Major down year for all of the blue bloods this year. North Carolina and Kentucky aren't good by their standards, Kansas is soft, and Duke doesn't guard at ALL. [Reply]

Heh. Coincidentally KU is the only team you listed that won today. [Reply]

We need less Malik Newman. I was really jacked about this kid before I saw him play. Most expected him to be the 1st or 2nd leading scorer on this team. I've actually liked his attitude. He seems humble and trying, he's just not good. He came in with the opposite stereotype.
I hope he's just playing hurt and shell shocked, but that looks increasingly less likely every day. [Reply]

No doubt about that.
Malik Newman is going to have decisions to make this summer...likely decisions about which school he's going to transfer to. He's not going to get minutes next year with Garrett and the recruits coming in. [Reply]

Don’t forget KJ Lawson taking his PT next year too.
Newman really needs to focus on the little things. Defense, rebounding, ball movement.
We have enough scoring. Find another way to contribute if the shots aren’t falling. [Reply]
Well that was a pretty terrible half. Devonte not himself while Vick going for 3 straight single digit scoring games while doing basically nothing else on the court. [Reply]
