    Defense

    Yeah, we probably don't have the firepower yet to beat the top teams in the conference but the solid defense we are moving toward will allow us opportunities to beat many of the others. The basics now appear to be instilled...I think the team can now start to to tweak some things and change...

    Mike Taylor

    He reminds me of Mike Nurse. Nurse had to play the point for a year when he really wasn't a true pg. I think that might be true of Mike Taylor as well. I guess that it will only make him better for next year. He has really done a better job of understanding when to push the tempo and when to...

    The atmosphere tonight!!!

    I thought Coach Mac really set the tone with the way he got after the zebra on the first foul called on Jiri. He really let him have it. You could really tell that he was jacked up for the game and wanted the crowd active.

    Defense

    Let's talk some defense. I thought the team did a great job changing their MM looks throughout the game. The perimeter guys took good angles and the team really finished the possessions with solid rebounding. I like the way this group has improved on the defensive end.

    Rahshon Clark

    Re: Rashon Clark I seem to remember that Rashon got his pine time when he missed the break-away dunk and Coach chewed him as he came off the court. Maybe I'm wrong but I don't remember seeing him much after that.

    Good Job Jiri!

    Good point. He has made an attempt to adjust his game for the betterment of his team.

    ISU 66, Mizzou 65: Cyclones pull off a stunner!

    This game and the Boise St / Oklahoma game are the reasons why sports are so great.

    ISU 66, Mizzou 65: Cyclones pull off a stunner!

    The ability to get several stops in a row was the difference. This team has come a long way and hopefully can still keep improving.

    ISU 66, Mizzou 65: Cyclones pull off a stunner!

    Wow!! Crazy comeback...great defensive plays. They played SO hard and somehow, didn't quit when things were not going well. Wednesday in Ames should be fun. Go Clones.

    Do we cover the 24 point spread?

    Experienced guards that don't value the ball are annoying. The bigs are often only as good as the perimeter players and their ability / inability to enter it to the post. I thought we showed good improvement in our last game and will not be surprised if we play our best game of the year tonight.

    Do we cover the 24 point spread?

    Hey threeme, what do you think of this? Does this make you nervous?

    How many points is a blowout?

    It depends on how and when the 20 is scored. If a team is down 10 with a couple of minutes to go and starts to foul, the lead can quickly escalate, especially if the team that is down starts to look for the 3-ball. I think 20 is a good place to start but won't always say that is an automatic...

    Workin' Hard

    We just can't grab some of those loose balls...probably a strength issue and some lack of anticipation due to inexperience. I am not giving up on this year! Watch out in years to come.

    Workin' Hard

    I think our effort is OUTSTANDING!! They are a fun team to watch when they play like this.

    You knew it was coming...

    Yes...but maybe it was a product of Alford's motion offensive. With GMac's sets, it would be easier to keep him on the block. He will be a nice addition.

    GMac is # 7 on SI new impact coaches list

    Was theOSU game something that WM wanted?

    Stinson

    To be a "special NBA player", I guess I expect more than what I thought Fizer would ever be able to give. I sure wish we had him on Cyclone roster this year!!!

    i say go with Dunson, the Johnsons, and the future

    I really like the young guys too but there are too many variables in planning for the future. I say play the guys that give you the best chance of winning TODAY...let the future take care of itself.
