*** Official #8 IOWA STATE vs #5 Houston Game(Day) Thread ***

[CYDJ]

We are not taking our open looks...

I suspect we MAY be trying to shorten the game. Try to get an even better shot? Just thinking about reasoning.

I would guess this will look a lot like TJs first year today

Definitely want to shorten the game and people seem to complain about no ball movement or too much lol

 

[ISUTex]

Kelderman can play. Reminded me of Bowen Born in high school.

If he's playing over a talented scholarship player, maybe he needs a scholarship.

 

[AllInForISU]

I thought Nojus was a good ball handler. Apparently not.

Or Kelderman is better. Having to play scout team PG against a defense as aggressive as Houston every day for 2 years probably makes TJ trust him quite a bit.

100%

shorter overall game time, longer offensive sets are definitely ISU's gameplan.

 

[cyclones12321]

Just grind them out and hope to have an opportunity to win in the end. Similar to tjs first year imo

that would make sense, keep the score low, and stay close as possible to be in the game in the 2nd half.

 

[StLouisClone]

Watson might/should play 30 minutes today!

I'm just glad I picked Houston to cover the spread. I just don't see a world where we keep turnovers down enough to keep it close.

 

[ISUTex]

Why would you assume shooting guards are point guards?

Otz knows his team

Maybe because a lot of ISU's guards are both?

 

[jdoggivjc]

keep this thing close and anything can happen.

Gotta finish Milan

 

[jaj040]

Put it up nate!

But does not mean they all are

 

[CyGuy5]

Heise you just gotta go up with that

The amount of good looks we pass up kills me

 

[fsanford]

Put it up nate!

That was a layup wasnt it?

 

[Erik4Cy]

We have some of the worst hands on rebounds ever. Every other rebound opportunity for ISU turns into a loose ball.

 

[exCYtable]

Need Milan to get it going
