Watson is broke from 3

Really poor last 5 minutes! Come on guys get it together and value the basketball.

 

[ianoconnor]

Yeah we do

Maybe we do.. last couple times I noticed we ate clock with the opportunity.

 

[Spam]

Is it just me or has Gabe seemed to have gotten away with like three travels tonight so far

Refs love Gabe. I'm okay with that. It doesn't happen often with ISU players.

 

[jctisu]

Only down 2 but a poor finish to that half. We’ve got this.

 

[CYedUp]

FTs seem to be a common issue.. need to start making them

 

[Thomasrickj]

Considering how much we struggled the past 6-7 minutes, I’m not too upset being down by 2. Need to tighten up on the turnovers and give Rob less minutes and we can pull this off.

 

[JP4CY]

Bad first half and it's still a tight game. Could be a lot worse.

 

[Gunnerclone]

Good half boys let’s go!!!!!

 

[CentexCyclone]

Great defense by Gabe on that last KSU possession. Junior high and high school coaches should use videos of Gabe's on-ball defense to teach kids proper, defensive footwork.

 

[cyatheart]

Not a great half. Need to find something else besides gabe offensively.

 

[SoleCyclone]

Crowd kind of low energy tonight?

 

[ISUKyro]

Only down a couple and think we are playing well below what we could be doing.

Just a bit better next half and we win this!

 

[werdnamanhill]

FTs are a problem for this team, big time...

Shades of last year's offense. Just shades, but enough to scare me moving forward.

 

[madguy30]

The alternative is playing Osun 30+ minutes a game. Probably wouldn’t be great.

Imagine thinking a 5 should just sell out on both ends and cruise to 30 min/game in a P6 league with games that come down to the wire on the regular.

 

[simply1]

1/9 from 3

 

[Bob f]

Watson go stand in the corner during warmups and shoot

He does

 

[cyclo120]

Wow thank you Gabe for keeping us in this game. I think we truly need the home court for the 1st time this year because tough to say we are better team.

 

[Cyclonepride]

Pretty good half considering that we're not that sharp on offense. Grill just isn't Grill (who could blame him) tonight. He's basically going through the rotation to help keep other guys fresh right now.

 

[KCClone1]

In the history of Iowa State basketball have we ever made the front end of a one and one?
