Hate to say it but this offense is better without Keshon (at least a not 100% Keshon).
We were quicker to pass and move the ball out of pnr hedge double teams. Instead of, ya know dribbling into it and a third defender.

Thats not even just Gilbert. It seemed to be a point of emphasis.

Great win. Don’t love DiShon getting let on an island 24 ft from the hope and a guard not going to help him out. But those are minor things.

I’m superstitious so I watched the game, never got on my phone and never got up to go to the bathroom the whole game. I was really hoping the last couple of minutes would have gone a little faster, but I made it. Loved the crowd chanting their love of the refs!!

it blows my everyfuckingmind that we are gonna win by 10+ still not a full strength to a team that beat us by 19 and people are still on here saying 'well we should have won by 30.
Literally nobody remembers ISU down 21 in the second half and forcing OT. College basketball is a game of runs. It can’t be all ISU runs the whole game. It doesn’t work that way.

great win Cyclones! Took care of the ball better, played great def and NEVER let them get in sync. On to the B12 tourney. Get KG healthy, lots of pluses here.

We played hard and looked in-sync for 40 minutes today. Great ball movement and flow. I think the last time we saw a game like that was in January.
Moved better on offense and turned them over a bunch. Would be nice to score more on the TOs. If the lane was open they drove and finished instead of an unnecessary pass out. But still need to keep someone one the arc with eye contact of the driver so if a pass out is needed.

Great game to finish up on. Not perfect, but very good. Rest up for Wednesday and cook.

Offensive flow was iffy at times, but the big thing is they kept turnovers under control.
17 assists. Late shot clock is still an issue, but I thought we attacked the defense much better and made the refs make a call when we had an angle
