Tinsley or Morris

[heitclone]

Monte is so smooth he makes a lot of things look easy, I think that's a big reason he doesn't get the credit he deserves, when being compared to a flashy guy like JT. People forget the plays Tinsley forced, for every amazing play there was a smh moment. I agree JT is the better player to this point but to me its only about what he accomplished, not that he had more talent. IMO Morris will pass him up in the next couple years.

Anyone have the .gif of the pass Monte threw Ejim in the Tourney? I cannot find it. That pass is insane.

Possible the best I've ever seen.

Who's the all time best point guard in ISU history? I take Tinsley

I'm not reading all 100 replies in this thread, but the correct Answer is Eric Heft.

Hefty > Jacy > Morris > Tinsley > Bayless > Blalock

If you consider Hornacek a PG, then he's in there obviously.

No doubt for me, Morris!
Tinsley had some on-court brain cramps, like the Hampton game where he pulls up for a jumper with 0:29 and a 1-pt lead, when all he had to do was dribble out the clock and/or wait to get fouled (see 2:30 mark in video).

Morris would't mess up like that and he he would't have smoked some brain-cramping substances to overwhelm his decision making skills.

Tinsley had his moments, for sure, but the great far out-weighed the bad.

I'm not sure what you had to enter to search for this horrible clip, but I hope it's the first thing that pulls up when you search for anything else over the next year. That should be your punishment.

I went years refusing to stay at a H****** Inn.

Tinsley was great for his teams, Morris is great for last year/this year's teams. We would not have been a 2 seed with Morris at PG instead of Tinsley.

[WhatMeWorry]

Ask my destroyed cell phone in a landfill somewhere its opinion. It ain't Tinsley.

 

[WhatMeWorry]

I'll never have a good taste in my mouth with Tinsley based on his last two games. And there was a price to pay for his razzle dazzle. Turnovers.

 

[Cyientist]

Gap narrowed.

 

[Thomasrickj]

How about instead of turning this into a ******* contest, ISU fans just be happy that we had a guy as good as Tinsley and be happy that we currently have Morris.

 

[Cyclonepride]

When it comes down to it, I think it really depends on what you need. If you have a team in need of both a point guard and a scorer, Tinsley is the man. If you need a floor general who complements your other weapons and makes it all go, Morris is your guy.

Saving my answer for the tournament, after the first game when we are a 2 seed.

Haven't read the whole thread- can I say Will Blalock? :biggrin:

No

 

[bringmagicback]

I don't see how you can say that this team (or any team) wouldn't be better with an All American and big12 POY as the PG. Mel Mel was one of the best college PG in the past 20 years, monte is great and im glad we have him but Tinsley is on another level.

I watch that Tinsley video from the Colorado game several times per year. Pure comedy and awesomeness. Can't believe he slid around on the floor like that in a real game not involving the Washington Generals.

Tinsley or Morris for Hoiball? Morris.

Tinsley or Morris for basketball in general? Tinsley.

That was ridiculous

 

[CascadeClone]

Tinsley was Superman with the ball. He was a video game character with the cheat codes on. In terms of what he was capable of doing, he is far above Monte.

However, Morris might be more effective and successful before it's over.

I hope we are having the same arguments about whoever comes after Monte 3 years from now.
