Yo, Chandler haters...

KC broke it open and just generally dominated again tonight.

17 points on 9 shots, 6 assists with 0 turnovers, 5 rebounds and 4-4 from the FT line. Plus his normal great defense.

 

[volsack7]

KC, ZZ and SV are such a joy to watch. They play as hard as any guards we’ve ever seen here. And such great chemistry.

 

[vols1071]

He legit has some of the best numbers as all Fr pgs and we agree he hasn't played his best at times... Tonight was legit! Not the best fit in a Barnes offense to showcase his talents but he is a solid 1st rounder

Totally different player than the one that showed up Saturday against Vandy. Good timing.

Also a good lesson for any morons calling for his head after that performance on Saturday.

Everyone has an off game so anyone doing that is silly. And he woke up the last 3-4 minutes just in time to put the game away. Tonight he got us going. We’re really lucky to have 2 excellent PGs.

0 turnovers and 100% FTs is what I love. He controlled the game and played as clean as you could ask. Best game he’s played to date imo.

Our backcourt is

Good guard play wins in March. We might have the best backcourt in the country with ZZ, KC and SV.

Man, what would y'all give to have KC for one more season? Could be a ridiculous backcourt.

How much NIL monies you got, Doc?

 

[cardvolfan]

Chandler is an incredible talent, and he showed why tonight, both offensively and defensively. Fulkerson is picking up steam. ZZ is getting better and better, not to mention Vescovi and James. These guys are for real and will only continue to get better. Aidoo was flat out impressive for an inexperienced player against top-level talent. Whew!

 

[Namorto1]

Chandler can be great. He set tempo early and also defended well the entire game. I think we went away from him too much late in 1st half when he was on. Still, you have to give it up to Ziegler. He is becoming our most important player. Hit timely big shots in 2nd half and was a pain in the butt defensively all game long with 4 steals.

My left nut. Maybe my left arm, too. JK…..or am I?

Chandler was incredible tonight. Dominat, confident, veteran-like performance. You could argue his spark in the early first half set the tone and changed the game.

Yeah, I’ve made one or two heat of the moment emotional comments in game threads this season about a mistake he might have made here or there that I obviously regret, but damn I’m not sure how much better he could play right now.

Here’s to hoping he can close out his one year in orange by taking us somewhere we’ve never been before. Cement your legend young man.

 

[JoAllan]

I mean to be fair he’s only had 12 games in his college career where he’s scored 15 or more points. And only had 12 games when he’s had 5 or more assists.

PSH……..that’s nothing.


So says fans with ZERO knowledge.

Couple years under Barnes ZZ will be a draft pick also. At times ZZ has been our best player on the court. We gonna miss Chandler when he is gone. He is a special talent and will be top 15-20 pick in next years draft.

Zakai is the best thing that could have happened to Chandler. Those two are a whole vibe !

Yep. Barnes talked about bringing ZZ in for that very purpose.

Chandler should fund an NIL for ZZZ after he gets drafted. ZZZ has provided the type of competition KC needed to reach his potential and has made him a lot of $.

I have to say, Chandler showed why he is to be a one and done, and I have noted before that he does some things that he shouldn't, turnovers being the biggest issue. Tonight he showed out. As bad as it was, I think the blowout in Lexington may have been what it took to wake this team up. The way they have played since then is nothing short of amazing. Crisp passing, movement on defense, as well as not being statues on offense has them playing the way they should.

Turnovers have been an issue, but there are juniors and seniors all across basketball who are good and have committed way more turnovers.
