason why.

It's been my least favorite KU team to watch play during the Bill Self era.

When they bring in their regular 7 footers for Mamadou, they look tiny in comparison. Should try to push the pace a lot in that one to limit the impact of their size.
