*** Official #25 IOWA STATE vs Oklahoma Game(Day) Thread ***

We don't really have an alpha type scorer. We're best when Lipsey is getting ball to variety of players in good spots.

Thought Holmes showed signs early but nope.

 

[blutarsky]

Could be a game where Kunc is missed. Not sure.

 

[alarson]

When you watch that game tracker the line on the graph looks like the patient died.

Win probability peaked at 88%. Yikes.

 

[JM4CY]

To be fair, there are a lot of dumb posts on here, blurring the line between sarcasm and stupid.

I don’t think I’ve been in a basketball Gameday thread hardly at all this year. Good to see nothing has changed.

If grill makes another stupid behind the back pass into 2 defenders while in the air, sit his arse. He got cold and started getting really sloppy.

Grill is like Magic Johnson, but without the ball skills, savvy, charisma and aids.

(Pirate dude)

One positive from that half: Caleb had stopped thinking and just plays now and it’s been that way for quite a few games now.

 

[Die4Cy]

Focus goes to hell when we start to give up a good lead. Probably better off playing in a close one anyway.

 

[67CY]

As good as Rob Jones was early in the year, he's been bad lately. He'll snap out of it, but I'm not sure what he brings you right now.

Can’t understand why he can’t make layups

 

[Didley]

We’re 4-8 (50%) from 3.
From 2, we’re only 7-18 (38%)

We only have 5 turnovers? It seems more than that

 

[dahliaclone]

Trying to find positives. If you told me we’d be tied at half earlier today I would have taken it.

But we have to stop being timid and making stupid passes and taking stupid shots.

Have to take the good with the bad for most ISU players. Just hard to watch Holmes take hard shots expecting consistency.

 

[ca4cy]

I didn't hear the announcers say that. Guessing they didn't...

McClure was too busy ******** that it ONLY should have been a foul on King based on a live look for them to show a replay or actually cover what happened.

Some of our bad shots are basically turnovers.

It's the same way he was last year. He was good early in the year though.

OU's first bucket of 2nd half (big to big feed) was a result of a 4-guard lineup. Grill was guarding their 4.

 

[I-stateTheTruth]

Holmes' floater rivals Monte's his senior year. Such a soft shot..

 

[Didley]

Whats normal for % of turnovers from steals. 5 of our turnovers were steals and the other must have been the Carry on Lipsey. Weird huh?

 

[MeowingCows]

Jones has been dead weight this game.

Jones has been dead weight this game.

Really dumb foul there.
