*** Official South Dakota State vs #4 IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

[ZRF]

Rebounding in league play was a weakness. Need to tap into our defensive aggressiveness to go after those boards.

Understatement.

Offensive rebounding wasn't bad but defensive rebounding has been clownshoes. Many on here have tried to chalk it up to the bigs "trying to seal off for the guards to get boards". While are guards ARE agressive and rebound well, it's not the reason our bigs stink. They routinely lack awareness, don't body up, or simply don't grab the ball when it's right there. Against a team like UConn (if we make it that far) that will kill us.

[StLouisClone]

Too many airballs from 12 feet

I did too but I think he just looks winded?

 

[DSM4Cy]

What is Tre King doing there? What is he doing in this game?

Wasn't an airball, it was partially blocked.

Couldn’t find a good enough SDSU board to trash us on?

Anybody got Ward's shot chart?

lol just one glowing dot

As hard as it's been for SDSU to try and be within 10 and the easy we score with tonight, this looks to be a nice blowout in the 2nd half.

Tre King simply lacks awareness. Not consistently bodying, paying attention in transition, or being ready for shots (to get position) are staples of his game.

At times, like in Houston, he puts up a monster game on the boards and has an all around great game. Then there are others, like today, where his heads seems to be in the clouds.

I hope you’re right.

Why do that when I can talk about the game and get banned for making honest statements that gets the rainbows and unicorns brigade to report it? LOL.

Honestly opposing message boards are about the only place one can talk about this team honestly and candidly. It most certainly isn't here (sadly). Also sadly it's the only real Cyclone board out there.

 

[Thomasrickj]

SDSU is not going away. Let’s just murder these guys in the second half.

 

[Jeffreyisu]

Nice offensive foul
