mckay is love

Exactly what does Nader do for us besides break the worst 3 point shooter ever at Iowa State record. Keep Burton in.

Did Tubby Smith just replicate this as an offensive call?

 

[demoncore1031]

Out rebounding a team and even on the offensive boards = thread full of rebounding crying. Keep up the good work guys.

It's because a lot of the boards we give up lead to points.

Cooke is about the only guy playing real hard tonight.

Just a hunch but bet Cooke will only get better with more minutes. Based on the teams' reaction when he hit his first bucket, it gave impression they know what he can potentially do to help squad. Coach stated he needed to get him more minutes on the call in show. Forced to give him the minutes tonight. It can only help with confidence. At least we can hope it does.

Nader not lacking confidence..

Madguy, 3 point shooting is the other area we have not improved. We get good looks a lot of times but they haven't been falling all year.

That too. Long not being his former self/absent doesn't help.

Otherwise ISU's not exactly beaming with real pure shooters imo outside of Thomas and Niang, which is odd considering how fast the team can put points up. Morris sometimes is there, Nader is like a Jack in the Box, and McKay's best shot is a dunk. Burton may be there though...time will tell as the season goes. Shot seems smooth from what I've seen.

Plenty of collective ability to score in various ways, which still makes them tough to guard when things are clicking.

people really expected Iowa State to blow them out?

 

[Jakester]

He's been nothing but positive since the one misguided shot.

 

[Prone2Clone]

Nader, Nader, Nader.

 

[Final42b]

Nader is horrible on both sides of the ball

 

[jsmith86]

Really nice play there. Great shot by Niang.

I was hopeful once we got up 18.

 

[Goothrey]

Is that rim regulation size?

 

[IcSyU]

Put the person in Section 108 Row 7 Seat 12 in for Nader and it's possible we'll improve.

Have to finish those bunnies!
