Basketball PREVIEW/LIVE THREAD: Rutgers Basketball versus Iowa Part II

[Knightmoves]

Wow these guys make everything.

We are shooting well but will Iowa ever miss?

Murray the best player in the B1G?

 

[fluoxetine]

That's actually completely wrong.
If extends out an elbow length - shooting the ball.

The understanding of the cylinder rule is a little shocking for such a usuaally well informed board.

“The cylinder is an area for the offensive player to start a basketball play, which is start a shot, a dribble or a pass. It’s defined as the hip area, the rear area, and the space in front of the offensive player when his elbows are bent and he’s holding the ball in front of him,” Cahill said.


Cahill said that interpretation will be interesting when a defender is clipped, perhaps in the face, and the foul is called on that defender for invading the offensive player’s cylinder.

“The whole purpose of it is to create more movement by the offensive players. I think early on in the season, we may see more fouls called. But I think players, coaches and officials will all adjust and it will get into a flow as the season progresses,” Cahill said.

It may have been the right call but I think we need to launch Bo into the sun anyway, just to be safe.

Its crazy how many farm boys flock to this thread already.

We should give them some rhythm, cooking, and phallic extension tips while they're here though.

 

[bac2therac]

gotta force some turnovers

 

[gregkoko]

Defense is sorry today

Defense has looked fine in the second half, they're just hitting everything

 

[greenknight]

That was a walk 3 step at top of key

I just rewatxhed I was wrong it was 4 steps

 

[ColonelRutgers]

It’s nice that the ball is starting to go in but we aren’t doing anything to make them uncomfortable. Every guy on their team scores at will.

 

[RUJMM78]

Rutgers scoring on most possssions but can't stop Iowa on offense.They are on pace to score at least 80 points.Baker having a terrific game.

 

[Scangg]

Geo playing very well today.

Might be time to put McConnell on Murray every once in a while?

It's time

 

[FIJI'83]

We will soon make a run

 

[mildone]

If they stay in can’t miss mode, it’s gonna be really hard to come crack here. Gotta press a little, shake things up.

 

[BrewHawk]

The game has slowed down for Iowa and they're playing at a comfortable pace. Rutgers needs to speed things up and make it more of a scramble. May be risky, but I don't think you guys can trade baskets and expect to win. Full court press, more energy on defense.

Really appreciate Keegan's game. Wish he would hang around, but you can't pass up lottery money.

 

[RUfan1027]

murray best player in big ten imo

Murray will score on Caleb inside.

 

[bac2therac]

Bully

Or give him the Buddy Boeheim treatment. I kid... I kid...

 

[Scangg]

Caleb on Murray. DPOY. Need stops can't trade baskets

 

[mildone]

Ugh. Needed that there.

 

[bac2therac]

Ron has to make that

 

[koleszar]

Can this team please miss a fvcking foul shot 12 for 12.

 

[IL Lusciato]

Come the **** on man

Iowa averaged 80ppg in conference.
We shut them down last time but it was very much the anomaly for them.

Unstoppable force vs. immovable object

 

[mildone]

Fvck

 

[TheKidFromRahway]

Pathetic effort by Paul there

 

[greenknight]

We hot chance for break and we are jogging up

 

[bac2therac]

Outhustled..huge swing

 

[RUsojo]

That’s an element our offense just doesn’t have

 

[IL Lusciato]

Carlton wants to have balls so bad haha

 

[RU Mike73]

Need RHJ to start making shots.

 

[Scangg]

Brutally unlucky

 

[bac2therac]

Just bad by Paul

 

[RUJMM78]

Rutgers needs to hit 3 pointers to get back in the game.

 

[RUsojo]

Murray will score on Caleb inside.

He’s scored inside on everyone

 

[fluoxetine]

Fluke tip out to a guy who hits it from nba range.

Such terrible defense!

 

[Salvi's Headband]

That loose ball play was absolutely devastating

 

[Danprusa_4]

Wtf was that Paul hahaha

 

[tfio]

Whenever we get out hustled for a loose ball we always get a 3 drilled on us. It really never fails

 

[bac2therac]

Lineup wtf

 

[koleszar]

4 fvcking guy to their 1 and they get the rebound.

Pike really wants this one over with this lineup.

 

[FIJI'83]

Would be nice to get some low post scoring from Cliff other than a dunk
