True and teams played faster then as well and took chances. Also coaches didn't micro manage s much back then as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shoot your way out of slumps, confidence issues or stagnant offense. Run the whole time and shoot as soon as you get any space. The more shots you take, the more likely you are to hit them. We know we don't shoot particularly well so we run a slow offense. I say we're doing it backwards. Get more posessions. More shots at at the rim. More up and down the floor. Go fast and shoot quick. Wear them down with our relentless tempo and in your face defense. Hell, go full court press the whole game. I am telling you, it will work. Averages will win the day. And i am 100% serious. i totally agree. i just wouldn't shoot more 3s in the process. the more we run the better shots we should get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree ! I’d love to see us up tempo the offense, not to shoot more 3s to shoot more layups because we’re not good shooters! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NCHoosier32 Posted January 7, 2021 Report Share Posted January 7, 2021 So...it is early and I haven't had enough coffee, but if we were to win tonight, it is likely we'd be tied for 4th in the conference if I'm seeing it right? Don't worry, I haven't drank the kool aid, I don't think we'll win tonight, but there's always a chance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H00sier Posted January 7, 2021 Report Share Posted January 7, 2021 Let’s hope the team comes dialed in and focused, can’t afford to get down big early. 🤞🏻 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CincyHoosier Posted January 7, 2021 Report Share Posted January 7, 2021 I think we will be demoralized by the 3 ball. This will be a tough one to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NCHoosier32 Posted January 7, 2021 Report Share Posted January 7, 2021 I want to get back to this instead of arguing with the usual suspects about the usual things: So...it is early and I haven't had enough coffee, but if we were to win tonight, it is likely we'd be tied for 4th in the conference if I'm seeing it right?

Euroclydon Posted January 7, 2021 Report Share Posted January 7, 2021 We know how this game goes. IU racks up fouls at an alarming rate while Wisconsin demonstrates how to mug any player near the basket with the ball. But it really comes down to Trice and Davison. If they punk Al and Rob it's going to be ugly. If IU's guards go at them hard, it will be a close game. There is just no recent history to suggest IU will get a W here. It will take them playing a more complete brand of basketball. They can't sleepwalk to a 10 point deficit by the first tv timeout and expect to win or have extended scoring droughts. They will have to actually knock down open shots. It will be a good measuring stick game if nothing else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tdhoosier Posted January 7, 2021 Report Share Posted January 7, 2021 I can't remember where I heard or read this and I'm too lazy to look it up, but Wisconsin leads the conference (possibly the nation) in 2 point FG%. That said, IMO, the only way we have a chance tonight is if 3's are falling. Not having Armaan is the first kick in the coconuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's that word again..."Aggressive." You know, I've been posting on IU basketball forums, starting with the old Star-News forum in 1999 (talk about the wild west...now THAT was where people reveled in aggressiveness)...And I'm just not seeing it... I don't think good, healthy debate is bad at all...and I've yet to see anyone call you "a terrible fan" over your opinions...well, @IU Scott maybe, but he's the designated forum junkyard dog and weeds out the real trolls...and his bark is worse that his bite ...Some just disagree...I sometimes feel like you take my, or anyone else disagreeing with you as some sort of blasphemy... As I've said a million times...I'm an optimist by nature...I subscribe to the Henry Ford saying, "whether you think you can, or whether you think you can't, you're right." I think we're going to win, or at least have a CHANCE to win every game...even during the lean Crean years... If I didn't think that way, I wouldn't watch at all... That's just me though...
