Does that court look better in person? Even it it does, it's awful on TV and should be set on fire.
Nope. I'm used to it, but it looks pretty bad in person as well. Pointless. A clean look would be so much better.

Kirk with half of the Bobcats’ turnovers tonight. Typical.
I wouldn't be too upset if he moved on. He leaves almost as many points on the floor as he scores. He had 14 pts and three assists, but six TOs (NIU as a team had eight) and 4-9 in FTs. I'm not blaming last night's loss on him; there was enough lousy play to go around. But this is the kind of line we get from him almost every game.

For every positive thing he does, and he does do positive things, it feels like he negates it all with turnovers, missed FT's, and bad shots.

I'd wager that if/when Saul leaves, TK isn't far behind. In my opinion, he's a classic case of a kid that could use a change of scenery. Of course there's the other side, which is perhaps a new coaching staff changes and improves his game.

Agree...will be the stunner of all stunners if this kid is back next year. Turnovers have been well documented. I just don't know how that stroke can be fixed over his last two years as well.

We'll see, but I bet he stays regardless of who the coach is next year. From what I've heard he's a very smart kid, and not the type to abandon ship, but the kind of person who will work hard to get better. He was horrible last night, and after a few games of improvement, got back into turnover mode. Three steps forward, one step back . . .

Agree with this. I've been told that in the weight room, he's a very hard worker and very humble. He's always trying to better himself as a player and human. Yes, he has issues... but I put more blame on the coach for not developing him.
