Around SBN: Win or Lose, Boston Celtics' New Big 3 Era A Success

We're Talkin' Iowa-Nebrasketball LIVEGAMEOPENTHREAD

Iowa Hawkeyes at Nebraska Cornhuskers, Feb 29, 2012 8:00 PM CST


EVERYONE JUST CALM THE FUCK DOWN, OKAY?  I GOT THIS.  Mandatory Credit: Bradley Leeb-US PRESSWIRE

When last we met, Iowa was doing something it's done with depressing regularity over the last two decades: lose a game at Assembly Hall in Champaign, IL. Now we head west for a fresh experience: playing Nebrasketball in its home environment, Lincoln, NE. The last time Iowa played Nebraska in Lincoln was the same year that America celebrated its 200th birthday: the great and glorious year of 1976. The Iowa-Nebraska basketball rivalry then went into hibernation for the next three decades, only re-emerging this year when Nebraska decided to put on its B1G boy pants.

Our first meeting went poorly: Nebraska rode a red-hot shooting effort from Cameron Richardson to a 48-point second half and a mild upset win over Iowa at Carver-Hawkeye Arena. In a season with no shortage of disappointments, that certainly ranks as one of the lowest moments. Now we get a chance for revenge. Now we get a chance to move a step closer to finishing a season with an above-.500 record for the first time since 2007. Now we get a chance to keep alive our hope of playing a postseason game somewhere. Iowa's played better in the 8 games since that earlier defeat, going 4-4 and grabbing some very nice wins over Indiana and Wisconsin. Now's the time to transfer that level of play to a road game.

The game is on ESPNU at 8pm CT. (I'm not sure if it's available via ESPN3.com or not.)

The standard open threading rules apply: no links to illegal online streams, no religion, no porn, no politics, no slurs, no douchebaggery, etc. Go Iowa.

by Black&Gold.Forever on Feb 29, 2012 7:37 PM CST up reply actions  

He got involved quite a bit, but he seemed a bit off on his touches.

This could be attributed to him being a late call-up. He was only called in because LanDo is out because of bronchitis. He had been training with the U-23s for the Olympics. He’s still learning.

He should've done better with that shot in the 10th.

And there were a few times where he seemed a little overwhelmed by the Italian defense, as I’m sure many players have over the years.

It's been like that all year, I don't get it

He’ll routinely get great position and our guards will just ignore him. Last year we actually made an effort to get him the ball and he did some good things, this year he’s an afterthought.

He was outstanding in both of those

He really bothered Taylor a lot with his length. I think sometimes he struggles a bit to stay in front of quicker guys though. He’s definitely got the most defensive potential on the team though. If he improves moving side to side and gets a little stronger he could be absolutely dominant with this long arms of his.

It felt like they were trying to widen the attacking space

Maybe to pull Italy’s defense apart a bit so Clint and Jozy would have space to cause trouble.

Also felt they left probably another goal out there.

I think it's safe to say that both teams left goals out there.

I mean, Italy had a couple of scorchers that just had the bad fortune of being directed right at Howard. It was a really good win, though. They just need to be able to capitalize on it moving forward. Beating fucking Mexico at the Azteca would be a nice start.

They were awful in the 1st.

But young/inexperienced teams often play down to the level of competition. They really showed me something by playing a steady, workmanlike 2nd on the road on senior day. This wasn’t the ho-hum that people are making it out to be. If this were three years from now then, yeah, but this was a good showing.

Good teams run Nebraska right out of the fucking building on a night where they shoot like that. I’m happy to get the win, but it was not pretty at all. We struggled a ton in the first and let them hang around when we easily could have buried them towards the end. Nebraska is a baaaaaad team.

This wasn’t another episode of The Matt Gaten’s Show, but a performance where at least 4 players had to score in double figures to get it done. It may have been ass-ugly for a while, but this is an Iowa team that has been absolute shit for a while.

There's no way

The reputation Iowa coaches have in the league definitely helps him a lot, as did the fact that he was so good right away. I think he’s a genuinely good player and worth a first rounder, but I don’t think he looked like a Top 10 guy this year. He’s got plenty of potential to get better though, especially if he can add some strength.
