I didn't drive 5 hours to watch us lose.
You are an idiot...but we all know this.
I don't know about brilliant, but you would hope that Teske would at least be able to contain Garza. If that was the case, and they covered up the 3 like they did, UM would have won by 30. It was a smart strategy at the very least. I have zero doubt that Solo and Conditt can do better there than Teske did...even if it is partially Garza just not having the best game of his life. I mean, it doesn't take an all-world player to hold him to under 40. Whatever he does, you have to live with it, because we absolutely cannot have one of their scrubs going off for 6 threes like they usually do against us.
Oh, and if I were Prohm, I would be in the refs ear about Pemsl being chippy as soon as they hit the court. Pemsl is a flat out goon and will definitely be out there trying to start something.
Also about the forearm 'creating space' that Bobo, Garza and and mini-Fran do. I didn't see the Iowa/UM game but if Garza gets called for offensive fouls like he should have in the clips I saw, he's less likely to drop 40.
I think teams have more success getting it to the corners and short corner against Iowa. Either way, I agree we have to move the ball, but I prefer skip passes and ball fakes to getting it to the middle. When the defense has to move laterally, it opens holes to drive, kick, or score.
We're a poor shooting team and have shown questionable shot selection. It's not a huge leap to say we could struggle against a zone in a halfcourt game.
I think Iowa State wins. i think Iowa State is better than Iowa. That doesn't mean I can't say their press and zone defense could give us fits. I know that makes me a Hawkeye fan to Cat.
Odds on a bench-clearing brawl...?
Odds on a "Malice in the Palace" sort of situation with CMcCaff?
Ill take Iowa having the lead going into half time. We make adjustments and win by 6 after we pass them with about 5 minutes left. Then Hawk fans claiming they won 35 minutes of the game and the refs cheated them with 5 minutes to go.
Probably has to do with how badly we shoot.
They did win by like 30 right? With NBA teams scoring upper 70's at half, I think traditional stats are out the window.
The more a team scores, the more possessions the other team has so at some point even if good defense is being played lots of points can be scored by default.
It's like how they say the NBA plays no defense--they do, it's just really hard to defend people that are that good with the basketball.
Garza can't shoot 3s
Teams with good guard play have been able to get to the rim at will against Iowa.
He's .429 on the season, granted on a small sample, but has averaged a make a game. He is .331 on his career.
To say he can't shoot 3s is a blinders-on take.
Didn't know he was doing well from 3 this year I just knew he was under 30% last year. My bad
Last night was some beautifully ugly basketball, but I hope against Iowa we can run on those dorks. Getting the pace up near the Bama game would be exciting.
