Iowa vs. Indiana Basketball LIVEGAMEOPENTHREAD
Iowa Hawkeyes at Indiana Hoosiers, Jan 29, 2012 5:00 PM CST
Iowa's first in-conference taste of Nebrasketball proved to be rather bitter on Thursday night, but there's nothing to do now but try to wash out that taste with another win. Enter: Indiana? On the bright side, Iowa's won four in a row over Indiana, easily its best active winning streak in B1G play. On the not so bright side, this year's Indiana team is considerably better than the Indiana teams from the past two seasons. Oh bother. Still, this Iowa team has been hard to pin down in conference play, so who knows what we'll see in this game. We might get the team that dominated Michigan from start to finish. We might get the team that played one half of decent basketball against Purdue. And we might get the the team that got blitzed by Michigan State. Unpredictability, thy name is Iowa basketball.
The game is on BTN at 5pm CT.

We're a short team
and what little height we have is pretty damn slow. White has a nice motor running up & down the court, but he doesn’t have quick feet.
As a team
and especially for our big men, we are extraordinarily unathletic
Shouldn't affect boxing out which is our main horrificness.
by clay-born to party on Jan 29, 2012 5:55 PM CST up reply actions
only slightly
harder to locate a guy and box them out if you’re slow. But you’re right; there are basic, fundamental things that most 6th grade teams learn that this team doesn’t do.
LOL, Brommer hacked him as hard as he could
and he still dunked and no foul called
Dear Iowa Men's Basketball,
Defense is a huge part of the game. Please.

I really hate this team right now
They could be pretty decent if they just did little shit like box out or rotate. It’s almost more annoying to watch than when we just straight up sucked.
Yep.
Despite many here thinking we are so very un-athletic, I feel like we have the talent to be a mid-tier Big Ten team. And instead, we drop home games to Nebby and get blasted on the road by 30 against decent-to-good teams.
I’m not saying Fran should be fired, but I feel like he (and plenty of players) have under-performed over the last week or ten days.

Ok, so let's see:
Bryce has had 1,000 turnovers.
2 rebounds.
And we can’t play defense for shit.
Alrighty then.
Bryce has been fucking terrible this year
Just a million dumb passes and turnovers. I was fine with getting May out of the starting lineup, but I don’t know that he’s a huge upgrade at this point
He gets us down the court the fastest
Which is what Fran wants. But his decisionmaking has just been awful this year.
Geez that doesnt even make sense. I could fucking sprint down the court full speed
but it doesn’t do anybody any good.

Take it up with Fran
I’m not putting the guy on the floor. I just understand why he wants him out there.
The premise
might work, if we could defend or rebound. We can’t.
It seems like there were plenty of times when Dean Oliver or Jeff Horner would jog (not so much walk) the ball up the court.
I’m not sure if Andre Woolridge always ran, or if he could just break ankles whenever he wanted.
I usually advocate for running and gunning, but I’d use more guys with more passing. Don’t rely on a turnover-machine.

Another fundamental problem:
so few guys actually slide their feet and keep their arms out. Simple things that all junior high teams practice over and over and over that most of our players don’t do.
I think Keno is doing a really good job this halftime.
