Iowa Basketball's Super Bowl
- Thread starter CyTwins
- Start date
I thought grabbing nuts is what Iowa players did to each other on the bench? Where are those photos again of Gessell?
What were their advanced stats for the last 4 minutes of each game? That is what is important to you. What were those?
I am not limited by your lack of intellect in framing debates. So, much like the Hawk fans who tried to steal the goal posts from the Metrodome, you can take your goalposts and shove them where the sun doesn't shine.
If I wanted to dig I know I can find plenty of posts about Niang botching end of game situations. He had a streak at one point and everyone was wondering why Monte didn't have the ball in end of game situations.
Niang made plenty of plays / shots over his career to outweigh any of the ones he missed.. Please don't compare Georges to Iowa players because it's incredibly insulting to him.
sigh....3 pt shot and shot clock didn't exist for all but one of those guys.
Grayer is the best college basketball player to ever play in Iowa. Niang is firmly #2 on the list. Not sure who 3 would be, probably Marble or Stevens
The whole premise of the linked list was the amount of fouls charged per game. Fouling does not make a player dirty.
Not gonna predict, but I hope you're right. It depends on if the shots are falling for the Cyclones. They seem to go through unexpected droughts.
Either way, I know I will have no voice left at the end of the game!
I'd prefer Iowa State to win by 3 for financial reasons
But he never averaged over 3 TOs a game in any season at ISU despite you claiming over 3 per game was his career average. You are just making stuff up again. Nobody is Monte Morris, however a big man averaging over 3 assists a game for his career is doing pretty well. Besides that, a guy scoring 20 points a game is going to have a turnover now and then. Also note that between his junior year and his senior year his scoring went up over 5 points a game while his turnovers went down so again you were wrong about his turnovers getting "worst" as he got older.
For reference, career numbers:
Garza 1.0 a, 1.3 to, 0.77 ratio
Kriener 0.7 a, 0.8 to, 0.88 ratio
Nunge 1.1 a, 1.0 to, 1.1 ratio
Pemsl 1.2 a, 1.4 to, 0.86 ratio
Niang 3.1 a, 2.3 to, 1.35 ratio
Once Georges got nationally recognized, which was about his sophomore year, he was talked about as being one of the most versatile players in all of college basketball.. He was incredibly unique and a matchup nightmare. Kudos to this guy trying to diminish Georges but anyone with a basketball mindset can understand that Georges did so many things that didn't show up in stat sheets while also stuffing the stat sheet.
