Beasley

So how many points does he score tonight?

I am goinG to say 24. I think James does a good job on him.

 

[lnghrn005]

Have to think he will get 30. He's too good offensively. James HAS to play SMART this week. We will need him not only against Beasley but I'm sure he will guard Bill Walker at times too. Focus on shutting everyone else down and throw enough different looks at Beasley to make him have to work for everything. Beasley and Walker did for for 44 and 31 respectively on Saturday and they lost so we'll see which KSU shows up.

was hoping this was about him missing the game with bronchitis or something.

I'm really looking forward to watching him. The (few) KSU games I've watched, I wasn't paying that much attention to him. I will be tonight.

I hope James goes to the basket all night long and gets him in foul trouble. While i do agree that walker could hurt us, We need to slow down one of them.

I guarantee Barnes has a better strategy for defending Beasley and Walker than Drew did on Saturday. How you let 2 guys score 75 of your opponent's 86 points is beyond me. I think we'll use a rotation of James, Atchley and Gary Johnson on Beasley, and Mason, James and Johnson on Walker. Nebraska did a great job of surrounding Beasley, which frustrated him, and subsequently the rest of the team throughout their game.

Yeah I definitely expect Barnes to come up with a scheme to at least slow Beasley and Walker down.

So our starting CB transfered to K-State and switched sports? That's gonna hurt our depth in the secondary...

I can't imagine Atchley guarding Beasley unless there's some rule that requires Beasley to post up. Connor's fast for a 6'10" dude, but Beasley could still catch the ball way out away from the hoop and blow by him.

 

[Fievel121]

Thanks god we have new DC who will be able to cover that weakness

 

[houstonearlers]

Play zone and crowd the middle.

closest thing to Len Bias I have seen = Beasley.

 

[Mr. Longhorn]

I'll admit this is the first time I have seen him play...dude has some serious God given talent and will make some $$$ next year. Having said that...he took A LOT of plays off. I forgot how many times he was the last one back down court for D. i was disappointed in that aspect. Other than that I hope this is the last time we have to play him.
