It must be terribly frustrating to be a UT fan against this KU team. You can shoot the lights out, and KU can miss everything including layups, and KU is still likely to come on top.
RM95 was right. This team is a young team that's getting tons better. The game they played in Larence a week ago convinced me they were ready for the Tourney.
Overtime....not sure if i would have rather us lose in regulation just cause of fatigue....i really hope we play friday and not thursday...what a game... hook em
A Thursday morning game would suck. Hopefully we play Friday evening. This is horrible, especially when you can see they are all exhausted already. Only good thing is all of KU's best players have 4 fouls.
I cant believe they gave it to Winder for those last 2 freethrows when coach specifically said not to. He could have at least passed it right back to Durant instead of dribbling and drawing an obviously coming foul. Of course he bricks the first freethrow to keep it a one possession game... way to go Winder. Amazing. Kansas is a great team but we really gave this one away at the line at the end of regulation. Oh well, hopefully we'll see some more intense games in the coming weeks.
Lost the game. Just had that feeling as soon as Winder got the ball - we went 20 seconds into the clock without letting Winder/James touch it, and then Durant went away from that strategy. Then James missing both of his in OT and even Abrams missing one -- if we had one of those 3 go in, the nature of the game in the last minute is different. Hopefully, this was a good lesson in late game execution that we can now carry into the tourney.
It may have ruined the chemistry of this years team and stifled Durant's coming out party. I think it all worked out for the best.
