apparently...

...the line is falling fast, and completely without explanation.  Very strange.  Maybe Beasley got suspended and nobody told us...uh huh...

I'm without video

Lame...

This one could get ugly though. Beasley is a good as advertised and I doubt K-State will jack up triples like Big Red.

Just a side note, when I saw/covered Beasley over the summer at the Global Games, coach Jerry Wainwright said the following:

"He's a great young talent, and the sky's the limit," Wainwright said. "He's got an unorthodox game, but as he disciplines himself, he's going to become just a great young player.

The man wasn't kidding.

Brown and Lyons

reinstated and WILL play against K-State.

Not sure what impact Brown would have, but if "Good Leo" shows up, this could be a big boost in the "help keep it competitive early" department.

I blink

and K-State is up 4-0.

by RPT on Feb 2, 2008 12:51 PM CST reply actions  

M-Law responds with a 3

Only to have K-State run the floor and get 2 more

by RPT on Feb 2, 2008 12:51 PM CST up reply actions  

Just got video

Nice D leading to shot clock violation... MU down 18-13 early.

Rebounding

I hear it's good for teams.

Sad to see "recklessly drive and stumble and throw up a strong prayer" Leo show up.

Getting killed inside

Offense revolving around perimeter...

Baylor mauling Texas

Is there a division in college basketball harder to figure out than the Big 12 South?

by RPT on Feb 2, 2008 1:17 PM CST reply actions  

Can we suspend...

Matt Lawrence for the way he assaults the rim with missed threes?

by RPT on Feb 2, 2008 1:26 PM CST reply actions  

Not sure what to say

Is Mizzou in this game or not?

by RPT on Feb 2, 2008 1:43 PM CST reply actions  

Early 2nd half observations
  • Love what Tiller brings
  • Defense keying on Beasley and doing so with some effectiveness
  • Seeing how vital Carroll is to success of this team
  • Volkus loves that 10-12 foot spot left of the basket
  • Mizzou ball movement always seems solid out of timeouts, but questionable on the fly

by RPT on Feb 2, 2008 2:02 PM CST reply actions  

2nd chance bucket by Carroll

gets MU within eight and gets crowd back in game.

Young immediately gets to line on other side of floor.

by RPT on Feb 2, 2008 2:07 PM CST reply actions  

K-State coming unraveled

MU within five as crowd goes nuts before TV timeout.

Can the patchwork Tigers keep their heads about them?

by RPT on Feb 2, 2008 2:09 PM CST reply actions  

Walker charges, has 4 fouls

To describe the floor right now:

ENERGY ENERGY ENERGY ENERGY ENERGY ENERGY ENERGY ENERGY ENERGY ENERGY ENERGY ENERGY ENERGY ENERGY ENERGY ENERGY ENERGY ENERGY ENERGY ENERGY ENERGY ENERGY

by RPT on Feb 2, 2008 2:15 PM CST reply actions  

Two plays

Back-to-back, that may have just iced the game.

  1. Stewart buries three to put KSU up 7
  1. Tiller responds by getting called for charging at the other end

Energy? Dwindling...

by RPT on Feb 2, 2008 2:16 PM CST reply actions  

MU back within two

as camera cuts to Beasley trying to figure out what the hell is going on.

by RPT on Feb 2, 2008 2:23 PM CST reply actions  

Beasley picks up 4th foul

And Carroll ties it up at 72 on next possession following a reckless shot from Leo (who drew the foul)

by RPT on Feb 2, 2008 2:36 PM CST reply actions  

J.T. F*ING TILLER!!!!

Love the kid.

His face after the bucket and the foul says EVERYTHING right now.

by RPT on Feb 2, 2008 2:36 PM CST reply actions  

Shot Clock Violation on KSU

MU ball up 3.

Crowd firing up the "M-I-Z" during the timeout.

by RPT on Feb 2, 2008 2:40 PM CST reply actions  

Wow

Remember that whole "no go-to guy during clutch situations" thing?

Welcome back. KSU ball with shot clock off, down one, following an offensive possession where no one could get open and the entire unit looked discombobulated. What's nuts is that Lyons nearly converted on a horrid opportunity.

by RPT on Feb 2, 2008 2:43 PM CST reply actions  

POSSESSION ARROW!!!

Matt Lawrence with a partial block and rebound/tie-up to give MU ball with 6 seconds left?

What kind of world are we living in?

by RPT on Feb 2, 2008 2:44 PM CST reply actions  

Tiller to the line

Played well beyond his years today. Needs to do so here.

by RPT on Feb 2, 2008 2:47 PM CST reply actions  

77-74, Mizzou wins!

What the HELL just happened?

1,000,000 cocktails to you J.T. Tiller, and to you, Mike Anderson. Football-style handshakes to the Missouri Tigers for this effort.

And for anyone who called this, drop me an email, I want to go to Vegas with you.

by RPT on Feb 2, 2008 2:52 PM CST reply actions  

one of these days...

...we should choose the same game to hang out in comments...
