Haha. They had like 22 seconds down by 3 and they forced 3 terrible 3 pointers. That last one didn’t even hit the ****ing rim. They shot less than 32% from the field tonight and still had a chance on the last possession. Entertaining comeback, but very disappointing performances in the clutch from both sides. None of those players look NBA ready if they were to jump into the league tomorrow.
Congrats to Kansas and their fans, though. They won’t give a shit how it was won. [Reply]

Agbaji is probably a 3 and D guy. Probably depends on what team he goes to as to whether or not he sticks.
Love and Bacot are NBA players. But yeah, CBB is really down this year. [Reply]

They’ll be in the league for sure and get some playing time, but I don’t see anyone from this class being a significant impact player right away. Agbaji has the most potential but his game is still very raw in NBA terms. Bacot will be a defensive spark plug type for a team. He is a tremendous rebounder and that will bring some value. None of these players have that huge clutch gene that make the last couple minutes super exciting back and forth games in the final minutes anymore, though. I miss those Curry type NCAA performances and this year kind of lacked those. [Reply]

Love, yes. I don’t know what to think about bacot. His offensive game is so dependent on overpowering and second chances. Just not impressed with his touch. Maybe he develops that over time but not sure how far that takes you in the nba. [Reply]

Thought KU was pretty clutch down the stretch... sure, not like that one NC game (UNC/Nova, maybe?) where it was 3 after 3 after 3 all in the last 30 seconds or like watching an NBA game, but they shot nearly 60% in the 2nd half and knocked down baskets when they needed them down the stretch.
UNC shot 30% in the first half and 30% in the 2nd half (maybe like 34% and 27% or something). [Reply]
