He had a good game. He'll have better ones. He did, no matter what he says, did not call glass. You wouldn't do that. It was a bad shot but it went in. Just how it goes sometimes.

I disagree. He won't have a better game in college. Maybe at the next level.Quote:

He had a special night and I will gladly eat crow if he continues to shoot as well as he did last night. But I just dont think it will happen.
That diaper dandy is awesome baby. Sorry about that
If you're trying to say that shooting above 80% from the field and scoring over 30 points is a rare feat, I think you're probably right. However, McLemore deserves all of the credit for that; as others have pointed out, he's got incredible skills (elevation, good stroke, etc.) that enable him to perform like this.Quote:

Scoring 30+ while guarded by Babb for most of the game = too much credit. Ok.
Being the best player in the Big 12 is one thing but consistantly doing what he did last night would be amazing! I never once said he wasnt a good player but everyone that expects him to keep shooting that well is crazy. Just look at the Temple game, did he look anything like he did against Iowa State? He has had some good games this year but he has also had some below average games too. If he doesnt shoot the way he did, Iowa State wins.

I totally agree with you but doesnt he have the same elevation and same good stroke every game? Why hadnt he performed this well all season? His previous game was NOTHING compared to last night.Quote:
