All I’m saying is the last time Brad was posting NCAA tourney videos, Marquette was in an elite 8

That section toward the corner has a great view of the end zone seats.  Spectators really need to crane their necks!

Nice catch.  That’s his specialty!

He has some of the most thunderous missed dunks ever in an MU uniform.  Funny to see it in a practice with nobody guarding him.  Even funnier that a few seconds later he rebounded an OMax dunk, and tried again to make sure there wasn't something wrong with the rim.

Kur and OMax go back and forth on leading the nation on thunderous missed dunks.

I love that Shaka pushes his guys to dunk the damn ball.  No weak stuff around the rim with his guys...going to miss some dunks...but it beats the alternative.

I agree, but they didn’t do that at the end of the 2nd Creighton game.  It just shows you that as good Shaka’s coaching might be, the guys don’t always follow through on the court.  It was a really fun watch today.  I enjoyed seeing Shaka’s energy on the floor.  He’s indefatigable!

But Kur had a number of snap/kaboom dunks early in the season.  What happened?

Kur also had a ton of missed dunks at the beginning of the season. I specifically remember posts along the lines of "Kur must make those in practice because they keep lobbing it to him."

Kur also had a bunch of kaboom dunks just a few games ago. I think the dude is just inconsistent

I think he has bad hands.  The ball needs to be in just the right spot for him to grasp and control the ball.

I was there for the entire practice and Kam certainly stood out.  Justin looked good too.  I did not see the big guys work the area around the elbows.  MU needs a big guy next year that can take a jumper from ten to 15 feet or back a guy down and hit a short fadeaway.  Our two bigs do not have that in their respective arsenals this year.

The team overall seemed to be getting used to the baskets and hitting its shots at a nice rate from the outside.  Carolina was also connecting at a nice clip from beyond the arc during its session.  I hope we get a quality, competitive game.  You never know how things are going to unfold when you are on the court against the opponent.

If Kur was a WR we'd be talking about his numerous dropped passes.  He just does not have good, strong hands.  I often thought during practice yesterday - I wonder how often these guys work on their weaknesses back on campus?  Kur should be catching hundreds of balls a day at different speeds and locations.

I am a big fan of Kur's, but he has many things that he can be working on during the offseason and practice. IMO, we have gotten a lot of a guy that is extremely raw. That said, I am counting on him to play big today.

We have Kur for one reason. I may be in the minority here, bur im not concerned with how or if Kur improves this off season. We need him today.
