He was unbelievably good the 2 games before that. He would not let his team lose. I cannot criticize him for the last game. Kansas face guarded him and set up their defense to stop him. He had a great tournament and should not be criticized.

Yeah and I agree with this because again I put a lot of onus on the coach to recognize what's happening and help his kids to help themselves. I don't think I've seen more forced shot attempts in a college game than Love last night - at one point he was trying so hard (not a bad thing) he was just throwing himself at the hoop and shooting any low percentage 3 he could get off - it was hard to watch even as a completely neutral fan. This is where the old "stay aggressive/have a short memory" cliché simply falls flat - this mindset has a lot of nuances that only come with age and experience.

"But kids will do this - I thought Hubie Davis was terrible that second half, he looked like a total deer in the headlights with no clue of what to do. When he saw this trend developing he should have taken time, pulled the team together and specifically Love and changed the course of what was happening."

IT'S SO EASY! Yeah, call time, pull them together, change the course. That's it. Just do that coaches.

Exactly. It’s a lot easier to make adjustments at halftime then during a couple brief timeouts, and even at halftime it can be hard. If it were so easy to adjust on the fly, Kansas would have adjusted in the first half, and not been down 15 points.

Some people on this thread don't realize that most universities have done "crooked things" Wether it be academics or excluding certain people from enrolling. I ran D1 and that rabbit whole is bottomless

As bad as Love was on the offensive end, Manek was really letting them down on the defensive end and on the boards in the second half.

I think he must have been completely gassed because it's unlike him, but there were baskets that he barely contested, and rebounds he lost where he had a dazed expression.

The one block he got, he blocked it with his tricep, which just shows he was out of it, jumping into the sky to block a point guard who hadn't even leapt

Then finally, on the last play, he trips and falls as he was running open.

Don't know if I can blame him too much. Coach should have seen this deterioration coming and given him a couple minutes rest with about ten minutes to go

And KU was just way better than NC.

So much better that they won by 3 points?

0/10

I wouldn't be surprised if he was playing concussed. He took one heck a shot to the noggin in the first half.

5 for 24

He missed 19 shots in a 3 point loss.

Agree. UNC wasn't supposed to be in the final...they aren't that great of a team this year.

With your spelling abilities, you must have gone to a bad D1 school. Oregon, maybe?
