I. Moss update

[dahlhawk]

Who,gives a shit.. !!!

That's what I say, but posters are still acting like we missed out on something, just showing the whole picture not just "hey he scored 17 pts." I say WTFCs myself, doesn't play for my team, so stop posting about him. Right!

Moss today vs West Virginia - 7 minutes, 0-2 (both from three), 1 rebound

Kansas wins 60-53 at home.

 

[mopkins]

Moss is having a hell of a 1st half vs #4 Baylor. 10 points on 4-5 shooting. Streaky dude for sure

 

[PCHawk]

I haven't rooted this hard for Kansas to lose since LaFrentz went there.

 

[PCHawk]

Turns out Moss might be developing better at Kansas after all. I just saw him dribble 3 straight times without turning it over.

 

[mopkins]

Moss went ice ass cold in the second half and Kansas got thumped at home. Classic

 

[HawkGold]

Moss last 2 games. 68 minutes. 35 points. 5 rebounds 2 asst's.

Watching a little bit of Kansas @ Texas. Kansas plays really Selfish. If Moss is gonna do anything, he's gonna have to be Selfish like his teammates.

He’s playing the same number of minutes, but his win-shares and box plus/minus are both higher on the offensive and defensive side.

In other words he’s statistically (not just gut feel) more important to Kansas’ team than he was to Iowa. The reasons are academic and don’t matter, but it’s the truth. Moss is contributing more to Kansas, and judging by the team we have this year, he probably wouldn’t be doing so if he stayed at Iowa. I’m neutral except for the fact that Fran put a lot of time and effort into the guy for him to bounce. Stats mentioned earlier below...

He also isn't shooting as many stupid mid range or toe on the line jumpers. His 3pt attempt rate is sitting at over 68% with KU while it was around 40% at Iowa. That helps the advanced shooting stats immensely. Case in point. He's posting his best TS% and EFG% of his career while also shooting his worst percentage from 3. Shoot more 3s than mid range and the analytics say your performance is much much better even with a slightly diminished shooting percentage.

I used to play in an old mans league with a lights out old dude. The guy shot with his foot on the line all the time. The obvious reason was there wasn't even a line back in his day. What the hell was Moss's excuse? That drove me batty.

Losing Moss was no loss at all. Evelyn is a better player and a better kid, IMHO.

Lol what

 

[trj]

At this point I just shrug my shoulders at this. It is a win-win for everybody. It is rare that it works out like this.

Based on? Come on that's not necessary and I doubt you know either of them.

I wanted to say more loyal maybe. But then I remembered.....
