IowaHoosierFan Posted December 6, 2017 Report Share Posted December 6, 2017 Until we prove we can win games we're not supposed too, no one is ever going to ask if they are ready for us. Beat L'ville and ND and then i think that is a valid question. Otherwise i think we start slow, have TO issues and lose going away. This team just is very inconsistent this year and a big game on the road is going to be tough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did not realize that the highly recruited Karma will be suiting up Saturday. Lol. For some crazy reason I like our chances and as u said if nothing else karma does need to show up Saturday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwtaylor1055 Posted December 6, 2017 Report Share Posted December 6, 2017 I want to see the team compete and keep it close. If we can knock down some three pointers(RJ, Green and Colin), I think that will help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless of past performances, the mindset should be, every game, that we are in the dominant position. RMK illustrated that concept perfectly with his mental to physical ratio comment. For too long the program has had a defeatist attitude or at least a cloud hanging over it. If IU basketball ever wants to get back to an elite status, it has to start believing it can first.

I don't disagree with having the mindset but i just don't see us as that talented a team. But we are getting there and i have faith in this coach.

The rate of improvement we've had in taking care of the ball has been incredible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bushmage Posted December 6, 2017 Report Share Posted December 6, 2017 Regardless of a win or loss, I really hope this is a game that we can have a good free throw shooting performance and establish the habit. I think (especially with the time off) we are able to put together a nice game plan and do at least a decent job of sticking to it, but a good FT% game is something we need to correct immediately before this rough stretch is over. De'Ron leaving 6+ points on the table from botched free throws will keep us out of the harder, highly competitive games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to argue with that given our two road performances this year. I do think we match up a little better to UL than we did SH or Michigan IF we continue not turning the ball over. UL is not a good shooting team, so if we make them work for 2s in the half court it could be a competitive game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
