*** Official #8 IOWA STATE vs #16 Kansas Game(Day) Thread ***

[HouClone]

One on one offense now. Only thing that is working sadly. Not sustainable.

 

[madguy30]

I didn’t say that was the only problem. I’m also referring to other games. He takes the nice guy approach and it doesn’t pay off.

Nice guy by constantly in their ear questioning calls?

How did flipping out work out last game?

 

[NYCYFan]

Why are we limiting Jackson's minutes? He's one of the few players doing well this game. Chatfield is bringing nothing.

I don't remember the last time Chatfield brought anything. He hustles but that's it.

 

[cyclones500]

The good news is that it can’t get much worse than this

That's what I thought after the KSU game.

 

[Clonefan32]

Jefferson just got hammered on that shot. Wtf

Did you watch the replay? That was a clean block.

 

[Walden4Prez]

The Oban 14 has sure been tasty tonight…

 

[jcisuclones]

Milan isn't saving this team

No he’s not going to come out and score 50 per game, but adding him back to the rotation so we don’t have to rely on absolutely **** all off the bench will be a godsend

 

[Die4Cy]

TJ please try something different. Make some sort of an adjustment to the scheme. Being stubborn isn’t working.

Just realize that nothing different is coming. This team is only built to play one way and they aren't getting it done on either end of the floor.

 

[Darius Bieber]

At this point stop driving and just take every three. No point in driving into the lane and turning it over.

 

[Thomasrickj]

I would say the effort is far better than KSU.

I would disagree and say the effort tonight is much worse. Iowa State at least played decent ball for the first 10-12 minutes against K State. They haven’t put together two good minutes tonight.

 

[Pharmacy99]

Please ban Darius Bieber.

 

[Cy Hard]

Loved the replay of the last block and he never touched the ball. Shoved Jefferson enough to block it.

 

[DSM4Cy]

I don't remember the last time Chatfield brought anything. He hustles but that's it.

Both he and Heise have actually regressed. It’s not just that they’re the same guys, but their strengths have evaporated.

 

[cyatheart]

Get TCU at home. That’s either a get healthy game or it ends the season.

I don't know, we are really easy to guard....nobody moves

 

[ClubCy]

I felt like we had so much depth to start the season.

Now: whar depth?

Better competition. Easy answer

 

[fsanford]

Do our guys seriously not know you’re allowed to kick the ball out when you drive? I mean time after time again it’s ridiculous

And we clank a 3? That is the problem at the moment. They don't trust anyone to hit a shot

 

[Stumbles]

For a while I saw this on the game tracker.

Went from 10 minutes to 1 minutes remaining. Didn't know there was a mercy rule in basketball!

 

[singsing]

Why don’t we ever box out on defense?

It's easier to stand and watch?

 

[HoustonClone]

Gotta hit the bottom to bounce.


It's painful to watch, but we all need to remember, the guys on the court and TJ have to be even more frustrated

The only thing that makes humans (and apparently teams) change is when the present circumstances are more painful than the change that needs to occur to do something different. I think we are there, yes?

 

[cyatheart]

I would say the effort is far better than KSU.

It was for the first half, this 2nd half has been going through the motions
