***Official Iowa vs Seton Hall Game Thread***

Tyler Cook can play some. Baer is a great garbage man. Jok will have games where he looks all-world and other where he is invisible. Looks like lots of questions in the backcourt. Should be interesting to see how the year develops.

 

[lovedwatchingLester]

Need to make them work a bit 3/4 court and not go with head fakes and let them walk own the lane

 

[QChawks]

Welp.

Our D is atrocious. We need some fruggin stops.

 

[dbq hawk 32]

Do we have a player that could defend his position in man?

Also, these refs are badddddddd.

 

[fecal particulate]

Not only are they getting some penetration but they get to the basket, too

 

[QChawks]

Cook is a beast.

I still can't believe he's a hawk.

No....the dude had two games in the B1G season and beyond where he scored single digits (8 against Nebraska; 8 against Indiana). The dude is a stud and will lead the B1G is scoring.

It is so refreshing seeing the ball go into the paint and them being able to execute 1 on 1.

 

[meatloaf55]

these refs love that whistle.. both ways at least

+1

I don't miss Woody tripping over his feet.

 

[dawgs_04]

Cook is a game changer. It's so refreshing to see somebody down low with agility, leaping ability, and scoring ability.

 

[meatloaf55]

I can finally hear the crowd

 

[QChawks]

What an ugly sequence there.

 

[MWardT]

I know Jok wants to play 35+ minutes but he looks dead out there

 

[SansSouci]

Hawks should try looking at the rim while shooting once, I bet the shots would be a little closer. This team is ugly.

 

[meatloaf55]

there we go... scorers gotta score!

 

[ThamesHawk]

Thank you Williams!

 

[QChawks]

This is the most athletic Iowa team I've ever witnessed.

 

[fecal particulate]

Richard Pitino's dad has probably touched a lot of people in a lot of different ways.

 

[QChawks]

Good gawd we've missed a lot of bunnies

 

[cg8284]

Jok is as bad on D as he's good on offense.

 

[spiderland]

I wonder how good we would be if we didn't give up so many layups. And then how much better still if we could make layups.

 

[meatloaf55]

for as much as Jok won't play D, he has a great shot

 

[SansSouci]

This is the most athletic Iowa team I've ever witnessed.

True, and the most out of position, poor passing team.

 

[ThamesHawk]

Stupid shot by bohannon

 

[like-woahh]

Good lord, Jok can shoot the rock

 

[dbleagle1]

I really like Bohannon a lot.......

 

[meatloaf55]

just happy we have the lead

 

[like-woahh]

Decent first half, figure out how to stop the dribble drive and they're good to go.

 

[HawkAttackDial911]

Good offense, really bad defense. But it's exciting basketball to watch when the refs aren't blowing the whistle.

I'd say about half of these fouls called on both teams won't be called 5 games from now. Early emphasis on officiating drives me insane.

 

[GunnerHawk]

Need to stop the dribble drive. Too many points in the paint.

Nice first half effort for the Hawks.

 

[lovedwatchingLester]

Well that was fun and another half to go. 44 this half, decent start

 

[CAhawki]

Team is green, but got damn, they are fun to watch. They can leap for damn sure.

 

[QChawks]

 

[lovedwatchingLester]

Hard to figure how nearly every backcourt Hawkeye let AN get into the lane . I can't even try and pick out who was at fault most. To be honest in the games I've seen so far, Moss was as good or better than anyone. Lots of work to do on defense and a ways to go on offense to but there you can see the ability to score from all positions. So my guess after today minutes are going to be handed out by defense ( except for Him)

 

[lovedwatchingLester]

Him being Jok, I hate auto correct

 

[mazda1]

Fun and a lot of potential to be better. They can't play defense, but in fairness I do like the effort. If they keep working on D they will get it. It may be next year, but we can hope it's sooner.

Uhl is showing some offensive restraint, Brady knocks down his only look, and Williams came out aggressive. When they start to play consistantly this group has a bunch of upside.

It will be fun to see if we can wear 'em out.

 

[iabcuda]

Love the fight in these young guys. Half of B1G games are won by the team that wants it most that night.

Silver lining is Iowa is athletic enough to correct it. Just better positioning
