In the last couple of weeks he is shooting 33% from 3 while shooting 6 of them a game. Still pretty mediocre. His stretch before that was worse than mediocre

He didn't say mediocre from 3, he said mediocre. You guys will really twist any statement to go your way I guess.
In the last two weeks he's averaging 22.6 points a game, on 48% FG, 35% from 3, with 6.3 boards, 2.3 blocks, and 2 steals. That's not "mediocre the last couple weeks", and was my only argument.
They may have the ability to move on from Temple to upset Villanova and make the sweet 16, but I see no reason to expect a recent trend to change all of a sudden so I expect a loss to Temple.
You forgot he's run away from the ball in these close losses and then said stuff like "ask the coaches".
All against pretty weak competition. I think randy peterson might have been able to rack up 20 on Illinois and pedo u.
This is getting good. So those stats the last couple weeks are considered mediocre because it was against weak competition?
BTW it was Illinois and Michigan, no pedo U.
When you look at his stats you do have to take into consideration he's playing in a weak conference. Kind of like Seth Tuttle last year for UNI. Doesn't mean he's not a great player
now the big ten is a weak basketball conference? Didn't know that. Before you look like an even bigger Buffon, wait until the tournament is played before you call one conference weak. Especially when the past 5 years the big ten has been one of the best basketball conferences out there.,
Because using like 10 games that only your top 5-7 teams play in is a good measurement of overall conference strength? Better than using all of the teams in a conference over 100's of games? Using the last 5 years ago to measure how good a conference is this season? Also a solid idea. Draymond Green is having a great year for the Spartans this year.
Have you not been paying attention this year? The Big Ten sent 42% of their teams to the NCAA Tournament and even if Michigan wins tonight it will only be 50%. To compare the Big 12 sent 70% of their teams to the NCAA Tournament. The Big Ten is probably the 5th best conference in basketball this year so yeah I'd call it weak
Not weak but RPI-wise across the board it's fifth this year

Big 12 .5884
Pac 12 .5776
ACC .5714
Big East .5608
B1G .5515
But MSU gets to the Final Four all of the time so that makes our team awesome by adjacency.
In the last two weeks Iowa has lost at home to a 5 seed and lost on a neutral court to an awful Illinois team while Uthoff disappeared down the stretch.
Woah woah woah. B1G might have some very good teams, but it is watered down as **** by teams 9-14
That's why the play the regular season to get to post season play. And then play a team with comparable regular season success. If your team can't show up at the most important times then maybe that team isn't as good as people thought..
And cytwins doing what cytwins does is say a narrative that is incorrect.. Iowa played msu twice, Indiana twice, Purdue twice.. So to say Iowa played a weak conference schedule is a wrong narrative.
