Well that game won’t exactly go in any museums. Kansas played what likely will be its worst offensive game of the year, scoring .93 points per possession. Needless to say, Kentucky was even worse offensively, scoring just .87 points per trip. Still, I think the Jayhawks aren’t getting enough credit for toughing the game out and winning a game in which they played horribly, and also for the number of open looks they were able to generate, even against Kentucky’s length. In the first half, the Jayhawks were able to get to the rim somewhat at will, but had trouble finishing over Kentucky’s length.
