86-66 Final. Like I said..KU was pissed.


It helps that Baylor sucks.

Hahah, the funny part was the reeruns kept yelling it after he made a NBN 3-pointer.

KU sure tried alot harder to run an offense in this game ... i'm glad



looked rusty, but they need to keep trying ... by tourney time maybe they will have it together.

WTF? They make 16 3 pointers and they are rusty? Their inside game could have used a little polish, but they scored 86 points....

You KU fans are NEVER pleased! :)

Well, I guess I understand. Hawkins only has one good game a year, and this was it.

the "Rust" i was talking about was when they were trying to actually run and offense.... not when they were jacking up 3's all over the place.


ya Mildcat punk!! :loser:



:p

RR didn't play at all?

I can't believe he's benched for Hawkins. Long term, that is bad news for KU.

We're going to need RR in the tourny.

Didn't he get his cornea scratched in teh Kentucky game? He hasn't played much since then.

Self is also pretty consistent about not playing guys who have not practiced well. Maybe he's had a bad week of practices.

seems like self has pretty much given up on a true high-low offense.



he had a big man running the baseline for possible lob pass tonight

This is one of the strangest KU teams of late to figure out.

They have the talent.

Saturdays performance against Villanova was just one of those any given days.

The performance tonight was not stellar by any means, KU was hot outside tonight, if we would of had a cold night shooting, it would have been single digits win /loss.

Wow what a game, 16 3-Pointers a new team record, and what a game by Jeff Hawkins, Damn.

I don't think it was due to just hot shooting. They made the extra pass tonight. They also played better on the defensive end. Giddens, for the most part, didn't jack up everything. He waited for the good shot. I would like to see more transition easy buckets and better rebounding, though. But all in all, KU crushed a team that they should've crushed. They played as a team in doing so.

I'm also seeing him go to the motion offense as well. Thank god, that Hi-Lo sucks.

yep ... i hope they continue to try on the offense end



They must keep passing and moving without the ball. It will really start paying off in the long run. Soon they will get better at it and the offense will really start to develop.

Ditto.

A quote from Langford that pretty much backs up what I said last night:
