*** Official Alabama State vs IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

[Gunnerclone]

It’s refreshing to see a defensive scheme that isn’t impossible to execute.

 

[Gunnerclone]

Is his game more a 2 or wing? ESPN has him as a G, but when I saw his block he looked like a F from a body movement.

He’s a forward.

Playing good defense. But can't buy a shot.

Looks like it'll be a tighter game throughout unless ISU can get to the paint and get them to foul.

We couldn’t throw a basketball into the Grand Canyon tonight.

You can have a small-ish, athletic team that bases its game on good defense. But ir reaaaaally helps if you can shoot the long ball. It appears that this is going to be a struggle this year.

Like I said earlier, the early book on Iowa State is to zone them. Our perimeter shooting has been way off. We just have to get the ball inside before we fling it up from 3.

Pretty sure Kunc is going to be the scapegoat this year who plays a ton of minutes for who knows why.

 

[GlenEllynClone]

This appears to be another Cyclone team that is not a good 3 point shooting team!

Can’t watch, but 0-7 3s…are they getting good looks and just not falling?

 

[werdnamanhill]

We ar going to see a ton of zone this year if we continue to shoot this poorly. Gonna have to learn to attack it, or to shoot better.

 

[Nader_uggghhh]

He's drifting on everything. That's trouble when you have a high arcing shot like his.

Yeah he's almost never balanced when shooting and always on the move. He does make it up everywhere else. At least it's something obvious and fixable.

I don't think we are an 0-7 type of team but we wont shoot well from the 3 most nights i dont think.

 

[Gunnerclone]

ASU is going to be in big foul trouble at their current pace. I don’t think we’re forcing any 3’s which is good.

 

[helechopper]

I know we’re down 2, but look at how fast our guys got into defensive position when Bama St. started the break. So freaking nice to see.

We should drive and force more fouls on them, especially if the 3 isn’t dropping for us.

Nice job Gabe

Grill is a machine. He’s going to fulfill the prophecy that he originally came with. Dude is all out all the time.

 

[loyalsons4evertrue]

We've already seen a ton of zone this year.
