Like bacot I’m not sure how much you can do with a 6’10” guy who lives around the post. At least McCormack has somewhat of an outside came and can create in the post. But the ball game changes when you have nfl bigs who are either bigger or can shoot and force these guys to close out outside shots. [Reply]

None of those players look NBA ready if they were to jump into the league tomorrow.
Congrats to Kansas and their fans, though. They won’t give a shit how it was won.
Thought KU was pretty clutch down the stretch... sure, not like that one NC game (UNC/Nova, maybe?) where it was 3 after 3 after 3 all in the last 30 seconds or like watching an NBA game, but they shot nearly 60% in the 2nd half and knocked down baskets when they needed them down the stretch.
UNC shot 30% in the first half and 30% in the 2nd half (maybe like 34% and 27% or something). [Reply]
