*** Official West Virginia VS IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

[Smallz0r]

Not sure how it's not 5 seconds when the guy deliberatynheld it to avoid throwing it in and 7 seconds elapses.

 

[bosco]

Yes, but we can also not be unreasonable and call someone "clearly outcoached" 5 minutes in. That's ridiculous and premature. Kind of like your few and far between ejaculations.

I didn't say Prohm was out coached. I said that WVU was well coached and the team was less so. The way the teams were trying to execute it seemed apparent.

 

[AgronAlum]

Who says i'm blaming the game on Prohm? Just commenting what I'm observing. Can we be adults and be critical when things are not rainbows and unicorns?

Clearly seeing a well coached team vs. a lesser coached team atm.

Uhhhh. Yes we can. But expect to get called out when your opinions are wrong.

 

[CoKane]

Sounds like I made a good call to do homework instead tonight

 

[CarlHungus]

That was really smart of West Virginia to wait to inbound the ball at the end there. I've always wondered why more teams don't do that in that situation

Down by 4 when WV scored 12 pts from way off target 3's that banked in. Not bad.

We have to be able to keep pushing the ball like this all game long though. If we do our normal one guy goes 1 on 5 while the other 4 stand around in the 2nd half, we're done for.

Will you also post positive comments if we are winning?

 

[Cyclonepride]

Very good half. We outplayed them once we got acclimated. Need to tighten everything up, but given the amount of bad luck, down 4 is pretty good.

Also- how in the living **** can Adrien run into Holden with the body, swing both arms down like axes, grab straight across the arm, and not get called for a foul?

 

[Smallz0r]

Stop arguing about Prohm. The second half is where he has struggled with adjustments. We will see what he does.

 

[bosco]

Uhhhh. Yes we can. But expect to get called out when your opinions are wrong.

That's well like your opinion man.

 

[ISUAlum2002]

Well, they can't possibly bank in three 3's in the second half.

Yes, except Naz scored with 36 secs left, so it should have been a 5 second call if the shot clock was off when they inbounded, correct?

 

[Iastfan112]

Those freaking banked threes....

 

[bosco]

Check my history in this thread a lot of warm fuzzies there if you stop focusing on what you want to see.

 

[CycloneBBFan]

Three very cheap n sleazy banked 3's. Pure luck. ISU should be leading by half.

 

[Smallz0r]

Yes, except Naz scored with 36 secs left, so it should have been a 5 second call if the shot clock was off when they inbounded, correct?

Yeah it's one thing to chase down the ball but he blatantly held it staring at the clock before giving it to the inbounder.

 

[CarlHungus]

Yes, except Naz scored with 36 secs left, so it should have been a 5 second call if the shot clock was off when they inbounded, correct?

The 5 second count doesn't start until West Virginia picks up the ball, which was at about 34 i think

 

[clonedude]

Did West Virginia just waste 7 seconds before in bounding the ball to get the last shot?

Yep, that's what I thought.

 

[CycloneVet]

No way there have been roughly even fouls committed

 

[CycloneDaddy]

5 count doesn't start till the player possess the ball behind the line. I would like to see the clock stop with 1 minute left in the 1st half. Iowa State was penalized for scoring early that possesion.
