Maybe kessler and Jabari feel bad about the seasons finish and decide to come back?
They are finishing this game, thinking about that NBA money.

Great season with a really disappointing ending. We’ve still got Bruce so this isn’t the last great team we will have. Hell of a season boys

Auburn will never have a team this talented again. This was our best shot to win it all or out us in the bucket of being regular contenders. We fumbled the ball hard.

Agree 100%. It is hilarious to hear so many fans say how great of a season it was. No it wasn't. Finishing the last 10 games at .500 isn't a good season.


Give me a break. We won the season title.

Like you said, we were lucky to get that with how shitty we played the last half of the season. It's not that we lost, it's how bad we looked losing.

Still a good year.

Jabari is obviously 100% gone, Kessler really has no business leaving.

Relatively in Auburns history this is a great season, but now Bruce has created expectations.

The new Auburn, having been ranked number 1, having a lottery pick and potentially another first rounder, you cannot lay an egg like this.

Kessler has no future in today’s NBA. Big men that can’t shoot are near extinct.

They did something this year that had only happened four times prior in school history. It wasn’t a great year by Duke standards but it absolutely was a great year for Auburn basketball.

I mean his main NBA comp is probably Rudy Gobert. Thats who he’s gotta emulate

I mean a ton of teams play bigs who can't shoot serious minutes.

More importantly it's whether NBA scouts believe they can teach Kessler to shoot. He's shown flashes of touch, wouldn't shock me some teams take a chance

I lean to this line of thinking. I think he can have a place in the NBA it’s a matter of if he shows/an NBA team thinks he can develop an offensive game. He’s a great shot blocker but has struggled defensively against other good bigs.

For all we know there’s a team in love with him, but I wouldn’t be shocked if he was back.

Well.. Good season. Didn't end the way we wanted to, but it was fun. Still won the SEC and still got that #1 ranking for the first time. Curious to see how Bruce builds the team next next year.

Jabari bricked like 6-7 shots to start the shoot around before the second half. Could tell it visibly shook him up

We need to improve drastically at the 3 position, and have more depth of options at the 1 and 2. Need to get a super talented player at the 4. Can’t wait to see how we fill it out

We need to recruit shooting talent and replace Kess if he decides to leave...

Bruce has got to find a couple true shooters. Your PF shouldn't be your best 3pt shooter. Also hopefully we'll have people who will take a ton of minutes away from Flanigan and Cambridge they are deadweight on offense.

Meh I disagree.. Maybe on paper this was the most talented but Jabari is a lottery pick because he's 6'10 with huge upside not because he's out here averaging 28ppg. Take him away and you got a 7' who can only dunk and block shots. Two 3 guards that can't shoot and some pretty average guard play.

We obviously shite the bed tonight but a sweet 16 or elite 8 with this group would of been damn impressive.
