ISU Game Thread
-
@HawkChamp I agree look back on this thread, I was taking crap for saying we had to tighten up with a double digit lead or we would let them right back in it. I say everyone stays and makes 500 FTS had too many misses late.
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich idk if there is a stat for that. But seems like you don’t win very many games when ya let the either team throw up 34 treys
-
Baylor is catching up. Down 7 with 4:43 to go
-
@HawkChamp I don’t see lazy. Occasionally stupid (perhaps “ill-advised” is better?) but they are always moving. Just not to the right places sometimes…
-
@mayjay Lucas definitely had some lazy outlets. Which is disappointing cause he worked so hard on the glass. Then I think maybe what 4 TOS on JJ when he tried to go to the hole and just got stripped
-
@mayjay lazy mentally my friend. We had ten more turnovers than ISU. That really hurts when they are so sloppy. Do they even talk about it in practice?

I am tired of his one-handed missed dunks… And getting fouled doesn’t help if you miss FTs. I would prefer a protected-ball layup and a foul.
-
As an aside good for Steve Prohm. Huge win. they may get their chance to do this in the tournament. Definitely helps their resume.
-
Again, Svi overhelping cost three points with that corner three. What on earth did he think he was doing standing at the free throw line? He left his man wide open and put us down four. There’s no way Bill teaches that is there?
-
@cragarhawk I think it might be the opposite actually. Usually when a team throws up that many 3’s they don’t win the game. On the season, Iowa State shoots 36.8% from the 3-point line and attempts 25 3’s per game. If they shot 34 3’s at around their season average then I think KU probably wins this by 8-10 points in regulation. But they were hot today.
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich and we did little to stop it. You have to force the other team off the three point line and make them shoot a tough shot over the top. Poor coaching today
-
Thank you, grapes.
-
Well thank you KSU. Of course, the flip side of that is…they have momentum, and will probably be even more pumped for us on Monday.
-
KSU scored 18 points in the second half.
-
Thanks KSU
-
@drgnslayr @nuleafjhawk alright which one of you guys didn’t do your ritual today?
-
Better be more focused on Monday or we will be on a losing streak
-
@HawkChamp that’s what bothers me I didn’t think we played hard and when ksu beats us it’s because they play harder.
-
@kjayhawks that is a constant theme, isn’t it. It seems like our opponents always want it more than we do. I felt like that was true in the second half today.
-
@KUSTEVE Just ignore or humor them Jethro Yes our lives go in a normal fashion - but some who really knows?? WTH might normal be?
-
Well @rocketdog You &I sure as hell missed the boat on this one. I never saw this coming.
-
@globaljaybird me too!
-
@approxinfinity You won’t believe me if i told you. I did the same thing as always - after the game i had to go grocery shopping (although i didn’t have much of an appetite…) My brother in law calls and says " I know what went wrong! " Keep in mind, he’s serious. I said " I do too, they played like a bunch of pussies in the second half ". He says " NO! I didn’t have my lucky hat on - why didn’t you remind me? "
So - i guess it is my fault.
-
@nuleafjhawk screw you dude. you ruined it for all of us!
-
I watched the game on my DVR because I was out. Why didn’t anyone here warn me not to bother watching?
