SDST thoughts

Perry and Cam cannot be denied. RJ breaks out. Ames with 7 assists, Cam with 6 and Perry with 5. This is the best collection of guards I've seen at K-State ever.
Thank goodness we picked up McNair. Rich had some minutes.
Still a work in progress on D. Looks like our guards should be better at on-ball pressure.
Was Kaluma injured or getting sent a message?

Jones, Ames, Costello, Rich, Manning  are and whoever else are going to be very, very Naty contender good.

I had the game on in the background but never really paid attention but it seemed like we made alot of three point shots tonight so that's good!

I didn't think that Perry would be the shooter that Nowell was but I think I might be wrong on that. He won't have Markquis' range but he's probably going to shoot a higher percentage.

Cam Carter is a completely different player, doesn't look the same, doesn't play the same.

His range is pretty good though. He made two from deep beyond the side of the key, at least 30 footers.

If/when Kaluma buys in, and Tomlin returns, it will be really interesting to see our rotations.

Will McNair has been a very pleasant surprise.

Watched the game this morning. Man, these guys are going to be incredible. Laying some cash on Big XII season champs at 21-1.

With Dai Dai, RJ, and Buddy, we have some wildly entertaining bb ahead of us for several years.

In the post game, Tang said that RJ is an amazing shooter and that he thinks RJ will go down as one of the best shooters ever at KSU.  Kid is a frosh and only a few games in, but that is a bold statement and makes me pretty excited that Tang thinks he sees that.

I agree that Cam is a completely different player.  He was shaky on offense last year.  He is so smooth on offense this year.  He is very good

N'Guessan looks really good too.

We're going to have so many backdoor cut dunkshots this year.

They're also going to have to replace the rims/backboards multiple times as long as Buddy Rich is with the program.

N'Guessan is really good when he's aggressive. When he backs off he looks like a baby deer.

Buddy Rich is an awesome name for a basketball player (or any person for that matter). We have so many awesome names on the roster. My kids are especially fond of Dorian Finister.

A moniker bringing to mind a stuffed kangaroo is in no way a raise to the awesomeness of a name fit for character in the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.

I really liked the dunkshot at the end of the game. I hope we keep doing that a lot this season because it's a good play.

Making a lot of 3s and dunks is a fun offense.

We’re athletic and fun, and will prob be pretty good. How good? Dunno.

It’s nice to have a fun coach and fun players and play an enjoyable style of basketball. Cat hoops has good energy and is fun to follow and root for. Can’t ask for more.
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

My preference is

Dai Dai - 6'1
Perry - 5'11
Carter - 6'3
RJ - 6'3
Tomlin

It's a good thing we'd never miss a shot so we'd never need an offensive rebound, but the other team will get to shoot it until they make it.

If/when Tomlin is back, I think I would rather have McNair in than Kaluma.

David is clearly my guy, with RJ as clearly his backup when David leaves but "I'm putting cases on all you bitches" for these terrible Kaluma takes. He's going to start and he's going to be one of the best players on this team and in the league.

I sincerely hope you're right.
