Feels great to beat these annoying SOBs.

This thing wasn't even close. They were mugging us with no whistles the entire first half.

I wonder if it was just an off game for them or if Lard and Young are really a mismatch for them. Please give me these guys in the tournament over KU.

So will the loss to Tennessee be a good thing in the end? If this wake-up call can last beyond tonight, I'd gladly take the bad noncon loss.

Incredible. Great energy, and quite a shooting clinic by the Cyclones.
And one super coaching job by Steve Prohm.

Not sure if it's a 'wake up call' situation since the expectations aren't there, just more finding what works with who's available.

Tomorrow's February, though, and it would be fun if they found some real traction and played their way into the NIT or something.

I don’t disagree. He’s “crafty” on D, can shoot, and has a plus handle.

Was just saying that if he got reffed appropriately, he would not be all-world defense.

Yes. All Stars are not allowed to play the way Carter does. Rookies who aren't that talented don't get to play anywhere near as aggressive as he does.

Is he still a good defender playing a completely different sport? Maybe. Nobody would know.
