They are sticking to Curtis big time.
We need Keshon to step up.

 

[ClonesTwenty1]

Sometimes I almost wish the refs can call their own timeouts so they can reset, because they can get carried away and lose their minds.

Games would be 5 hours long lol

TJ will have a plan for Bradley in the second half. I think we’ll see more drives by Key for open threes by Curt. I like our chances.

 

[HoustonClone]

I'm ok w/ no Chatfield in the 2nd half. Let's be honest, he sux.

He has sucked tonight (so far), but let's be clear, Chatfield has NOT sucked for us this year.

 

[NorthCyd]

They are just hounding Jones on defense. There's a reason he looks off.

This is where we need Gilbert to step up, but he seems to be regressing to just driving to the basket hoping for a foul and when he's not getting them it's a struggle. I wish he would just trust his shot and take rhythm 3s. He passes up a lot of open shots to drive.

Go watch a few replays

We need a guy like Hasan last year who just dunks everything

 

[8bitnes]

Surrended a 16-0 run in just over 4 minutes
18 total points the other nearly 16 minutes

 

[CYedUp]

can Rock be any worse than Chatfield ?

My guess is he is much worse. He is a twig compared to Chatfield

 

[HouClone]

Maybe a game Heise hits some 3's? They aren't guarding him. Noticed a couple times he touched the ball, he was wide open from like 10 feet away. He shot once and scored, other time he looked at the basket and backed up with the ball.

 

[cal-cyclone]

well based on everything that happened in that last 6-7 minutes, we should be feeling really lucky to be down 4. Excellent push that last minute. Hopefully we can elevate our def a bit in the 2nd half. We seemed confused on where we needed to be on a number of those threes they hit.

Btw I bet we have at least 5 points this game on possessions Chatfield kept alive

100% yes he can

How did the flop call lead to that? It was essentially a no call. They didn’t even hit their FT

yeah, okay - we'll just go with your opinion of "the momentum changed on its own". had nothing to do with a bad call. because bad calls never cause swings in a game, especially in a hostile environment.

 

[jcf817]

Also am I going crazy or has Gilbert not been as aggressive going to the hoop even looking for a foul during conference play? I feel nonconference is was absolutely insanely good at that

He’s been getting hacked without getting the fouls, so…idk

It should have been 3 shots for us instead they gave them 1 and completely changed the momentum. Should we have weathered it better yeah but it undoubtedly played a big part in the run.

 

[RagingCloner]

Love is a more talented Peyton Sandfort. He’ll eventually fold

 

[BigLame]

Tamin was fouled on the hand on that “flop”

Tamin was fouled driving baseline on a no-call that led to a turnover

Keshon was raked across the arm on his turnover

Jackson was hit in the elbow on his jump shot that hit only the backboard

Jefferson is being manhandled in the back on about all of his backdowns

Officiating from this “great” crew is not good.

It's a physical game, but their style involves more hand checking & flat out grabs. ISU's style is more bodying up, which normally seems to draw fewer fouls than all the handsy ****. Ah well

 

[Drew0311]

Milan would have been a huge asset in this game. If Lipsey is going off and Milan is a huge threat, you can’t go all in on Jones. That’s why he is so valuable

Guess I'm on to something..... Chatfield is -10 in the first half!!!
