Iowa BB Player Tweets about ISU After Loss

[CyTwins]

Road games against possible tourney teams in conference play? JW has played a few as well.

How's he done in those games Bud?

 

[VegasHerky]

By the way Vegas is for sure YeahBuddy. FIgured as much before but OBPM gave it away

I literally went down the line on Sports Reference for THT and JW and pulled the offensive numbers.

 

[CyTwins]

Thats a really bad take.

OK if you aren't YeahBuddy what was your previous username? (insert crickets)

Except it was a non conference game. Since conference play has started he's still averaging 10 ppg.

Nice job leaving out a major stat like, I don't know, REBOUNDS??? Add to that the defensive side of the equation and you've lost the argument.

Defense optional

The argument was who was the better offensive player.

Offensive RPG:

Wieskamp: 1.3
THT: 0.7

Conference RPG:

Wieskamp: 1.2
THT: 0.5

Hes averaging less than 9 PPG in conference play. Iowa played 2 conference games in late November and early December. Who cares when the games are played?

Conference RPG:

We know, defense optional.

Wieskamp:

11.1 PPG, 1.0 APG, 50.5% FG, 43.6% 3FG, 74.7% FT, 124.6 ORtg, 6.4 OBPM

Conference games only:

11.1 PPG, 1.0 APG, 47.9% FG, 42.1% 3FG, 79.5% FT, 125.5 ORtg

THT:

12.2 PPG, 2.7 APG, 41.2% FG, 31.7% 3FG, 60.6% FT, 103.8 ORtg, 2.0 OBPM

Conference games only:

8.9 PPG, 2.1 APG, 37.8% FG, 35.2% 3FG, 41.2% FT, 96.0 ORtg


THT put up a lot better numbers in non con against weaker competition than he has in Big 12 play. Wieskamp has stayed pretty consistent from non con to B1G season.

Wieskamp is a much better offensive player. Not sure how you can argue otherwise.

If I had to choose between the two, I'd take THT in a minute. You'll say I'm prejudiced, but you can't in all honesty tell me Wieskamp is a better basketball player than THT.

Bump for @VegasHerky

Not optional. Pages ago, I said JW was much better on offense and THT was better on defense. Overall, a slight edge goes to JW.

Sure I can, and so can the stats and advanced metrics.

 

[SCyclone]

That’s a pretty silly statement to make so definitively.

Name someone that's comparable to him currently playing - physical size, skills, etc.

 

[CyTwins]

Not optional. Pages ago, I said JW was much better on offense and THT was better on defense. Overall, a slight edge goes to JW.

You also said you were excited ISU got Marial Shayok so we know how to value your opinion

Like I said, thats a really bad take.

Lol at least you admitted it was a bad take. You really doubled down on it though back then

How many ISU games do you watch?

He doesn't miss them. Remember when he said Babb would be the 13th man at Iowa last year? Lol

 

[JP4CY]

Yeah Buddy
