Durham was not set. He was moving at the point of contact. It was not a charge. [Reply]

He is doing his thing. He's just not doing it as well anymore. [Reply]

Let Remy do his thing or we are losing this game. Easiest path to the final 4 in forever and we are blowing it. Go with what’s been working. Step up the D and let Remy go. [Reply]

You dont and shouldn't need to be set to take a charge. Thats just something slow white ppl say. You need to be established in legal guarding position.
Anyway - this game is an example as to why so many of us were nervous after being up 9 in the 1st half. This offensive looks completely out of sorts and Providence shot 1 for 13 from 3 in the first half. That isn't sustainable. [Reply]

There's nothing established about a player sliding into a guy while driving. [Reply]

True, but looks like their would be some sort of screens called together open? All night, KU has too many guys just standing around, one guy trying to create. Don’t see many set plays called all night. [Reply]
