While Gilbert was the offensive catalyst during that run, Jefferson's defense was key in the stops we got.

Kind of a bold strategy for them to let things play out.

I am not a big BB x and o guy. I wrestled for a living.

And I don't know if it is an x an o thing or just level of intensity but TJ throws a switch on things 4-8 minutes left in the game and it's lights out.

The joke is 'playing with their food' but I really think they do.
I think we just wear the other team down, and then TJ gives the order to strike.

I think he wanted to be there- who doesn't love Arizona in January?

*Just didn't feel like playing.


*this was a WILD, WILD take.
I said JJ was an NBA talent when he feels like it... so I'm sure it was me. Not afraid to admit what I said... especially when it's 100% accurate.

When guys aren't playing up to their potential, I will say it... I know that makes me a horrible fan in the eyes of some on here. Whatever. And I give them the props they deserve when they do. JJ and KG both finished the game like the studs they are. Was great to see.

So rant away on me and try to make me not be a Cyclone fan anymore.... sorry.. that will NEVER work.

Tons of people were critical of how we played most of the game today, but I'm the one that always gets called out every time it seems... it's fine. S**t on me all you want. Shows what great fans you really are, doesn't it!

Naw, you're a good fan in being dedicated to and passionate about ISU.

But doubling down on saying a player doesn't feel like playing as a starter in TJ's program is wild.

Not everything in a game is instant and once their bigs got tired, he was able to do his thing.

There were multiple posts from different people.

Also more 'Watson should get Heise's minutes' which imo is mind blowing considering their roles/positions.
Not surprised... the people who don't understand heises value are privacy very similar to those who don't understand positions in basketball.

Whats tired is how quick you are to meltdown or call out individuals. Its repeated most games.. usually in the first half as were still feeling teams out.

But sure... go ahead and play victim and blame others
