Marble may end up with 40 tonight

This is a mentally weak team. This team may only win 2 more the rest of the year.

You are mentally weak for saying this. When your competition is 80 plus % from 3 you are gonna have your hands full.

51 points given up in the first half, no excuse for the lack of focus/energy on D.

Agree with the first part.

I don't agree with people who say "they can't shoot like that again"...those were not tough 3's...they were open looks...we suck closing out.

Let's bet on this, I will take Minnesota shooting under 80% from 3 in the second half, you can have the over, loser gets a two week ban?

Iowa is very undisciplined team and it isn't even funny!!

 

[franstheman]

Hope to see basabe 2nd half

well...it's not like the Hawks had nothing to do with this...if they close out...probably not shooting an insane percentage.

I had a feeling Minnie would break out of their 4 game shooting slump with a vengeance. I said it several times over the past couple days.

The Hawks gave them wide open looks and they knocked em down. Lucky to not be down 20. If we don't have Marble...we are down 20.

 

[HawkPrdatr40]

When will FRAN learn that Marble is not a POINT GUARD!! WTF.....

I'm tired of this arguement. Wisconsin was on fire too. Coincidence? No. Our defense is playing very poorly recently.

We'd be down 23 actually.

They don't need to shoot 80%...even if they do come back to earth...they will probably still win...as long as they don't have a 18% second half...trading 2 for 3 doesn't work out very well for us.

 

[Biggusblockus]

Did clemmons play in the half? We could have used his Dee some

Agreed, but we don't need his turnovers.

 

[glidinghawk]

The Hawks hit 50 percent of their threes, so it's not like they are clanking long shots. White continues to struggle with his 15 to 17 foot jumper.

Has to do with the whack *** zone we are playing. Woody flashing out to the top of the key then sprinting down to cover the post...to the kick out as we collapse in.

So are we on for the bet or no?

Minnesota looks better conditioned.

 

[NEIChawk]

Not much you can do when they're that hot from the 3....Iowa has to be patient, get the ball inside, and get to the line....oh ya, defend the 3....
