dont think he called glass, you wouldn't do that on the run like he was.

But why would they feed him the ball against TCU or TTU? And why would he be as engaged when up 30? I'll bet he doesn't score 33 on 12 shots, or go 6 for 6 from 3, again this year.

I'm not sure what they would be but I'm sure they're about the same as getting bitten by a shark while living in Des Moines. If he has another strong scoring game and shoots above 50% than that would be a very good game for anyone.

Re: To much credit being given to Mclemore
No one can do this every game, if they did I would suspect cheating involved somewhere.

dont think he called glass, you wouldn't do that on the run like he was. He obviously wasn't trying to bank it, but when he shot the ball he probably realized it wasn't going to be good so to himself he called bank when he realized this. That's what I'm trying to say.

Just curious, why? What do you know about his attitude? (honest question)

Re: To much credit being given to Mclemore
I have seen McLemore play 4 times now and he was easily the best player on the floor all 4 times. This guy is not overrated at all.

Re: To much credit being given to Mclemore
The kid basically hit a game winner against us. He is a good player but he made a lucky shot. Move on....

Re: To much credit being given to Mclemore
He's good and legit. I don't think he had an overly amazing game though in the sense of him doing anything crazy (except the game tying 3). He made his shots and efficiently. How it's supposed to be done, but I didn't get that kind of "special" vibe from that game other than him making his jumpers.
He will go to the NBA where he'll be probably decent. Real smooth jumper..not overrated, but I do agree he hit some lucky shots. That's what happens sometimes. C'est la vie

Re: To much credit being given to Mclemore
We have no business calling out players who banked a buzzer beater at the end of the game. Scotty's buzzer beater three against OSU at home was a banked shot “I told you, I don’t care if you’re black or white. I don’t care if you’re rich or poor. I don’t care where you come from, whether it’s Texas, Florida, California, or right here in the state of Iowa, I don’t care about any of that… But what I did care about is moving forward from that day on, that we were one team." -Paul Rhoads -
