Dakitch is 100% right. Just because we aren’t a good 3 point shooting team, doesn’t mean we need to constantly shoot a ton of 3s.

 

[KCyclone2010]

This should be our starting lineup

He's partially right. Our driving hasn't exactly been lights out today, either, with a good chunk of missed shots and blocked shots. We aren't exactly collecting free throws like we were against OKST, either.

Right now, we seem to be playing best in transition and on speed. Do whatever it takes to keep that running.

Lewis should always get minutes before Grill

 

[tzjung]

It's purely a philosophy problem at that point. Do you hope your guys shoot themselves back to normal, or risk fully killing their confidence by red-lighting them and removing the potential outside threat from your game?

"Back to normal"???!!! Have you watched this team? This is our normal. We have 18 games in the books, 15 if those have been horrible shooting nights

I feel like theres been more coaching camera shots in this game than any I've seen in a long time.

It’s still a higher percentage play than our 3s.

 

[CloneGuy8]

Gee, look what happens when Young and Lewis come in

 

[fsanford]

Nixon on bench, ISU plays competitively

 

[sheepplucker]

Ladies and gentlemen you are looking at the should be starting lineup

 

[ForbinsAscynt]

So because of that, and you not saying anything to that person about it, you're going to play the race card on me when I've compared the two of them mentally.

That's actually something that's annoying.

I didn’t direct my comment toward you but you’re right it was not a fair. My apologies. I think a lot of isu fans were saying Matt Thomas without any sample to back it up. I don’t like the comp.

 

[MeowingCows]

Holy **** Auburn got super sloppy, super fast.

 

[Cy$]

i swear ISU always goes on a run when Nixon and Jacobson are out. They'll still start and play a lot the next game.

 

[Cyched]

So this is what going on a run feels like

 

[Final42b]

This should be our starting lineup

Too much athleticism and guys that can actually shoot

 

[cyclonestate]

I think the light has come on for Solo. He has figured out how to be relentless. Dude is competing!

 

[CTTB78]

Dan has changed his tune a little since saying we would get beat by 162 or whatever his nice comment was.

 

[JP4CY]

I didn’t direct my comment toward you but you’re right it was not a fair. My apologies. I think a lot of isu fans were saying Matt Thomas without any sample to back it up. I don’t like the comp.

No worries glad we're square.

"Back to normal"???!!! Have you watched this team? This is our normal. We have 18 games in the books, 15 if those have been horrible shooting nights

Do you think taking the outside game out entirely is going to help us? Being a one-dimensional team isn't any better.

You're a power 5 team. Shoot like one.

Lewis should always get minutes before Grill

Which is not a shot against Grill at all.... Lewis should be playing more because he's a junior and has more experience, and it shows.
