Thanks, Doc

Mathieu blocking Aaron White's shot! Wowowowow

 

[crazysauce]

Oto looks like a damn fool out there.

 

[MadtownGopher]

Fun game so far.

 

[mnsportsgeek]

I like the pace. Mathieu is so much more calm than he was at the beginning of the year.

Oto looks like a damn fool out there.

Quite the sequence when he decided to pull back instead of go after the loose ball only to stumble over his own feet, fall down, and become useless.

 

[MadtownGopher]

McNeil is going to be a nice one.

He may have the slowest reaction time I have ever seen.

Mathieu w/2 early turnovers.. Ahanmisi appearance. We...shall...see...

 

[mnsportsgeek]

Walker's footwork looks much quicker than it's been in the past.

 

[MadtownGopher]

Really impressed so far. I don't even think we've played particularly well, but we have the lead and the ball.

 

[Winasota Gopher]

What a big 4-5 min from the bench....

Pace is firmly in our favor at the moment, Iowa is far better served slowing down vs us.

 

[Winasota Gopher]

I cannot wait to see what this style looks like with athleticism at the 4 and 5

 

[MadtownGopher]

King needs to work on his footwork. He travels A LOT.

King needs to work on his footwork. He travels A LOT.

It's been very well documented he's outclassed.... Just has to keep working....

Having a terrible game when we need him....

If we had a big that could dunk from 2 stationary feet......

Not a fan of Oto and King out there at PF and C.

 

[mnsportsgeek]

We need to survive the rest of this half with both bigs on the bench. Then we need to stop fouling in the 2nd half.

 

[Gold Vision]

Man, our frontcourt is awful today. Missed bunnies, fouls, and getting destroyed on the boards. King has the yips today

Provide alternative please, 2 fouls on both our 5s....

 

[Dr.Don]

Provide alternative please, 2 fouls on both our 5s....

That is what we need to understand...Ya use who ya got based on the circumstances.

 

[Winasota Gopher]

That is what we need to understand...Ya use who ya got based on the circumstances.

Some of us understand it doc, some of us enjoy shouting the obvious.... Over and over and over

 

[Gopherguy0723]

I loved that crossover that led to a three.

 

[mnsportsgeek]

We are in some moderately serious foul trouble and holding serve. just gotta get through these 2 minutes.

 

[Monty519]

Iowa's been kinda sloppy with the ball. That last turnover...hahaha wow

 

[big10guy]

King and Oto are just not good enough to play a lot of minutes at this level, especially at the 4-- undersized and lack offensive skills. What's the story on Buggs, still hurt? Mo looking very active today, need to get some consistent offense from him as season goes on.

 

[joshvanklomp]

Provide alternative please, 2 fouls on both our 5s....

I'm happier with Austin at the 4 now

 

[gopherMD]

Why is Joey King in the building much less on the court?

 

[diehard]

Just a hunch, King is overthinking the game due to a lack of confidence (yeah I know they say otherwise). He could ignite at any time, I hope. He could become the big spark plug we need, I hope.

 

[Winasota Gopher]

Sorry to say but Hollins n Hollins are absolutely carrying us... Their demise has been greatly exaggerated.
