*** Official #3 IOWA STATE vs Arizona Game(Day) Thread ***

[RagingCloner]

One thing that has been pretty frustrating lately is the amount of TOs feel like we really need to clean that up. We gave up a few really easy baskets with bad turnovers.

This. This game shouldn’t have even been close

 

[cyatheart]

Not going to make a big deal of it, but we really folded in the other, disappointing

 

[goody2012]

Not fouling, up by 3 with 2.2 seconds left, is coaching malpractice. What a stupid ending to a stupid game

He made a 1 in 100 shot, the odds of fouling there and giving up a put back are way higher.

 

[SoleCyclone]

And if they manage to throw up a prayer and get rewarded? They made a 55ft shot. Is so low percentage

You know what's a lower percentage? Not being able to attempt it

 

[CycloneVet]

They have the best offensive rebounder in the nation

Exactly he is gonna get his

 

[Dgilbertson]

Were you entertained?
Do you love this team?
Do you wish we won?

Of course. Don’t be a b***h

 

[AllInForISU]

Still a higher percentage to make that than miss the freethrow and and score.

You got those percentages handy? I’d love to see them.

yeah, i would tend to agree. a free half-court shot is easier.

 

[Clonefan32]

Based on what exactly

 

[OrangeCarrot]

JJ should’ve missed the FT on purpose.

We would have lost in regulation then. It’s not like Arizona actually took advantage of using the inbounds pass. Love still had to drill a 3 quarter shot.

 

[RagingCloner]

Are you serious? Its absolutely not

 

[ClonesTwenty1]

I’m staying positive. We could be Iowa and 4-6 in the big ten

 

[awd4cy]

That was one of the most brutal ways to lose a game I can remember. Of course the prayer went in

Reminds me of the banked McLemore 3 at KU. This feels worse I think.

 

[ABECyguy]

Time to get home, rest up, refocus, and take out the frustration on Tang on Saturday

 

[cyatheart]

This. This game shouldn’t have even been close

Gilbert turning it over too much, it's just too much.

 

[AuH2O]

So you foul a 85% FT shooter and hope you don’t catch him in the act of shooting?

And with 2.2 they have a guy that is literally the best offensive rebounder in the country, so the odds of an offensive rebound on the second FT are probably as good or better than dog **** love making a 55-60 ft shot.

 

[FeedBreece]

or you just make your free throws

Sure. But missing the first changed everything.

Everyone chill. Just go watch Pigeon Toady from the Storks movie and you'll feel better. And, if you've seen this movie that means you have kids and games like this aren't that important. Hug your kids in the morning and everything will be fine.

 

[Malone]

Me has a feeling Arizona will bend over and take it very hard and very rough in Ames.

 

[twojman]

IMO, the Big 12 regular season winner will have at least 4 losses.
