Stat nerds say that the home court advantage in basketball is significant enough that the home team should win 67% of the time.

Our ag pals up north have an all-time win % in Hilton of 74%, which includes a 29-23 mark against K-State in that building (56%).

Seems more like "Hilton slightly better than average advantage Coliseum" vs. something magical.

Iowa State is the worst. Their fans are huge dork goobers. Their coach is a pock-faced Manlet. Their players are egregious floppers.

I don’t respect them as people or a state.

Those stupid overalls are super dumb as well.

Absolute dorks. Place wasn’t even loud except for the end either. Grown men behind the LSU bench making asses of themselves.

Time would only be added in that case if the ball was still in the offense's hand at the time of the violation. Since the clock expired while the ball was in the air, the possession ends when the shot is complete. In this case it's when the ball hits the floor since no one touched the ball before then. Essentially you can't have a shot clock violation if the ball is in fight.

#10 biggest flopper in history? Probably

Rusty, it was driving me crazy, y'all didn't even see half the time he was doing it. I can't tell you how many times he was doing it off the ball too, and on both sides of the court. I haven't watched a player throw his head back so much. I seriously hope he gets a sprained neck doing that crap. My mold buddy says he does it a lot, every game. The flopping is no longer a point of emphasis, but it's still in the rule book. That guy, Gilbert, is an embarrassment, but he was also their best player tonight.

Was this shown on TV? Tang went over to Otz and was clearly pointing at his bench area but Otz didn't listen to him and went ballistic about Tang going over to his coaching box. He didn't listen to anything Tang had to say, he just tried to get a T on Tang. When the game was over he and Tang talked for a very long time and Tang was dissatisfied with whatever the result of that conversation was.

I never really cared about coach smedium aka pinhead from Hellraiser before, but now I legit hate him.

Had the same thought.  Didn’t Tang actually get on the mic at some point to chastise some fan or something?  Seems like I have a memory of that.

That Coach Richard Spencer’s reaction was crying about Tang being in his coaching box made me feel bad for Tang. :(

Its only roundball though. We are a powerhouse football program again which is all that matters. I'm just hoping our hoops distracts me into mid march.

I hope I regret posting this, but I think Tylor Perry might be one of my most disliked K-State athletes of all time. He's not even a jerk or anything, he just has the most unfulfilled promise from any athlete since Bryce Brown. I do feel really bad for not liking him but he straight stinks. It's amazing this team is where it is given how bad he's been.

You’re not alone, MIR.

That was the least watchable game I can remember in a very, very long time. We crept back only to never once take tge pead, the fouls goikg both ways were absolutely ridiculous. The sequence of the elbow to the face no call in light of all the other fouls, then the phantom tripping foul followed by the Tang technical was absolutely laughable.

With TP, I have come around to think about him like this:

He is being asked to play a position he shouldn’t, but because we don’t have anyone else to do that right now, he has to. That sucks. It suck’s for him and us, but he’s doing what appears to be his best and I respect that.

Also, he may be a flipper but that guy gets after it. Last night, near the end of the game, he rammed a crybaby bitch out of his way and dove head first into our bench trying to save a ball.

I don’t know if this take is a good take, but I know I feel a lot less frustrated when watching him when I frame it this way in my head.

I get the frustration with Perry, but at least the effort is there.

McNair has to be one of the worst rebounding big men who play significant minutes that we've had this century. Bad technique, marginal effort, etc. At least 3-4 of ISU's o-rebounds last night were because he can't/won't box out - he just stands there waiting for the ball to come to him.

I can't imagine how badly we'd get outrebounded if Carter/Kaluma weren't great on the glass.

Do you think it is an effort issue or a conditioning issue? Or is a conditioning issue an effort issue? He seemed to rebound and defend well against Baylor's bigs last week. He shouldn't do more than one dribble per touch, max. His turnovers rise exponentially with the number of dribbles.

McNair has to be one of the worst rebounding big men who play significant minutes that we've had this century. Bad technique, marginal effort, etc. At least 3-4 of ISU's o-rebounds last night were because he can't/won't box out - he just stands there waiting for the ball to come to him.

I can't imagine how badly we'd get outrebounded if Carter/Kaluma weren't great on the glass.
Do you think it is an effort issue or a conditioning issue? Or is a conditioning issue an effort issue? He seemed to rebound and defend well against Baylor's bigs last week. He shouldn't do more than one dribble per touch, max. His turnovers rise exponentially with the number of dribbles.

My brother's observation was that McNair should study and copy Ayoka Lee. Turn and muscle to the basket. Don't put the ball on the floor.

Coach McSweaty at Iowa State has his guys well-groomed in the art of flopping, except he may want to watch Gilbert for whiplash - Gilbert tends to go the Hunter Dickinson route of extreme flopping.  Too bad coach McSweaty (seriously, when's the last time you've seen a POLYESTER shirt on a pale man with a whitewall haircut?) didn't pay attention to Tang when Tang wanted the fan nonsense behind his bench to stop.  I think K-State fans should give coach McSweaty and his team the royal treatment when they come to the Octagon.

The old school coaches all said it's 100 percent effort. I personally think there's skill involved in terms of anticipating where the ball goes, etc., but that effort does play a huge role.

We are currently 292nd in the country in defensive rebounding percentage and while it's not fair to McNair that he was probably set for a 10-15 minute off the bench role before circumstances changed this year, the reality is that we have a big who is playing nearly 25 minutes per game who is not a good rebounder and that's a huge part of why we're so bad on that front.

Last night, McNair had 1 rebound in 25 minutes - it goes without saying, but that's really, really bad.

The best part is that Gerry Pollard - he of an ungodly amount of awful calls - made the foul call, but rightfully didn't call the T on Tang. It was actually the effing ref all the way under the basketball that gave him the T. Even Pollard wasn't gonna go there.

What's wild about this is that it was wide open, mid court.  how did no one see this.  Not just refs, but our coaches didn't call a time out and ask for the reveiw, like they have before.  Just wild.

Also, ISU's coach seems like a piece of crap.

Not that it matters at all, but how can you not add time there at the end?  It was so obvious that there should be 2.5 seconds left.  What was the reasoning?

Time would only be added in that case if the ball was still in the offense's hand at the time of the violation. Since the clock expired while the ball was in the air, the possession ends when the shot is complete. In this case it's when the ball hits the floor since no one touched the ball before then. Essentially you can't have a shot clock violation if the ball is in fight.

Makes sense, TY.

During the next dead ball Tang was begging for a replay. He went to each referee making the replay hand signal, they passed.

Kinda weird for an AD to be that emphatic when either: (1) ISU’s coach was not willing to go out on that limb, or (2) he isn’t letting the coach talk about it at all.

I believe this is true.  In the Athletic article Tang is quoted as "“I stand by what I said in the presser wed night” (posted above).  So Tang (nor KSU) has made any public allegations to date.  It appears ISU is getting wound up based on rumors and media articles based on rumors. . . maybe they're trying to get ahead of something?

Someone convinced me that Jamie Pollard isn't Kellis' source. Neither coach expressed a need to talk about it. Then there was an anonymous report to the K-State beat writer, then less than 24 hours after that he goes public to not his beat writer but to a national writer who just happened to be a panelist on a national broadcast, right before their game on that network. Then he tweets the clip out and has his head coach open his post game press conference against the #7 team in the country with a prepared statement. No one would be talking about this if he didn't feel the need to talk about it today.
