*** Sweet Sixteen: Friday games thread ***

Brunson is legit incredible

 

[Turinturumbar]

I watched a little, looked like Clemson was throwing the ball away carelessly a bit.

We’ve been playing good defense but they’ve gotten careless a few times. They’ve missed some open looks but they’ve also hit a few they had no business hitting....it’s been weird/.

 

[Turinturumbar]

Clemson just needs to hack Dok every time he touches the ball. So long as they’ve got fouls to give.

 

[RockChalkRally]

Man Vick is playing with some big time confidence!

 

[RockChalkRally]

F**K YEAH BABY!!!!

 

[Turinturumbar]

That had to have felt good for Graham to see that one go down. His shot has been way off the last two games.

 

[speedfrk]

Kansas looks good even with graham slumping

Couldn't agree more! That looked good right out of his hand.

 

[doogie503]

Jay Wright looks baffled in his interview... like he's never seen anything like our pressure or physicality.... but they're still up 2.

Not sure how to feel about that.

 

[RockChalkRally]

Kansas looks good even with graham slumping

Hopefully seeing that shot go down for Graham will be a tipping point getting him out of his slump. He's doing everything else right though.

 

[Turinturumbar]

Svi was pushed

 

[RockChalkRally]

Looked like a charge to me.

 

[coryfly]

Looked like a charge to me.

Yeah, seem like he lead with the shoulder right into him.

 

[Turinturumbar]

Devoe is the only reason KU isn’t up 30+. He is hitting tough shot after tough shot.

 

[coryfly]

Clemson getting a pretty nice whistle here as they have initiated all the contact on both of the fouls on Graham.

 

[coryfly]

Devoe is the only reason KU isn’t up 30+. He is hitting tough shot after tough shot.

He is a good player.

 

[jhmossy]

I watched A LOT of ACC basketball this year and I honestly don’t remember DeVoe being this good. I know he exploded every now and then but dude is showing the whole arsenal in this tourney

 

[RockChalkRally]

Now that was one of those times where Graham would've been better off giving up the layup. Instead he picked up his 3rd foul.

 

[Turinturumbar]

Yeah, seem like he lead with the shoulder right into him.

Yeah these calls are going against us right now. Just the way it is. We gotta keep playing tough.

 

[coryfly]

I think he had a really good game against us at their place but think everyone on their team did, lol.

As a KU fan I’m used to this. In the tourney there is always one guy who goes mental against us. Luckily the rest of the team is missing/.

 

[toonces11]

How do they count that

Hopefully seeing that shot go down for Graham will be a tipping point getting him out of his slump. He's doing everything else right though.

nope. Still playing like a boner.

 

[mtronce]

Gillispie needs to slow down. 3 TO vs wvu pressure. Brunson dominating and up 2 w/o bridges last ten.

Like novas chances

 

[IZAC]

Graham getting two fouls on horse shit calls sucks.

 

[RockChalkRally]

The dude can shoot from the short time I've seen him. It's one thing to hit the open shot but he's hitting heavily contested shots in bunches as well.

 

[jhmossy]

I think he had a really good game against us at their place but think everyone on their team did, lol.

I guess no one on their team had a good game against us in the regular season. It was Thomas who was effective in the ACC tourney game. R

 

[coryfly]

Yeah these calls are going against us right now. Just the way it is. We gotta keep playing tough.

You are right but that is two calls on your best player to give him 3 fouls and neither of them were legit. That's really tough.

 

[coryfly]

Clemson just keeps ramming themselves into KU players, lol.

 

[RockChalkRally]

Is it just me or did the whistle come way before the actual foul?

 

[toonces11]

How many times is Thomas going to go to that trash ass left hand.

 

[Turinturumbar]

He is a good player.

But this good?

 

[jhmossy]

But this good?

No. He’s playing above his head but he’s now trying to do too much

 

[coryfly]

Clemson has some really nice pieces and are more than capable when they all play well. They can't really afford to have a guy be off though, not against a team as good as KU. They would be really good if Grantham hasn't gotten hurt.

 

[RockChalkRally]

Terrific play by DeSousa!

 

[doogie503]

Got a bad feeling about this 2nd half.

Nova was really rattled by the pressure, but they're still up 2. Great coach and veteran players.... they'll adjust.

 

[Turinturumbar]

The dude can shoot from the short time I've seen him. It's one thing to hit the open shot but he's hitting heavily contested shots in bunches as well.

Ironically his misses have been relatively open looks. But put a guy in his face and he can’t miss.

You guys will be ok. They just need to keep the foot on the pedal.

 

[coryfly]

But this good?

No but he can score in bunches at times.

 

[RockChalkRally]

Ironically his misses have been relatively open looks. But put a guy in his face and he can’t miss.

The scary thing is without half of his production tonight Clemson would be waving the white flag by now. That said, there's still a lot of time and Clemson keeps trying to make a push.

Also not sure you’ll shoot as well as you did or get to the line as much as you did. WVU has more heart than anyone though so they’ll be in it until the end
