LIVEBBALLGAMEOPENTHREAD: HUGGY BEAR

Iowa Hawkeyes @ West Virginia Mountaineers



Huggybear_medium
Just like pimping, coaching basketball ain't easy

Tonight, Iowa faces its first serious challenge of the young season, as the 5-0 Hawks draw 3-0 West Fucking Virginia in the Las Vegas Shootout.  Not only is the game being broadcast on Mediacom Connections and the Hawkeye Radio Network, but it's on SportsNet New York (DirecTV channel 639) and MASN (DirecTV channel 640).  That means I finally get to watch a game without annoying Loading... delays.

So grab a drink and some leftover turkey and join us for the action.

What?

We don’t get the smooth, dulcet tones of Mac McCausland? Now I might actually watch the game with the sound up. Fucking bullshit.

Fuller, Tate, Gatens, Peterson, and Tucker start

No alarms. No surprises.

Huggins isn't wearing the pimp suit

Vegas strenuously objects.

Peterson drives baseline, gets trapped under the basket, throws a wild pass

Some things never change.

He makes up for it, though

Nice pass to Fuller in the lane.

Jesus, we need a point guard

This defense might kill Jeff Peterson.

*Crickets*

First commercial break. We’re not dead yet.

NIce back cut by Gatens

"He had some off-court problems this summer which were dealt with internally"

You can take Bob Huggins out of Cincinnati, but you can’t take Cincinnati out of Bob Huggins.

Jake Kelly gets called for 5-second violation

The only word that can describe his dribbling is “disoriented”

Tucker looks great, hits bomb from the corner. Iowa goes up 11-9.

JR Angle now openly picking his nose at the end of the bench

I actually feel bad for Cobra, whose collegiate career is starting to eerily match my high school career.

Commercial break

WVU is up by 4 after a basket by The Apostrophe.

I’m not going to lie; I’m more focused on making a transfer bid for Patrick Kluivert on Championship Manager 2004 right now.

This is getting ugly

A staggering lack of defense, the seventh turnover in nine minutes, a fast-break layup, an 8-point WVU lead.

Throw in a charge, a 3-pointer, and a travel

Oh, and a 3-point play. We’re getting killed.

This is a blowout

34-13, as Iowa’s offense goes silent and the defense resembles the worst bullfight in history.

WOO

Peterson scores to cut the lead to 19…

Ugh.

We're looking better

The Kentucky guy calling the game called us “frisky”

Still, it’s 41-23.

Iowa is called for its fifth offensive foul of the first half

If I eer needed a spokesman for an advertisement, I would use the guy from the Mega Health Insurance ad. He’s fucking awesome.

Huggins looking sober, clearly thinking about the debauchery later tonight

There is nothing scarier than the thought of Bob Huggins turned loose on the Vegas Strip.

West Virginia's shooting is getting slightly less ridiculous

We’re still down 16, though, and Tucker just stepped out of bounds. It’s the SIXTEENTH IOWA TURNOVER OF THE FIRST HALF. Jesus Christ.

At the half

it’s 48-29 West Virginia. I don’t know which is worse: the turnover number or the 48 points conceded.

That's it

I can talk to myself without all this typing. Barring a miracle comeback, this is HS signing off.

I, for one

appreciate being able to come home from work and have some sort of an idea at what happened in the game, at least the 1st half. Your efforts do not go unrecognized HS, this guy says gracias.

Gracias.

I do have more rhymes than Jamaica got mangos.
