Re: ISU Game Thread
Three reasons we lost:
1. We never doubled Brackins and played him one on one the whole game and he got whatever he wanted.
2. The officiating inside. They called TONS of ticky tack fouls on us inside while the ISU guards were pushing off the entire game. And can anyone explain to me why there was no foul called when the ISU guy completely took out Haak on that one fastbreak layup attempt? WTF I was expecting a flagrant foul, instead there was NO foul.
3. Three point shooting. They just would NOT fall for us. Dammit. Good looks too.
I really feel like we outplayed the Cylclones tonight. No question. We play like that every game, we will win alot. Those threes are going to eventually fall.
Side note, the crowd tonight at the McLeod was great. Its been a long time since I've heard that place, that loud.UNI FIGHT

Re: ISU Game Thread
my first b-ball game of the year, any team.. yikes...
Some horrible decisions, lets hope they get corrected come MVC time.
4 guards, only one can dribble evidently. drive to the basket, easiest way to get your stroke back is a few free throws.
32 three pointers??!?! is that what this offense has become?Comment

Re: ISU Game Thread
The officiating was bad. I'm not going to say the stuff they called on UNI was bad, because it wasn't really that bad. It was the fact that the stuff they called on UNI wasn't called on the other side. It was the lack of any form of consistency that I didn't like.
With that said we lost this game. No adjustment to stop/slow down Brackens. Lack of any offensive flow, lack of shooting, lack of JE (yes, I will say it), lack of shooting, lack of free throw shooting, and lack of shooting.Comment

Re: ISU Game Thread
Great shot by Dunham to tie the game, but he's GOT to be more productive with all those minutes he's getting. He just doesn't look like he wants the ball in his hands.
Ali has to leave his junior college ball behind and make better decisions on shots.
KA looks like a whole different ball player...and for the better. Wow was he impressive.
It's hard to watch us play against a zone. We've got to stop worrying about a turnover and attack the basket. We're letting the defense take us out of our game. Gotta play towards the basket.
I think this team will improve a lot as the season goes. Got some work to do, but I liked what I saw overall tonight.Winning is more fun than losing.Comment

Re: ISU Game Thread
Brackins was pushing off all night with his shoulder and never got called it was good defense but when you get pushed out of the way its hard to block the shotOnly person in the dome with a PURPLE shirt from 2005 and a red hat on

Re: ISU Game Thread
Our biggest problem is no inside game, Jordon is not physical enough down low and has not improved his quickness or jumping ability since he has been here. Koch has improved his inside game but he needs some help. we are missing the 6'7" - 6-9' athlete's that can make a difference. (last years Drake team). If you have no inside game and you can't hit the three ball your not going to win many games.Comment

Re: ISU Game Thread
Good game Panthers. Much more exciting than I thought it would be.
UNI definitely struggled from the 3 pt line. So did ISU, thank god we had a big man to go to inside when our outside shooting doesn't work. You can really tell both of the teams are pretty young, but both have a lot of potential. Good luck the rest of the year!Comment

Re: ISU Game Thread
This team has more potential than I thought going into this year.
I just can't believe we won't play Egelseder in primetime. I think he only got 3 minutes at the start of the 2nd half and we never saw him again. Brackins was a 45% free show shooter. Yeah, he shoot a little better than that from the line, and yes he was quicker, but Jordan was giving him problems on the offensive end. We could have doubleteamed with Koch on Brackins. I wouldn't feel half as bad if Egelseder fouled out hacking Brackins than I do watching our most dominating player ride the pine with only two fouls.
Kwadzo has made stunning progress. I hope he keeps getting better.Comment

Re: ISU Game Thread
Ali is a good shooter. Those shots WILL fall. We actually have some good shooters this year.
I know that Kerwin made the big shot to send it to OT, but he has got to get better or get out. I dont know why he plays the whole game and Montgomery gets ZERO minutes. Montgomery is a solid player and Kerwin looks absolutely clueless out there most of the time.UNI FIGHT
