Improved intensity might keep them in games, but these guys still can't finish.
Bummer.

Didn't You just feel as the game went on that Wisconsin would win a close one in the end? Just Iowa Basketball

The Fran crowd willl chime in saying how it's different tho.
Well, maybe outside of 2 mins remaining it is.
They will bring up the Pitt game, where Iowa tried to lose, but Pitt tried harder.

defense disappears at key times... plenty of bad shots being thrown up. familiar themes. Let's see where they go from here.
BTW, I was driving for a bit of the game. Dolph isn't great, but the backup was even less.... great. Somebody should tell him Garza's first name is Luka...not Luke.

True. The positive ... I guess ... is that it is for shorter stretches of 5-6!minutes instead of 12.

Fair enough. What happens from here (regression to last year vs clear improvement) will tell us about the coaching.

Ehh.. defense was good enough for the most part... someone has to make fucking shots.
Shit gets old. Shooting a basketball is not as hard as we make it.

The defense was pretty good tonight. And it was M2M.But have you seen his videos?
Now the question is, “do they practice shooting?”

No kidding. Apparently not the past few couple days.

Wisconsin was starting to really dig in around the five, six minute mark.
Defenders were navigating screens properly, rotation was flawless, we were sideways and settling.
That play Davison made to deflect post entry to Garza was epic.
Davison, Iverson, and Pritzl were frequently defending Cook amd Garza in the post and holding their own.
We had two breakdowns that stick out.
1) Dailey forgets were in man, doesn't get around screen, Trice hits three at shot clock expiration.
2) Wiescamp doubles post, Pritzl hits three.
I don't think Iowa lost, Wisconsin just imposed their will. Even if Bohannon hits that three and we go up four, I think Wisconsin still comes back.
They're used to winning games like that. We're still learning.

That was the killer stretch. That's where Wisconsin won the game.
