Easily. 10-20 point win with Niang.


Add Niang and you have 2 similar teams yet ISU isn't undersized and can get buckets inside. No Niang and all of a sudden a team who isn't big lilke Uconn gets a real size advantage.



Sadly the game was lost because Kane was not clutch and Napier was.


**** man I hate uconn more than any other team they are so ******* lucky they got to see a Niang less Clone team. That ******* team gets so many breaks and tehy are good. But Uconn got the hot start they needed and Kane killed ISU's chances bricking free throw after free throw.


It took Uconns best game of the season to win even without Niang and took a choke job by Kane which shows that this squad next year will be the same level as this years team and should be ranked anywhere from 10-20 all season.


And they almost overcame no Georges, Napier being red hot, and UConn getting an early lead.

I agree with you Final42B. I don't know why so many are roasting you. Niang makes a huge huge difference.

Maybe.

Maybe we win if we make more FTs. Maybe we win if Naz hits some more first half threes. Maybe we win if Ejim/Kane hit some more inside shots.

Tons of what ifs. UConn hit shots early. UConn hit free throws late. We did neither and lost the game. It sucks, but there will always be next year for us fans.

For Ejim/Kane, they are done playing Cyclone basketball. It feels crappy as a fan but know it feels way worse for them.

It isn't a contest with George out there, but that said, all you gotta do is make FT's and you win the game. For all the hype about their guards, the difference was at the line
