These are 18 yr old kids give me a break. Because they didn't feel like doing so? I watched Isiah Thomas cut up all the time, even before losses. Same with Victor. Same with Dean Garrett. Are you saying that they shouldn't have fun just in case they lose? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if you aren't good you can have fun but if you are good, you can't. So can the 6th man have fun or just part of the time? Can he tell a joke but not a very good one?

IU Scott Posted January 18, 2019 Report Share Posted January 18, 2019 16 minutes ago, Lookingforahard6th said: You complain about IU not showing having any energy before the game and not taking the game seriously, but then say it's ok to be laughing and giggling during warmups. Do you think this is a coincidence?? So you want our players to play like a robot and show no emotion and go through the motions. I couldn't care less what they are doing before the game and I want them to be loose. I played better when I was loose and relaxed before a game rather than being uptight.

13th&Jackson Posted January 18, 2019 Report Share Posted January 18, 2019 This team just needs a win. This is the type of analysis that happens in a 3 game losing streak. If they had held on to win at MD, nobody would have cared about Damezi and Jake joking around before the Nebraska game. Not taking a shot at the OP, we're all just looking for answers.

It seems like Jake, Damezi and Hunter like to clown around quite a bit. Example, Indiana takes the court 4:00 before game like always and I watch Jake Forester shoot a freaking air ball jump shot, an air ball. He proceeds to giggle and look over at Hunter. Jake and Damezi are always laughing during warmups unlike Romeo and Phinessee and others who seem to be taking things seriously. Is there any possibilities or what do people think that maybe some players have "broken some rules" but Arch really can't officially suspend them or he literally would have no team. It just makes zero sense that Damezi wouldn't play. That kid from Ben Davis plays a lot for Michigan State and he was just a 3 star recruit where Damezi was a 4 star. I was at the game and seen some players laughing and cutting up...my take was they were just getting "loose" instead of being a statue....one of Hunters clowning around was to pick up a loose ball and drain about a 25' shot,not once but twice...and I highly doubt there have been any rules broke.

bluegrassIU Posted January 18, 2019 Report Share Posted January 18, 2019 Good grief. Steph Curry is an absolute cut up in warm ups. It is a trick shot exhibition. Yet somehow seems to have just a tad of focus whem the game starts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5fouls Posted January 18, 2019 Report Share Posted January 18, 2019 To be fair, the team's pregame ritual used to include watching C-SPAN, but the shutdown has put an end to that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosierhoopster Posted January 18, 2019 Report Share Posted January 18, 2019 People complained about OG for not showing emotion, and cross-compared Vic who played with enthusiasm and readily apparent joy. Now players are critiqued for having fun before a game.

Cutter Posted January 18, 2019 Report Share Posted January 18, 2019 It's the same thing on here after a bad performance or loss, some people over reacting. I mean being disappointed or unhappy is one thing but to dig deep for drama and personal attacks is over the top. All hoosier fans love IU ball but there are so many more things in life more important Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milehiiu Posted January 18, 2019 Report Share Posted January 18, 2019 It's snowing here today. Over two feet expected in the Mountains, before it ends. Six inches expected in West Laf ? Pshau ! 20 car pile up on I-25, just South of my house, as I type this. Wife just left the house ,and I told her about the pile up. She says to me: "I'm not going that way." And I say to her : " No one else is either." And my plan for Saturday is..... turn on the game. Important things in life. Do what Jim Valvano said to do each day: "Smile."

Lookingforahard6th Posted January 18, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2019 If Damezi can't play ahead of McRoberts and when we only had 7 available players he should have been redshirted. Him not playing is inexplicable, frankly Jake not playing ahead of Fitzner is inexplicable. Why wasn't Forester redshirted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
