Cartwright delivers

[1hawkeye1]

This team plays much better when Bryce is on his game. Showing no effects from his injuries at this point.
Shooting was sub-par 2/7 FG 1/2 FT 5pts. But.......

7 Asst, 2 TO, 1 block, 1 steal
That's exactly what we need from him.

Even Gus told him to lay off the shooting at one point, but other than that, A fine effort from BC.

Yeah, when he launched that 3. Gus mentioned there is a reason he's that open. I actually didn't mind that shot, though. We've seen him knock down a big shot before and when he's THAT open, might as well chuck. His scoring game is relatively limited to open jumpers at the elbow and closer. He was efficient with the ball today though.

I didnt mind that 3 either. He already knocked down a few jumpers and was playing in a good rhythm. I wouldnt have been that surprised if he knocked that down.

Bryce still holds the ball too long sometimes and makes it hard for us to get into an offensive rhythm. I do think we are better on the break with Cartwright but better half court with marble

Good player. Part of the Iowa turnaround the past two seasons. Love him....

What has happened to Marble as far as scoring in the paint. I just don't see him driving and finishing in the lane much the last four or five games. I don't have a problem with him expanding his three point shooting, but lets not forget about what had been his primary weapon.

Good observation. Several times BC would just dribble for 10 seconds and not do much except run down the shot clock, although I know the other 4 are trying to pick to get someone open.

But overall I thought BC really pushed it and was under control the last 30 minutes. His TOs came early I think.

And that was a big block late in the game.
