    Does Monte lack confidence in his shooting?

    It is a valid point. He is very creative finishing around the rim though. Guys like Gesell and White bull their way into the lane looking for contact with two free throws in mind. I don't think Monte necessarily tries to initiate contact because he is much more talened than players like that...

    Does Monte lack confidence in his shooting?

    Funny that most of the people actually bring valid points to a thread and then there are a few who feel it is worth your time to call a thread idiotic etc. The drop in percentage from 3 is noticeable, but that wasn't really what the question was based around. My observation was him not...

    Does Monte lack confidence in his shooting?

    This isn't a complaint. He is shooting 30% from 3. Just wondered if it was a confidence thing. Simple as that. Pretty easy to move along to another thread if you don't want to chime in with something constructive on this one. I just see guys like Naz and Georges not thinking twice before...

    Does Monte lack confidence in his shooting?

    My post was in regards to his shooting. I should have been more specific and stated his 3 point and mid range shooting.

    Does Monte lack confidence in his shooting?

    Agree, but do you think that him looking to score more often would help or hurt this team going forward?

    Does Monte lack confidence in his shooting?

    It really isn't ripping a player. More like generating a real discussion that can be discussed by fans. It is something I observed and was wondering if others notice the same thing. Thanks for actually giving your opinion though after calling the thread dumb and pointless.

    Does Monte lack confidence in his shooting?

    Was wondering if anyone else noticed the large amount of "long twos" Monte is taking this year? Fred has said on multiple occasions that he doesn't like seeing his guys take those shots (BDJ is guility of this too) but Monte seems to keep it in his arsenal. Is that because he lacks confidence...

    Big 12 Refs Strike Again

    This right here is how I looked at the game. Did Cherry extend his arm to get space on that last shot? Yes. Will 99% of D1 officials call the offensive foul in that spot? No. The 11-19 from the line and 19 offensive rebounds given up along with a slow start is the reason this was an L...

    Big 12 Tourney Hotels

    I'm planning on staying at the Hilton Garden Inn. Little over 2 miles from P&L. $100/night If you are planning on spending most of your time at the P&L this is the route to go imo. Here is the link...

    Iowa Opens as 5.5 Point Favorite

    Pretty apparent Vegas doesn't think BDJ will play. Home court varies but usually good for 2.5 to 3 points on a spread

    ISU a 10.5 point favorite over Georgia State

    This game is made for a guy like Matt Thomas. State will definitely miss his shooting. Georgia St plays a match-up zone so if the outside shots aren't falling tonight it will likely be a one or two possession game.

    Des Moines / Places to watch

    Keg Stand is a Cyclone bar so I'd assume they would have the game on. That is your best bet imo
