[NevadaHawk]

Sandy for 3

 

[LaQuintaHawkeye]

Cmac…just pass it to Sandy

 

[longliveCS40]

Played a long stretch there without Kris. Let's hope he's rested and goes off before halftime.

 

[Bro D]

Connor, give the damn ball to Sandfort ffs

 

[Franisdaman]

Payton for 33333333333333333

again

 

[Hawkfan_08]

Time for more zone?

I would be down.

Played a long stretch there without Kris. Let's hope he's rested and goes off before halftime.

Why's he on the bench?

 

[Phenomenally Frantastic]

Sandfort is the shooting threat, if PMac were a team player he would start thinking more about how to get Payton open looks.

 

[longliveCS40]

Why's he on the bench?

Not sure. Doesn't have 2 fouls. I really wonder if he's hurt. I know I keep saying that but all signs point to that.

 

[HawkRose]

I don’t doubt Pmac is a team player, his bball IQ is just extremely low for a coach’s kid

 

[longliveCS40]

34-34 with 3:13 to play first half.

 

[iahawkeyes17]

That group before timeout awful defensively. Need least perkins or ulis out there all times.

 

[longliveCS40]

Perkins with the wide open threeeeee. Assist Rebraca.

 

[kzoohawk80]

Kris still on the bench, really?

 

[NevadaHawk]

Perk 3

 

[longliveCS40]

Ulis for three! It's raining threes now.

 

[Franisdaman]

Perk for 33333333333333333

 

[NevadaHawk]

Ulis 3

 

[longliveCS40]

Kris still on the bench, really?

Gotta be hurt or sick, right?

 

[kwik44]

Listen, if you're going to start making the 3's, then you sure as hell want to defend them!!

 

[Franisdaman]

ulis for 3333333333333333333

 

[Chishawk1425]

Pound the over. We need this win badly.

Easy $$

 

[The Iowa Mahomie]

Iowa might as well play zone. They can’t defend or rebound.

 

[Franisdaman]

MSU for 3333333333333

wtf

 

[GHawk]

Sanfort is making some 3s , but he is killing us on D.

 

[BubsFinn]

Sissoko's 5 foul was finally called as his 2nd.

 

[longliveCS40]

Sanfort is making some 3s , but he is killing us on D.

That's what you have to live with. He'll never be a good defender.

 

[Franisdaman]

nice stroke from Fil at the FT line

hope that continues

 

[longliveCS40]

42-39 Iowa with 15.5 seconds to half. Rebraca mauled and no call.

 

[justinjdry]

Wonder why so many Iowa players have red flushed looking skin and look like they're about to faint on the floor today

 

[Buffalo43]

Philp should have kicked that one out but having a nice game

 

[Hawktagonapus]

It always goes in

 

[CarterHall]

42-42.

 

[longliveCS40]

Another wide open 3 for MSU. The game with 5.3 seconds to half.

 

[Buffalo43]

Another horrible close out

 

[Hawkfan_08]

We had 2 fouls to give. We did nothing.

MSU did it.

 

[NevadaHawk]

The score is closer than I expected. The hawks will have to play a better second half.

 

[Phenomenally Frantastic]

I don’t doubt Pmac is a team player, his bball IQ is just extremely low for a coach’s kid

It sure is confusing. Doesn’t seem to know his role on this team. He thinks he is a scoring threat but consistently when he is on the court he is the 3rd or 4th best scoring option.

So why does he chuck off balance 3s and drive into traffic to take weird angle hook shots against 2 defenders? These are low percentage attempts. They are forced shots. Like unforced errors in tennis. Yet he does them every single time he is on the court.

 

[iahawkeyes17]

Great call on the zone… Connor out of position. He and ulis both go for same guy leaving open corner 3.

 

[luvmyhawks]

Hawks go on the road and can’t hit the broad side of a barn. Teams come to Iowa city and can’t ****ing miss. Frustrating.
