    Gat damn this thread has me hungry now. Think the wife and I are going to do some Easter gumbo. 

    Thanks again for the Easter gumbo idea. It hit the spot. I'd rep your post twice if I could.

  2. Definitely. We're great at home, horrible on the road, so any first-round series is gonna be a toss-up, imo. At least the team has put that 3-11 stretch behind.

    I honestly don't understand wtf is going on with Kawhi. Starting to get the feeling he is not the person we all thought he was, but hope that is just hand-wringing from a feckless fan.

    That game was over when it was 9-2. They did everything perfect from beyond the arc on both sides of the court. We did everything wrong from beyond the arc including defense, not shooting the ball, screens.... everything.  

    Clearly our strategy was to try and get the ball inside and draw some early fouls on the big three point shooter. Once that guy hit his first 2 threes our plan was nullified and we had no other thoughts. 

    Surprisingly, even though we lost by 16 we scored 79 which is enough to win in the final four. If they would have had an off shooting night (or even only made 35%) that game could have been a whole lot different.  Can’t expect them to shoot lay number though if you don’t guard the line. 

    Good game, pretty good officiating, great season for the hawks. 

    Solid post.

    Defense had been KU's weakness all season, whereas 'Nova is probably the most balanced team in basketball. Y'all would've needed to shoot 50-60 percent from BTA to win, imo. Instead, the Wildcats were the ones who couldn't miss.

    Congrats on a great season. KU won the Big 12, the conference tourney, and reached the Final Four with what I considered to be one of its weaker teams. True, there was a lot of parity and the overall field was weaker, but it's still a testament to Self's excellence.

  4. I was gonna try and make the argument that you'd rather not see San Antonio until the WCF, but Los eSpurs are so broken right now, no doubt you're salivating at the prospects of a second-round matchup (and that's if SA even gets past the first round, which I'm very much doubting).
