**Ohio State vs. Iowa Basketball - 2/20/20 - 6pm - ESPN**

Imagine how good Garza would be if he hadn't slowed down from all that weight lifting in the summer

 

[Mo T]

On the postgame show Fran said “we have 10 quad 1 wins, whatever that means, which I guess is good”.

I hope he's playing dumb.

Incredible watching the highlights of Iowa kicking the shit out of Top 10 Ohio State while 3 starters and 4 of the Top 8 players are sitting on the bench in suits.

It's been a journey to realize that this team is different than past years regarding blowing big leads.

I found myself going "Oh here we fucking go again," when OSU got it under 10, but then Joe promptly drains a three. Then Bakari.

I'm happy.

I think it's a tad early to assume nunge or Patrick are better than Toussaint

Nunge was. Patrick was maybe even this season and when healthy the far more talented recruit.

Nunge was. Patrick was maybe even this season and when healthy the far more talented recruit.

I think Nunge is going to be a good player and maybe already is, but we only found the four guard lineup because he was injured. Playing Connor at the 4 was the turning point of the season, even if we aren't always in that lineup.

I love me some Bakari. Great pickup this year.

Let's not go overboard.

Seems like a really good dude

 

[Thomas Wolsey]

Let's not go overboard.

One year player who has played a huge role in two games, and otherwise seems like a good kid. Not every player has to be great.

 

[Berzerkenpas]

bakari was a great pickup. he filled a need, and he's played a lot of decent minutes at a key position.

 

[6deuce]

He's probably a slight upgrade from Michael Winslow Maishe Dailey. Tough to say though as Dailey didn't get as much PT.

 

[MikeyJoe]

Bakari isn't great, but with the roster decimation Iowa would definitely be hurting without him.

Oooooh right. Good call!

JoeT was limping at the end of the game, hopefully it was nothing serious. He was very disruptive on defense and caused a number of turnovers doubling down on the post. unlike other teams we've played, once osu guys got it downlow it wasn't coming back out

I think he might have just knocked knees on that final play.
Has he had that tape/sleeve on his left calf for a while? Just noticed it last night.

Hadn't noticed

 

[HiawathaHawk]

Offensive ratings last night:
Evelyn 150
Pemsl 147
Kriener 143
Garza 120
Connor 114
Toussaint 106
Wieskamp 105

Looks like that's the first time all year we've had every player +100.

He’s back!

 

[Revolver]

It comes as no surprise that the Hawks are living rent free in Niang’s mind.

 

[HerkyHopeful]

He’s fucking back!

I'm not sure it's been mentioned - I hope DJ Carton gets better, but ha ha ha ha haaaaaaaaaa.

Noticed it too. It always looks like he's got a little hitch in his giddyup but it's probably just the alabama black snake in his pants that throws him off balance.

This is correct and he has had that for a while.

Toussaint is fine.

 

[AZmessDAWG]

Ok good.

 

[Hawkstrat]

Ok good.

Who hurt you?

 

[coff]

Pemsl does this every game and they win the national championship

Might want to check yourself.

Bakari with 15 was something I didn't figure I would type tonight.

This team isn't losing at home and will get one on the road. Book it.

Don't you wonder what Bakari would be had he got with the right program/coach from the beginning?

Not really.

 

[Fritz Fequiere]

Don't you wonder what Bakari would be had he got with the right program/coach from the beginning?

Probably still a player who is productive one out of every five or so games.

Do you guys even understand the concept of what is being discussed? Guy Rucker was really good and played in the NBA.

He played well in an NCAA tournament game against Kentucky.
