Definitely looks better when it goes in.

[shadow_operative 15932]

GB has had the same shot since HS, he's just more confident now and choosing better shot selection. there's been no change to his form or mechanics.

Need Kai back in the game to add some defense in the paint and rebounding

I was going to bet the under on this game @ 139 but apparently hit the under for the KU vs TCU game tonight.   

I might luck into a win.

[rivin 199]

I like watching basketball this season.

[TexArcher 38076]

This game is a little too close and a couple of these Cyclones can play.

[VinyVango 694]

Our guards have gotten sloppy with ball security and aren’t looking to pass inside ... need to get them back on the game plan

Not much effort to work the ball inside save for a forced dribble or errant pass. Mostly passing around the perimeter and jacking up 3s. If we weren't 6 of 12 from deep this half, we'd be trailing.

(By comparison, we were 2 of 12 from BTA in the first half, yet built up a 10-point lead due to our play inside, mostly from/through Jericho.)

Yeah, can’t put them away.

[LonghornSean 4024]

Blanks is right, we're playing hero ball right now.

[ztejas 43546]

They really need to give guys 6 fouls in college. It's such a dumb, antiquated part of the game.

[rivin 199]

AJ1 looking excellent tonight!

[ztejas 43546]

Andrew Jones has a storied Texas career?

But yeah he's been great tonight.

Ramey especially 

[hookem48 4703]

so no fans at all now? Were they not  letting some in before?

[rivin 199]

Ramey is frustrating to watch more often than not.

Fuck get Ramey out the game.  Not his night.

correct.  They announced it this weekend.  It's an Austin Covid thing.  

[LTtxfan 49373]

Poor last 8 minutes... lost their purpose in offense and lazy on defense.

No way Iowa State should still be in this game...   DAMN

[rivin 199]

Holy shit Coleman!

[shadow_operative 15932]

shut the duck up Lowell.

 

Matt, you keep being awesome. 

[perfectchaos007 6677]

Coleman with the deep 2!

[Js1 85602]

ISU is starving for a win. We just had a super emotional win in Phog. This doesn’t surprise me much 

[SDG 3319]

Coleman just iced them.   

[Braff Zacklin 13665]

I hate that "play," but if he's gonna shoot it like that ...

[NAVY 6747]

Colman with a dagger

This. Iowa state gets to play a top 5 team and we’re fresh off of the biggest road conference win in a decade. This had trap game written all over it. You can’t be hyped for every game. Just close out and regroup next week

Sounds like a typical home game to me.

Do you not hear sandstorm playing?

Why is Greg on the bench; is he a liability in this situation?  

[shadow_operative 15932]

Lowell and Lance won't STFU about Coleman being 90% and whaddaya know? he bricks one. 

[GreenspointTexas 9683]

Sigh

yes 

[SDG 3319]

sad foul attempt.  

[shadow_operative 15932]

it helped us out, but it kinda seems like the refs dropped the ball on that one there. 

edit: just rewatched it, lmao, those refs are so bad for that.

78 - 72 good guys.

[dcar00 14378]

great game from AJ.  

[Braff Zacklin 13665]

Great effort from ISU. And a very happy birthday to Javan Johnson. Dude really kept the Cyclones in it.

As @Js1 and @youdunnf'dup noted, this was to be expected following the sky-high performance at KU ... but that second half wasn't much fun to watch.

Still, a win is a win.

 

[shadow_operative 15932]

Javan Johnson was awesome tonight.

[Tex48 840]

9-1 and #4 team in the country.  LFG!

[dcar00 14378]

Sims had a nice game as well.   10 and 8 and only 1 foul.  back to back with the Kansas game.  If this kid figures it out he could be huge in the tournament.

[HookEm 2468]

We would have lost that game 100% of the time in previous seasons. In some ways, this win was more impressive to me than KU. Iowa State was desperate for a win and they actually have some talent. Plus they were hitting lucky contested shots.

If we played them 10 times, I think we win 9 or 10 - with a solid number of blowouts.

[jeevsie 3740]

Yes, all the makings of a trap game.  Happy with the flashes and the W.
