- Buddy Heild is arguably the best player in the country. The last 3 games alone he has gone for 30, 25 and 27 points. Coming back for his senior year was a great decision for himself and a gift to Sooner fans. He is no longer a jump shooter but now a complete player.

- Kruger's switch of Cousins to the point guard and Woodard to the two guard was masterful and it has benefited both players as individuals and greatly improved the offensive flow.

- The Sooners have the nations best starting 5 with Heild, Cousins, Woodard, Spangler and Latin. The bench players are as talented as we've had in all the years I can remember and get better every game.

- The experience of Heild, Woodard, Cousins and Spangler playing together is a huge part of their success. They know exactly what the others are going to do and where they're going to be, and it makes for some really entertaining ball.

Case in point: Don't miss out this season cause its gonna be a special one. It's easy to tune out because the football team has got a shot at the national title, but this squad deserves our support too and it's well worth the watch.

They looked really tired last night...a days rest and hopefully they'll give us another Christmas gift on Christmas Day!

Lon has done a remarkable job in his 5th year to get OU basketball back to National prominence. No matter what happens is just great being a Sooner!

Yep, I was musing to myself last night during the Hawaii game what a monster team it would have been to have all these guys...along with Blake Griffin!

Shoot, forget about it...unbeatable.
Forgive me for dreaming. :eek:

No, these guys are special.
I really expect them to go deep into March madness, they just have to!

Great post, and your last part is right on the money!! Such a great football season, it's easy to forget about hoops this year. (or at least till the football season is in the books) And I'm as guilty as anyone, since my following OU basketball has really fallen off badly the last handful of years. Lon really has done an outstanding job since coming to Norman.

This little tourney was a great example of how easy it is to lose in basketball....and we are still unbeaten.

The Sooners were vastly superior to every other team talent wise but had a rough gi of it.
