Seriously doubt many or any KU fans WANT him to fail or suck, they WANT him to do what he did last night.
And it's funny that guy has posted exactly the same thing multiple times now, yet only like 2 or 3 times all season.... Dickinson played well, sound the alarms for a haters tweet!  
Hope he keeps it up so we can set the bar higher than bragging about beating sub-.500 teams. |
"Tough night" refers to the people who say he makes the team worse. Which is an objectively awful take. Whether he consistently gives max effort is a different argument, although I'm not sure you could say that about anyone on this team.
Any evidence to support the idea that he makes the team worse most nights? Just a bizarre take.
What we do have is the Cincinnati game he missed in KC last year. And they honest to God looked like a D2 team that day. Zero offense. Not too surprising to those who recognize that removing a double-double machine who draws triple teams will have a negative impact on the team's ability to score. The team that took the court that day would have finished last in the Big 12.
