Jesus Christ we turned it over every other possession. That was a clinic on what not to do on offense. No clue how we are only down 8. First 4 out of half are going to decide the game.
It’s a great play if you know how to actually pass. That’s something our guys can’t do. Holmes is great at making horrible lobs for easy turnovers.
I’d be OK if we’d get away from the lob pass into the post. That play has caused at least 5 turnovers. KU has it scouted….draw something else up
We didnt play particularly good in that half but it didn't feel like we had 0 shot either.
Dont expect a W today but we got a shot

Is it me or does adams get away with shuffling his feet a lot?
Of course an alley-oop dunk is thrilling when it works, and it'll never work if you never try it ... but we need baskets, not highlights. Bigs are getting open and guards are seeing them, just connect and finish and it'll be more effective.
Frustrating first half.
TOs killing us.
Kansas had played like a 1 seed and we’re right there with them but the gd TOs

KU's defense is effecting the offense, no?
They're applying pressure from another world compared to BU and everything gets harder.
That said the opportunities have been there for better looks and the ball either does everything but goes in or slips out.

I don’t understand why we aren’t prioritizing bully ball. Kansas is small and we’ve had a lot of success with it. Jaren slashing for contested, low-feel floaters is not going to work.
Go get them paint points

Agree. They are making us throw into tight windows. Need to slow it down just a bit and take what is there rather than forcing it.
I told myself the same thing but There is one behind me that is such a moron I would give a pinky toe for a win
Having Kunc in such foul trouble so early hurt us, just with all the little things and intangibles he brings. Got to keep him on the floor in the 2nd half.
