As others have mentioned, having Sam outside of the bucket passing and playing 5 out will be the key to this game, especially if we can come out hot quick. I think then Self will scrap any zone they might start off with and go man-man defensively. That will allow our cuts and excellent passers to carve up the Jayhawks defense. We must stay on Remy Martin and make the game difficult for him. We get our “normal” 11 steals in this game and get out in transition for easy buckets that 500lb gorilla on Kansas’s back will get heavier and heavier as the game wears on. We’ve managed to jump out to leads early, I’d love to see us do so again tomorrow afternoon. The more we lead, or keep it really close, the more that gorilla will weigh on Self and his team. They’re the only #1 seed remaining, everyone in the media and on last nights recap show are picking Kansas in an easy victory tomorrow. I would love nothing more than to blow them out but that’s not going to be realistic. If Coach L can create another masterpiece of a game plan and the kids can execute it to the high level they’ve been doing it at, we’ll see our Canes in New Orleans next Saturday night.
