2023-24 Houston Cougars Basketball Season

Agree it’s an exhibition game but my simple mind says that Roberts with zero shots is foreshadowing how he may perform against better B12 front lines. It’s a continuation of his struggle against Miami in the NCAA Tournament.

Not alarming, but concerning.

Also, to piggyback off pesik.

Kansas didn’t lose by 25+

It matters that we have weaknesses that we want addressed.

Agree. Australia has 10 NBA players!

Lots of G5 Memphis fans lashing out at us in the comments because SMU stealing their ACC spot. They are some strange cats

Having those “weaknesses addressed” would have done little to change the outcome of the Australia game. Getting routed by a team with 10 NBA caliber players doesn’t mean we’re going to get run out the gym by a Kansas team that barely beat a team ranked 50+ sports lower with 1 NBA caliber player who only played one half.

Anybody “concerned” about last night’s game is - no other way to say this but - FOOLISH.

I watch NBA every night. I play in THREE separate, daily fantasy basketball leagues, having the NBA League Pass on FireStick. Matisse Thybulle is one of the BEST defenders in all the league. He was that highly regarded a defender his one year at the U of Washington. And he hasn’t disappointed as a pro. I had Giddey on one of my teams. He avg’d over 16-7-6 his second yr in the league and jumped his FG% from 41 to 48% in year two. A stud whose arrow is only pointing UP. Jock Landale would runs circles around Hunter Dickinson. I watched him with PHX and even picked him up once or twice last year. Shead and LJ can only HOPE to become as talented as Dante Exum(injuries).

JoJo and Jacob just graduated HS 60 days ago and now they’re facing PROS…along with their teammates.

And the craziest thing is this…yes…they provided a box score…but NONE of ya’ll saw a blip of the game, and have offered so many opinions based on a BLANK box score.

Man, ya’ll are CERTIFIED crazy and full of paranoia. It’s pathetic to “live” like many of ya’ll do. If the shoe fits, man make sure you snuggle that summmabish on TIGHT!

And Pesik…will all due respect, you are the ringleader. You went and “researched” the game 1 opponent to then put on your SCOUT CAP afterwards? Man…stop. (But you won’t)

CKS is using this to build team chemistry and learn more about his 2023-24 team, and to give these kids lifelong memories that they may not get otherwise.

But ya’ll carry BACK on grating your collective “tooths” behind AUGUST SCRIMMAGES half way across the world.

Oh…and FUDGE Hunter Dickinson, Bill Self, AND Kansas!! They haven’t earned a damn thing on August 9, 2023!! (Insert Dennis Green "crown their ass GIF here)

I agree that there isn’t a need for concern after playing pros. But there isn’t a need to call us pathetic, crazy, and sad. Why do you always seem angry Nate?

Just saying if you don’t like “eat our own” maybe ease up on it
