People don't see it much, but Naz is one of the true leaders of this team - and not just by clutch scoring. He is constantly at the middle of the huddles giving instructions, pump up guys, and rallying when down. Hard to call him underappreciated given the big shots he's made but certainly his role is much bigger than it may appear.

He's like the middle brother. When egos flare. He's the first one to jump in there and say, "bro code time" We can fix this without getting animated. He has been between Big daddy and someone who has made a mistake at least 5 times this month. Big Daddy can get a little heated when someone doesn't do what they are supposed to, and that's a good thing, but Naz is a brotherly mediator. Its really something to watch.

He's the peacemaker that lets the other leaders fix what's broke without "breaking anything"
 
Easy boys, we just barely beat the third-best team in Kansas. Let's not all start sucking each other's ****s quite yet.

Well, that is a deflating perspective!

The other two are Top 10 teams. And KSU is a very good team. And we made a few dumb moves that led to big point swings. They made a really lucky 3 at a key moment. This game was not as close as the ending indicates.

More koolaid anyone?

Discount it all you want but that was a big win against an NCAA bound team. KSU played a lights out game and we still got the job done.
 
Heck of a game. Championship winning play for quite a bit of it as well.

When the 1st half ended with ISU having no success and KSU draining a 3, I had flashbacks of the other losses in which the at the half 3 pointer was a big factor. Nice to see that wasn't the case today.
 
ISU crowd> KSU crowd at least on television. Could've been KU fans helping as well.
I think KU fans wanted K-State to win. At least when Niang drove to the basket and got the and 1, a whole section of KU fans were signaling a travel. Screw them.
 
I'm not discounting the win at all. It's a great win. More just trying to stem the tide of the "can we get a #2 seed now?" and "after we win the Big 12 tournaments" posts. We got a long way to go until Sunday.
