33 minutes last night.

Because he got pushed around physically. Lindell is much physically stronger. And talen was playing well. Hell he had a layup off an out of bounds play, and turned it down.

Until he air balled that wide open 14 footer off an OOB play.

The original point here was that things go so much better when he's on the floor. If you're making the case that last night Lindell needed to be on the court instead of TH, you're picking a really, really bad game to take that stance. THT had a decent game offensively but got his doors blown off several times on switches by the KU guards.

TH needs to be on the floor as much as possible.

It still amazes me people wanted Wigginton to sit the nonconference games when he was ready and Lard to sit this past Saturday against Okie St. These guys needed to play.

This is not that complicated. Kansas upped their physicality in the second half. Tyrese is not as strong as Lindell. Lindell had a bad game. He got out over his feet with the ball, and struggled.

Did you watch them knock him off the ball and see him get run off of picks, just like every one else.

And tyrese had a wide open layup off a great out of bounds play he backed away from because he shied away from contact.

TH is the future and will be an all time great at Iowa State. He will get stronger and grow into an NBA player.

We played two good games against them. Whether Iowa State is better or not will reflect in the final conference standings.

LW absolutely killed us tonight. And Lards 5 minute contribution didn’t help
In all fairness, he played six minutes. It’s frustrating, especially when two days earlier they combined for 26 points. I really thought that was the sign that they were ready to be valuable contributors again. Guess they still have a ways to go.
