*** Official #2 Houston vs IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

[bustamoveisu]

Do you know the game of basketball? The +s thus far have outweighed the -s.

OK coach, take out Ward and put in Jones...........

 

[JP4CY]

Houston too good to not make a run. Need to play smart.

 

[clonedude]

Whenever Tamin is out …. Gilbert goes into hero ball.

 

[Die4Cy]

Francis = Jameel McKay?

 

[BWRhasnoAC]

BIG ROB LIABILITY STRIKES AGAIN

BAN HAMMER this turd. Nobody rips my Rob.

 

[Cyched]

Love Rob, but he's getting worked by their bigs

 

[ChickenNuggetMan]

Atrocious rebounding

 

[JP4CY]

#5 from Houston pushing on offensive rebounds really frequently

 

[rosshm16]

This officiating is ridiculous, they are letting them just maul us on both sides.

C

Gilbert gets a little too much criticism for this. Not saying he’s perfect but His “hero ball” shows up when the other 4 guys are unwilling to take a shot or work to get open. Someone has to shoot it.

I would agree, but he does it 5-8 times a game and does it early in the shot clock,

 

[exCYtable]

Their physicality is starting to bother us

 

[CycloneVet]

Jfc call a foul

 

[Cyched]

Houston seems to have kicked it up a notch. How will we respond?

 

[ISU_Guy]

starting to get worked at both ends at the rim.

 

[CYDJ]

Wow, we better not get ANY fouls tonight, we are not in this team's league when it comes to fouling. Wow!

 

[CyGuy5]

Houston flat out shoving our guys down low and not getting called

 

[rosshm16]

Atrocious rebounding

When the offensive rebounder is allowed to just shove you out of their way, it's difficult.

 

[cyclonestunners]

They are so tall! It's hard on any rebound. But yes.. they are mugging us by the basket.

 

[Die4Cy]

Might as well start jumping into them and forcing refs on the issue.

 

[t-noah]

They've been getting away with a lot in general. After 3 fouls in the first few minutes, and a lot of whining from Sampson, refs kind of let them do whatever until just now.

Finally a blatant hack on Lipsey. Gotta call that.

We need some calls here.
