He gets stuck because once he gets in one of his dribbling crusades, the offense stops moving and watches.

I'm underwhelmed by his ballhandling in the lane but when he is in there he needs more cutters.

Very easy things guys should automatically do, is if their guys goes to help on the ball, they cut to the rim.

During the time out the players of color were all hugging each other put they were not close to the other 13 white dudes. I don't throw this shit around lightly. And I love that a former poster said I'm a racist against my own race.


Neither here nor there. I don't care, but Fran has a questionable history

Interesting that they grouped together like that and I dont want to use the word 'segregated'. They probably all get along and there is no racial aspect and in a maybe moment of happiness they just gravitated to each other that way.

I am not aware or dont remember any type of race element in Fran's history. But, we all know the Irish in Boston ever got along well with the african americans there and Fran being from Philly, who knows.

Harding has a bad habit of dribbling without purpose. He get's into the lane just below the elbow and picks up his dribble with no one to pass to. Part of this is on his teammates for not getting open, but a pg needs to know better. And he cannot finish at the rim over bigger defenders.

He was a mess last night. On that one breakaway late in the game he received a pass with a defender right behind him. Iowa needed to run time off with the lead. Instead of taking the ball and avoiding defenders to run off clock he tries taking it to the hoop and of course gets it blocked. It was the same as another turnover. Unbelievable bad decisions from him all night long.

Well it wasn’t the same as a turnover because he got the rebound.

When he's dribbling into the center of the key he's already drawn in 2-3 defenders clogging the area around the basket. It's on him to locate 3 point shooters in the direction of where the defensive help came from and get them the ball.

You're correct, but my point stands. It was another in a long line of bad decisions that he made last night.

Fran just landed a top transfer from U of Miami. African American, if it matters....

Anyone else notice Ullis got 1/2 the minutes of little Hoiberg and zero points. Not quite a good transfer decision.

Coach Hoiberg must be a rascist...

Kind of my point. If Freeman or others cut to the basket when he drives, Harding is pretty good at finding them. He isn't particularly good at getting a shot off among the trees.

 

[Hawky4361]

He outta eligibility and wasn't impressive in 1st half

He is a sophomore....
