*** Official #5 IOWA STATE vs TCU Game(Day) Thread ***

Where the f*ck is that pass even going?!?!

Jefferson is really scary with the ball in his hands tonight, for us

 

[Jeffreyisu]

Jefferson, just, why?

 

[Cydewayz]

Come on guys ....get a score and a stop ...and make FTs

 

[clonedude]

Not sure how much I like JJ running the point with his ball handling issues... think that is in better hands with Tamin.

 

[alenz95]

Wont be able to get to bed for a few hours after this one. Heart rate is up!

 

[BigLame]

Like an intra-squad game of the Washington Generals

 

[danvillecyclone]

Lipsey's outside shot is broken

That was a fading to the left and fairly quick trigger.

Not a good shot for 95% of any player.

 

[CentexCyclone]

Really gritty comeback thus far by the Cyclones. Need to see them stretch out this lead to at least 7 w/2 min to play b/c TCU probably has one more run left in them.

 

[FerShizzle]

JJ needed to dribble that 1 more time and he either gets fouled or heise has a layup.

 

[cyatheart]

Tamin single handily trying to pull this out

 

[Jeffreyisu]

Jefferson, saw that alley-oop attempt by TCU, and said, not bad, now hold my beer.

 

[CySmurf]

Like I hate to blame refs but if you aren’t gonna call anything on the TCU hackathon then don’t call it on us

Reminds me of the game at West Virgina a few years ago.

 

[cloneclone]

Jefferson had a clear path and decided to throw a bullet pass into a covered guy?

 

[jspeels]

I do NOT like the ball in JJ’s hands out far! He isn’t a guard!! Working down low, ok! But he shouldn’t be initiating plays just across half court!

 

[CYedUp]

Almost wasn't a kick.... Threw it into a planted foot

 

[Darius Bieber]

Them being in the bonus while we're at 5 is a problem.

Honestly maybe not, they’re just as bad of a FT shooting team as we are

 

[FerShizzle]

they've come this far. might as well win the thing.

 

[Thomasrickj]

Why is Jefferson making such horrible passes tonight? 3 of every 4 games he seems to be a monster. That 1 of 4 game he is having tonight where he just keeps turning it over after bad pass and bad pass and bad pass.

 

[BigLame]

17 FT attempts to 7
Got to say something to the stripes earlier in the game, TJ - & your players have to hear you when you do it, too.

 

[madguy30]

It's not like we aren't driving to the rim. The fouls should not be this lopsided.

I'll give credit to TCU: their timing on jumping for some of these shots in the lane has been good. Also cutting off some passing and driving lanes.

Kind of reminds me of Iowa in how they can make things just a touch uncomfortable around the hoop.
