Kansas vs. Michigan Open Game Thread

Michigan Wolverines at Kansas Jayhawks, Dec 19, 2009 11:00 AM CST


Photo

Is it me, or does this feel like a game with a little more excitment?  I think maybe it's me.  With the football coaching search resolved and the holidays upon us it feels like basketball season.  The Wolverines come to town today to take on the Jayhawks.  A test? Not so sure.  The Jayhawks seem to be finding themselves a little bit but it still remains to be seen whether that will hold true as the competition level rises.

If you're new, and I know we've got some new folks, jump in today if you're around watching at home.  An Open Game Thread or OGT as we affectionately call it, is basically a Rock Chalk Talk sports bar in a sense.  Whoever's around, get's together...talks some basketball...talks Kansas sports and we might even talk things not so Kansas sport related.  Regardless it's a chance to follow the game and talk about the game with some folks who have a common interest, that being Kansas. 

The game is on ESPN so I'll spare everyone the link to the online feed.  If anyone does need it, send me an email and I'll get it over to you or throw it up in the thread and we can post it.

As far as those "lurkers" still hiding in the shadows, jump in...we don't bite...well KG might.  Seriously though, it's free, it's fun and it's a place to talk Kansas sports with other Jayhawks.  Register Here.

this game does have more excitement for me: First nationally televised game during the holiday season, home game against a BCS conference, and we are starting to approach the end of College football so college bball is starting to get more press. Oh and did I mention we’re still #1?

Hey

Anybody been keepin up with Sasha Kaun lately? The guy is starting now on the 2 time defending euroleague championship team. In his last four games he’s averaged 15 and 7. How bout them apples?

So many solid players on the 2008 squad....

Sasha was the king of the backdoor alley-oop dunk that year, or at least the one I liked the most. Glad he’s doing well.

No, but I do know that

Rod Stewart (not THAT Rod Stewart, Warden, you old man) is tearing it up in Finland currently, averaging about 13 or 14 ppg, 5 or 6 rpg and I think about 5 or 6 apg as a point guard. Also, he is actually coming home today for the first time in months to meet his newborn daughter. I’ve had a little interaction with him on Facebook and the guy is a really stand-up guy. He’s always on Skype with his girlfriend and daughter and posting pictures non-stop.

A nice, little anecdote about just yet another classy Jayhawk.

One thing I learned in college, speaking of it and jobs

Is if you treat college like a job it will make you successful. I dicked around my frosh year and had like a 2.5 at the end of it (ended up much higher) and what I would do is treat school (afterwards) like a 9 to 5. Just be on campus from 9-5, if I’m not in class studying, reading, doing homework, etc. Then, barring a big test or project, you’ll find that after 5 each day you have 7-8 hours to do whatever the hell you want its awesome. Plus nothing fun happens during the day anyways.

Sore fucking subject.

I’ve gone to every game all year. Watched all of the Orlando games on TV over Tgiving Break, plus watched K-State game with a bunch of friends.

We have a ticket lottery system for the UC game. You join a tent, enter the lottery, tickets are given out by lottery.

We were like the last tent chosen out of 140. I didn’t get to go.

I couldn’t be any more pissed off. However, my best friend sat in the front row, the one painted half silver half blue, and at one point he threw down an upside down “okay” symbol. That was just for me. So that made not being there slightly better.

Not hating on ‘em. I’m legit intrigued to see how their strategy of building from the wings in works out for them. If you go back and look at the last 10 Stanley Cup winners, building from the center out is a very common theme. I think it’ll be very interesting to see if the Blackhawks formula produces more than a pile of regular season wins.

But how the fuck are they going to keep Sharp? Say they have to cut him because he’s too expensive and they’re left with Toews. That’s a big problem. Unless they can convince someone stupid (sup, Montreal) to take Campbell or Huet, I don’t see them being able to hold on to a lot of their talent past this season.

LAST thing we needed there was tyshawn to go fast at the basket and charge

Run offense, kill clock, etc. Brady is about to swipe Tyshawn’s starting spot.

Cole needs to stop pitterpattering when he gets the ball. Make a quick move to the basket or pass to an open shooter don’t just stand there for pete’s sake

by Andrew Clark on Dec 19, 2009 12:49 PM CST reply actions  

I swear to pete.

If we try one more fragging crosscourt pass I’m going to lose it.

Memo to Cole:

when you rebound the ball under the basket…do not attempt to dribble. Go immediately toward the basket in an attempt to score or pass to someone else who can score.

How do we not rebound that?

Christ guys. good d there though. We need to kill. the. freaking. clock. on. offense.

could be burning off 25 seconds and then turning it over rather than just turning it over right off the bat

We need to clamp down

and go on a 7-0 run.

continues to absolutely baffling decision-making by the ballhandlers today. Open look for 3? Nah. Let’s fire a missile into a group of bodies instead.

Something must pay for the weakness of this game.

At least we are burning some clock on offense

rather than turning it over instantly on offense. Just need another stop or two

Yeah what is he doing?

Oh well, he is likely rusty. He has been up and down today but did make some good entry passes to the post and kept the ball moving. Had a good calming effect on the offense, at times.

goes over 20 pts. in a game for the first time in his career at KU.

Crazy what expectations do

Last year if we had played like this and had been winning by 15 at this point in the game I would’ve been thrilled because I had no expectations. This year I’m expecting to run people out of the gym by halftime and get frustrated when the lead isn’t in the 20’s.

Oh my god I’ve become a Kentucky fan.

Bizarre turnaround from last year

that the Morri are now the most consistent performers on the team.

by hunter s. royal on Dec 19, 2009 1:08 PM CST reply actions  

The Morri make quick moves to the basket when getting the ball in the post

While Cole just sits there. I think thats a huge difference, Cole just needs to grab it and look to score instantly, or draw the double team then hit an open shooter for the trey

Watching La Salle and Bucknell

for a minute. There’s no score on the bottom and the announcer is out of his mind.

This game has been intense so far

Both teams have come out really high strung and pressing too much. Hopefully it settles into a nice flow here in about 2-3 minutes.
