The fundamental belief that teams shoot out their A$$ vs KU is not an accurate representation of how things are.
This team for two seasons can’t defend the 3 in long stretches. They have worsened with on ball defense. Self hasn’t been able to improve Hunters agility and recognition. They then just run around out there lost and end up leaving shooters wide open. It isn’t just Hunter. Harris gets lost, Mayo is navigating things like Helen Keller in a Naked and Afraid competition. KJ increasingly over rotates bc of the breakdowns and he goes for steals vs just staying in front of guys. And then the 5th starter…FVCK
Don’t go spout defensive stats, KU is fools gold on paper
