Game Thread: Iowa vs Northwestern

Xerxes said:
Nice job getting back into at the end of the half but this team has to understand that just because they can't hit wide open 3's doesn't mean every other team is going to miss them too.

They also need to realize they have a center. Actually two centers and feed them the ball down low. I don't understand why Iowa plays like they don't have a big. They could be owned Northwestern down low but they again refuse to work it there. Same with White.
 
White is moving in the zone like a:

White needs to take charge

Take charge how exactly? The guy doesn't even look like he wants to be playing basketball. I won't even mention the obvious that he is a horrible shooter and extremely 1 dimensional. Add to that the fact that refs are not going to send him to the line this year for simply running into someone completely out of control and just throwing some carp up.

What was Uthoff thinking there? The shot clock is winding down so i better drop down so their best player can have a wide open 3. Like others have said. There is no reason to sag off the shooters to double the penetrator. If they can make a shot over our length, congrats you got 2 points. The only way they win this game is to make 3's. Stop letting them shoot them!

I think he got lost and thought White was a Northwestern player.

Have you seen Woody this game yet? I wouldn't want to give it to him either. One pass that hits the rim, another that should've been a TO, and 2 missed FT'sFT's. Just pathetic.

Well I could go back out to the garage and start swearing at my door opener some more I guess. At least there is a reasonable chance for success there.

this is looking like another epic failure.

Missed the first half but from the posts I didn't miss anything.


Did you check your safety sensors first.
 
This is on Fran We have better players than NW period. We are the worst team in the country at guarding the three. We always leave a man to double and they shoot 6-12. That's coaching! Our Zone offense doesn't have a clue
Fran will undoubtedly be here next year but if he misses the tournament with the schedule we have down the stretch it will be his last

When Jon Miller starts to get giddy about this team, they just straight **** it down their legs. It's like they read Hawkeye Nation and believe the hype. Knock it off, Jon, this team is average at best more than half the time.

I dunno. With this bottom-feeder schedule he picked them 5-3...maybe 6-2. That's not giddy I don't think.

When your center can't leave the ground and is consistently blocked by guys 8" shorter than him I don't think that I'd consider him an advantage and something we should try to exploit. Sadly he's better 10' away from the basket shooting.
