I’d also argue that the bullshit charges on Harris (particularly the one at the end of the 1st half that led him to sit for four minutes which cost us about 6 points) had a much larger impact on the game than the one on Timberlake. |

The guy with the block has a legitimate gripe. Harris' gripe is a bigger one IMO. I'm not sure the guy has 3 charges in his whole ****ing career. |

Where is the scouting report telling us how Gonzaga is about to mop the floor with these scrubs?

If there was ever a Gonzaga team that KU could handle, this is the one. Easily the worst Gonzaga team in nearly a decade, the Bulldogs struggled for the majority of the season and did not even look like a tournament team until mid-February. In fact, their only good wins all season consisted of Kentucky (Calipari-led fraud) and a St. Mary's team eliminated tonight in the tournament by Grand Canyon.
While they are generally a strong offense, they generate FTs at an incredibly low rate (31.4 FTA/FGA, 224th in the country). Most importantly for us, they also shoot a very low amount of threes comparatively (31.5 3PA/FGA, 310th in the country) and start a big who doesn't shoot any. Given that KU has had a season long issue with guarding the 3 due largely to Dickinson's mobility (which popped up again against Samford), we couldn't ask for much more out of this matchup. On defense, Gonzaga could not be much softer. They turn teams over at a very low clip (16.2 TO%, 235th in the country) and their non-steal turnover rate is among the lowest in the country (6.4%, 326th in the country). They also don't have a shot blocking presence for significant portions of the game which will allow KU to get to the rim at will. Unlike Samford, they also foul at a very low rate which should be helpful for preventing any of our starters from getting into foul trouble. While they are better than Samford, this is about as good of a matchup in R2 as we could have hoped for. Gonzaga is simply not equipped to deal with a KU team firing on all cylinders. Get ready for the S16. |

KCC, I’m not reading your soliloquy, but I did want your take on Gradey Dick as a pro.
Since you’re a Rap fan, it looks like he’s really starting to figure it out as a pro. That G League stint worked wonders apparently. Thoughts? |

He’s going to be a good player in the league for a decade+. Will be an elite shooter/spacer with a high IQ for the game. I think Kyle Korver is a realistic comp for him. His defense and handles will probably hold him back from being a star (and turning into somebody like Klay Thompson) but time is on his side to see if he can improve those areas.

Luckily for Dick, he plays a league that appreciates that style of play much more than the league Korver played in. |
