No one guards him. Every game I've watched he's open all day in the corner. Bolton has no interest in passing the ball to him.

JFC lol alright. I don't understand why everything has to be turned into an argument. He's a career 37% 3 point shooter so you're right, all he's ever done is shoot wide open.

I think it certainly could've improved I just think there's a bit of a coincidence that Iowa's defense has looked good for 4 straight games against teams that don't have great offenses.

Outside of Wisconsin last night, the 3 other opponents shot terribly against Iowa from beyond the arc. Indiana was 26%, Rutgers was 21% and MSU was 29%. Did Iowa have an affect on that? Probably some. Maybe they caught some poor offensive teams on off nights as well? Probably. Also, Wisconsin shot 22% from two last night which is awful.

So I think it's a combination of playing bad offensive teams, which is a recipe for success when trying to improve on that end of the floor.

I get that and agree those teams don't have great offenses but im using those exact same teams to compare what they previously scored.

Exactly. For his career he is not as good as Bohannon.

You said Connor didn't play as much last night as he normally does.
He played 24 minutes last night and that's more than his season average.

How is this difficult for you?

He didn't play his normal minutes throughout the game. Yes, he made up for it by probably playing the last 8 mins of the game. He played less than normal in the 1st half and less than normal the 1st 10 mins of 2nd half. The box score won't tell you that though.

I know and I'm saying that those teams shot very very bad beyond the arc (Wisconsin from 2), which obviously has a huge effect on points scored. As someone pointed out, Wisconsin was wide open a lot and just missed shots. That's part of the game of basketball, however good teams, particularly good shooting teams will capitalize on that.

I would agree. Bohannon is a good 3 point shooter. It's not even a debate. You said Bohannon would be the best shooter on ISU this year and pointed to his 3 pt % as to why. This year, JCL is shooting better from 3 than JBo.

Absolutely, and as I believe I said before, Iowa did what they were supposed to do against these teams.. Win the game and win them in a controlling fashion. Everyone can b**** and moan about how the teams weren't good and stuff like that. Iowa beat them and now has a few wonderful opportunities to help pad their resume going into the post season.
