Nova is another team with 0 real shot blockers. Kansas has 3 players who would’ve lead that team in blocked shots.
They already played a short bench, but now they’re down their second best player. We should have a huge advantage attacking the basket. They don’t block shots AND they really can’t afford any foul trouble. |

Obviously, they’re still really good and really well coached. They won’t be a pushover for anyone. That said, those injuries on a team with a short bench seem like a lot for any team to overcome when playing other good teams. |

That's a good point. I wondered, too, how much that effort by kj pumped up the team as well as maybe deflated Miami just a tiny bit.

Kinda reminded me of a certain recent football game where a team played really well for a half then ****ed up around the goal line and ran out the clock before kicking a field goal.

Lightfoot leads Kansas in personal fouls at 2.3 per game. 3 Nova players average at least that many (Slater, Samuels, and Daniels). Moore actually averaged the fewest fouls of any of their 6 man rotation. That probably also explains why he was able to lead the team in minutes played. |

This disrespect Kansas is getting right now by ESPN & Sportscenter is unbelievable.
Last night Duke led Sportscenter. Tonight it's North Carolina beating a ****ING #15 SEED. They talked about it for 10 minutes. Had CBB analysts talk about the game. Nothing about KU at all then they went to WOMENS BBALL highlights and analysis. Then Kyrie Irvings first game back after being allowed to play unvaxxed. Then onto LeBron losing a regular season game...and then men's soccer. Holy literal ****. |

Correct. I don’t think their bench is ready for this moment. Jay Wright apparently doesn’t trust them in less important games.
I wonder how the refs handle it though. The officiating has been interesting in this tournament, to say the least. Do we think they’ll actually call many fouls on a shorthanded team in a Final Four matchup? I’m skeptical, but we have to try. |

This team shocks the shit out of me. All year they lose focus, so dumb shit, are limited athletically, don’t have the skills to attack teams weaknesses. All that spelled early loss for virtually everyone in this thread. And here we sit. Obviously it’s a favorable draw but we still executed.
We were the only 1 to make it out of the S16. Obviously it’s. A stretch but you could argue that KU was the best, most consistent team this year. No way I’m asserting that, but it’s one way of looking at it. Who would have thought 2 months ago this team would win the big 12, win the big 12 tournament and make a final 4? Not this guy. McCormack has earned a lot of respect from me. Maybe some of it is the injury is good because Self doesn’t think he needs to be the focal point anymore. But the dude is obviously laboring and is making plays. He still gets stoned inside a lot. Especially because he can’t move as well, but the dude is leaving it out there. I think it also says a lot of the quality of bigs in the Big 12. We wanted to go small because the front court couldn’t do shit. Now we’re dominating inside LOL. Watched it from the sprayer again but I couldn’t be happier. |
