The Hopefully Not Garza’s Last Home Game Thread

[HawksMN]

Yes. Played "my turn" basketball because Purdue forced us into it.

I didn't stutter.

Sorry I put this on game prep more than what a shitty 15-14 team does to us on Senior night.

Same shit different year

Painter totally has Fran's number. Four straight losses to Purdue, at least the last two non-competitive.

They completely boat raced us on Chris Street day a few years ago too.

Congrats to Obi Toppin for locking up NPOY tonight.

It may not be fair, but the best player in the country doesn't get blown out twice by a team like Purdue.

Garza is better and has less around him. But it is what it is.

Iowa actually won the second half by 8 points, but the first half was such a cluster F they couldn't get back.

Joe W just gets the ball and tries to run into people . Wtf

 

[HawksMN]

Just because they got beat by other teams doesn’t mean their D didn’t school us. We suck against them.

Your argument makes no sense.

Trying to make sense of an effort like this is futile.

Any update on Pemsl? Hes obviously hurt again.

This from halftime or so ...

Garza..... 9-17 for 26 points. The rest of the team stunk. To be fair, several of Garza's points came in garbage time. It sure doesn't feel like Garza played any better than the rest of the team.

PLEASE do not draw Purdue in the B1G tourney.

glad i worked tonight and only caught the last 2 minutes

This game is going to be the extermination of Iowa’s NCAA seeding. Ending up as a 6 if we beat Illinois or 7 is a death sentence.

Also 12 rbds, 4 blocks, 4 steals, but 4 turnovers

Remember, earlier in the season, when Wieskamp was scoring 15-20 points per game? Hell, I think he scored 30 one game. Wieskamp's slump is really hurting Iowa. Iowa is having to rely on outside shooting from CMac, Evelyn, and Kreiner.

And Connor was only +1 on his ASST/TO ratio (3/2).

His assists were probably down because every time he threw the ball into Garza, Garza had two guys draped all over him and he had no shot.

I was wondering how we outscored them in the second half . Thank you

If you’re gonna have the best big man in the Big Ten that comes with the territory.

MSU has dealt with that many times over in the past. We should be able to as well.

A roster of sub 200 lb white wing shooters don’t compliment that.
