Iowa/Sparty Official Game thread

[trj]

Sparty has closed off for business cutting or dribbling across the lane.

Nice adjustment by Izzo.

No easy shots...that's Sparty basketball.

 

[HaydenHawk56]

Huge hack uncalled by Sparty. Again.

Perhaps....but sure looks like Bambi on ice.

Sparty is fouling on the gather, Iowa has to adjust. Pull up game, Kris should be lobbed to every time he is single defended.

 

[Dadman]

Almost wish Fran would have engineered a technical in that beawl of a first hslf

 

[Bigtenchamp]

last two games have been complete trash officiating.

letting all kinds of fouling go... no rhyme or reason to what's a foul or not.

Not sure what you were expecting, you know they are going to get away with that shit, especially at home.

 

[dahlhawk]

No stupid announcers the change in foul calling changed this game.

im used to Sparty pushing and using body, what they are doing is simple chopping at the ball. That’s got to be called at any level of ball. Even at Sparty.

Not sure why everyone is crying about the officiating. If they want to win this they have to overcome it. It is no secret how this game will likely be called.

Less of this please 2nd half.

 

[trj]

C'mon it is basketball, let'em bark at each other.

Ulis having a good start to this half.

 

[Northside Hawk]

Anyone get the feeling that Gus is rooting for Sparty?

I think Jim Jackson is solid as a color analyst, fwiw.

 

[MILHAWKEYE]

We will need some 3's to win this!

Chopping is not only a foul its dangerous. OSU's Aaron Craft once broke Talor Battle's wrist doing that crap. Aaron once chopped Melsahn Basabe three times in one half.

 

[HaydenHawk56]

Great move by Rebraca!

The forgotten Bounce Pass should be considered once in a while
