*** Official IOWA STATE vs #23 Texas Tech Game(Day) Thread ***

[Cyinthenorth]

I give up on this team, soon they'll give up on their coach. 12 wins is the new bar for the year, but they might give up before they can reach that

 

[Final42b]

I just miss being excited for the games

I love the people defending Prohm by saying we started the game down 11-2 and that's hard to come back from. That's frickin' hilarious stuff right there.

Who said this?

 

[Cyinthenorth]

Bolton is a bright spot moving forward and he and Conditt will need to become the alphas.

Hali gotta go...projected top 5 is serious coin

Hali is not top 5 good, but if he's getting that information, then yes, he does need to go

TT 51% from the floor and 43% from three. Us, 36% and 6%.

 

[Skyh13]

Still time for ISU to hit 45. I'm looking to hit on that prediction.

TT 51% from the floor and 43% from three. Us, 36% and 6%.

That’s laughable at this point.

Remember when we played that really active zone against OU for 6 minutes in the first half and then haven’t used it since...

Have you watched today's game?

I assume you must be joking. I cannot believe anybody agreed with this. We do not have the talent to be a tourney team.

I dunno, having a lottery pick guy in his second year is a good start. His talents just don't work with bad offensive players i guess.

 

[Cyfanisu]

No coach has ever made a player a good shooter. It's like the tools on here that credit Fred for making Naz a good shooter.
Being a great shooter takes about 1 hour of coaching and 1,000 hours in the gym.

Then clearly our players are not practicing 1000 hours in the gym since they can’t hit a three. and weren’t Nixon and Bolton decent three point shooters at their previous schools?

 

[Cycl1]

Man, we can't shoot for ****.

 

[ISUCY23]

Defense has been outstanding today.

They’re shooting over 50% so I disagree

 

[Cyinthenorth]

Mark it down that we lost the game when Prohm decided to get a T on an obvious call by the official.

This was the turning point if there was one

 

[CYDJ]

I'm not sure if there is a way to determine if officiating is bad per se. But, inconsistency can be PROVEN. All you have to do is show the same thing happening on either end with regularity with inconsistent results. Does anyone do this kind of analysis? Maybe the conference or officials' organization to notice tendencies. Side with higher ranked teams, home teams, certain styles of play, etc?

 

[FerShizzle]

Have you watched today's game?

Yes. I have watched us do the same thing for 32 minutes with no change in style or plan.

 

[Cy$]

Something about south side DSM, camo snuggies, wal-mart, and pet hair. You know, typical ramblings of a deranged individual.

sounds like it wasn't very funny.

 

[MeowingCows]

That’s laughable at this point.

You can't play a much worse game than that without intentionally throwing, really. Everything on offense has gone wrong. It's a shame because the defense today was actually good, they hung around in this for a long time against a solid team, in spite of awful shooting.

 

[AuH2O]

Ehhh... Spurs’ coaching staff definitely made Kawhi an amazing shooter.

Ehhh Kahwhi made Kawhi a good shooter. So all the Spurs on that team were great shooters?
