Trust me. Grimes isn't going to drill 3's like this the rest of the season.
I hope he's humble after this lackluster performance. He's better than this, at least. He's also a reasonable defender. The issue is he just doesn't have a high BBIQ. That is his biggest drawback.
Nonetheless, he's probably the teams 4th or 5th best player.
All of this is giving Vick way too much credit and the other 9 players worthy of minutes not enough. He's trash at everything except open threes and the occasional transition basket in this sport. [Reply]

I'm really impressed with Dotson. He's waaay ahead where I thought he'd be. And, he probably has the worst BBIQ on the team. He takes it to the cup in terrible times. But he's oozing of talent.
Problem with Vick is his jumper starts out hot at the beginning of the year and fades to nothing towards the end. He can rebound but still takes bad shots and struggles to drive to the cup. [Reply]

depends on how much KU spent on their team this year

2-3 million.
Trash schools like mutt u spend 17k and get a blown out knee for it. [Reply]
