The official early bring your war paint because someone is getting out of the basement game thread

I like Dailey. But please tell him you can't give a 7' Garza a bounce pass at his ankles.

Don’t understand why defensive rotation is such a hard thing for the Iowa program to grasp.

 

[Stanzi]

Illinois paid off the basketball gods. Somehow they can't miss a 3 no matter what. Have these bums made more than 5 threes in a game all season?

I'm going to the Iowa/Purdue Game Saturday, at least I know the Women will most likely win and put on a good show!

The gods have something to do with open looks?

They are driving and Moss has all day to step in and take a charge. Instead he decides he's going to jump up and block it. Then he reconsidered and decides to concede an easy layup. That just doesn't happen in D1 basketball.

Iowa defense=

Do you got one with the bull running over the matador?

 

[1hawkeye1]

How can D1 players be so friggin slow?

 

[thedukeofearl]

Still time to cut it to ten by the half

However, the Illini are red hot

That little guard is smaller than Bo

Taking it to the rim and making the shots from deep

More than likely, a breakout game for him

If, by some odd quirk of fate, we do cut it on around ten points at the half

I will be satisfied

Nope, they saw Iowa's defense and said this is easy.

Even normal teams don't make every 3 even when they're open. If you leave a team wide open they will usually make about 50%. Illinois has missed what? 2 all game?

 

[Robowe]

Common theme ... Iowa opponents shoot lights out. Hmmm ...

 

[revkev73]

Let's agree to not comment about or complain about the officiating...it is like 76th on the list of things that make Iowa a hideous BB team...

We're literally playing 5 to 6 feet off all their perimeter players.

 

[Joshbrown]

He is good, but is he that good? Right now it looks like he will have to be a transcendent, once in a decade type of guy. I don’t want that type of pressure on him.

Sounds like you're saying he would have to overcome his coaching. We already have that problem in football. Barta seems intent on replicating that problem in basketball.

 

[thedukeofearl]

Hooking him with the horns and waving him around in the air

 

[1hawkeye1]

LOL, 10 turnovers and it aint' even halftime yet.

 

[Stanzi]

OH MY GOD THEY MISSED A 3!!!

 

[HaydenHawk56]

With our arms down.

Beginning to wonder if FM may not last past this year...

I’m going to have to retract my “he’s not going anywhere. move on” comment from “the I’m ready for a new coach” thread.
