That is just flat out unacceptable.

They couldn't miss. Tally and Richardson just took over. They both hit some incredible shots. We on the other hand had plenty of very clean looks that wouldn't drop. That was the difference.

[franstheman]

they also got plenty of easy buckets from horrendous on ball defense and inability to fight through on ball screens. How many times would white get isolated on spencer or richardson and then when (inevitably) he gets beat there was no one withing 8 feet to help?

Wow, that is disturbing

[blairhawk]

that is beyond disturbing.

There was definitely a fair amount of poor defense there. But there were also a lot of possessions where we would play great defense for LONG stretches of the shot clock, only to get beat at the end.

3 suggestions.1. don't play so much friggin zone and put your best defender on the guys who are lighting it up from 3 - 2. learn how to box out and come up with critical rebounds - 3. bench basabe - he has shown no desire to get better and he is not contributing anything when is in the game. peace out.

This. There were some really difficult shots that fell for them. Iowa actually forced some difficult shots later in the second half. It was the wide open looks from 3 for Richardson that actually was the difference. That was the straw that broke the camel's back.

Richardson made his open 3s and Gatens missed.most of his..seemed to change the momentum

Their practice tomorrow is gonna suck.

I can't remember a basketball game I have seen where so a team played great defense for 30 seconds and then fell apart and game up an easy hoop.

Thought maybe it just felt like they couldn't miss. guess I was right. Gatens has to make some shots as a senior.

[1hawkeye1]

I thought our zone did a poor job of rotating and anticipating their ball movement.
Defenses should act, not react.

Defense was bad then at the end of the game, Marble tried 1on 3/4 moves to the hoop. He will learn from this.
