ku by 7 tonight. We'll get down early and trail by 12 at half (37-25). We'll get it to a one possession game at the under 4 and then you'll FT the game away.
I don't think it's really even debatable. Grimes should be getting 5 mpg a game at this point. He's not an NBA player unless he becomes a great 3point shooter. No clue how he was this high of a recruit, he lacks the first step and athleticism to finish at all. Bad ball handler. Not strong with the ball despite his "NBA BODY". He tries to defend, just can't. He is one of the worst players on the team at drawing fouls. [Reply]

you can’t blame Self too much for the Grimes fiasco yet.... every rating had him as a top recruit. Possible lottery pick. Certain one and done. How did he get universally ranked this high, yet looks like shit for most of the time he is on the floor? Self is one on the best coaches in the game. Not buying it’s his fail. So what is it? [Reply]
Streak is over. I had some hope they could climb back into the pack and ride things out maybe with a little help from other teams in the conference, but not after tonight. This was a huge game for them and they blew it.
This team won't make it out of the 1st wknd.
Grimes is awful. And when Vick isnt hot from downtown hes almost just as bad.
-No leadership anywhere on this team
-No halfcourt offense
-Poor shot selection
-No perimeter O
-No perimeter D
-Poor transition game
-Careless as hell with the ball
-No presence in the paint, although not much Self can do about that, kind of has to play the hand hes been dealt.
-In addition to the above, team has no bench.
Simply put, this team doesn't really do anything decent. Self is left to doing/trying dumb out of the box shit hoping something sticks. Cant really blame the guy when team is dogshit. [Reply]
Hahaha. Cheatin KU finally had their cheating catch up to them. That one dude that KU gave money to cant play and since they cant use the players they have to pay to come play for them, they suck and cant win. [Reply]

You obviously watch a bunch of basketball huh? [Reply]

Don't feed the trolls.
Without Doke, this team just doesn't have the talent we are used to seeing.
Grimes is a bigger disappointment than our worst criticisms of Selden. If he is even half the guy we expected, we are once again dominating the league.
Speaking of disappointments, Moore is horrific as well. The lack of defensive awareness from him and Grimes makes this team very hard to watch. [Reply]

If we're being truly honest here, you guys should be pissed you didn't win by 20. Especially after the start KU had. KU is really limited and you guys let us back in. We've been in that situation and I've been pissed at our guys.
But good win. Probably ended the streak barring some epic fucktardery. [Reply]
