Re: Rundown of Jayhawks in the NBA

Would love if this could be a once a week type thread. It would get tedious every day or so, but once a week or two, could really be pretty helpful.

I think shady and brandon will have big years. Shadys looked the best he ever has in the league and brandons about to go ham once he gets on the court

Re: Rundown of Jayhawks in the NBA

Re: Rundown of Jayhawks in the NBA

I was at the Mavs vs. Memphis game Friday and I thought Shady looked really impressive. He was checking Dirk most of his minutes and was competitive. X seemed to have a decent grasp of the offense and fit in well with Mayo, Gay, Shady, Conley, etc. They have an athletic, young team and could be a force.

Note about my reviews re: X and Shady, I was hammered drunk at the game. I tried to snap some shots, but they are way worse than I thought. Maybe I'll post them anyway.

Sherron got his first time last night. 4 minutes and 2 assists. Not much, but at least he's making it on the floor.

Re: Rundown of Jayhawks in the NBA

Mario Chalmers is the one to watch, which is tough when he's passing to Wade, James and Bosh. Part of me says that team succeeds or fails depending on how Chalmers plays.
