If Kansas comes out in the second half with the same stagnant offense....my god someone needs their head checked. I can't see there being a case made that sticking with it is the right idea. Anyone?

Really ? Size and position not similar, ability to defend, personality, bball iq etc. passive team based approach versus aggressive..

Not saying those are actual but have hard time with concept that only thing in common is long arms....

Good, Kansas offense looks different. They're running curls and ball screens.

Wiggins looks good whenever the offense isn't making him stand around and do nothing. Still don't like his hop step finishes in the paint, not enough proper penetration to the basket.

I think even defensive style is different, Barnes relies heavily on footwork while wiggy uses his length and lateral quickness and better hands ..I say Barnes has more aggressive mentality in a sense he wants to take that big shot..not really passive either but wiggy has the "wants to guard that best guy" mentality but plays more of a laid back approach on O.

KU's offense is a complete mess when Embiid doesn't touch the ball right now.

Colorado offense is so much better than Kansas offense. Nice to see Kansas decided to change it up a bit, but they need to keep running those curls and ball screens. Their inside/out won't work when players can't make outside shots.
