Volume matters.

Only if you need it too.

 

[Da_Bull]

Derrick Rose 3 pt %: 46. James Harden 38.9. Clearly Rose is by far a better 3 point shooter......

Spoiler

other than the fact that harden makes 3 more per game than Rose and strictly comparing % without volume/makes per game is just not how stats work.

Do they play for IU and PU?

 

[B-Westy]

Only if you need it too.

So Derrick Rose is a better 3p shooter than James Harden? Has to be. Rose has the higher %.

And....scene.

Doesn't matter, neither plays for IU or PU

 

[MGC_07]

Josh Langford out again against OSU.

That really sucks. This guy was averaging 16 a game until he got hurt. I hope we can still take the win.

Interesting note:

Team true shooting % rankings

Indiana 12th
Purdue 48th

So just throw out % when it doesn't fit your narrative? Why even discuss %? Just shoot more and it wont matter Laughing

 

[Da_Bull]

Maybe effective field goal % is more your thing

Indiana 6th
Purdue 44th

 

[Da_Bull]

Maybe you don't understand all the fancy math and just want straight shooting % rankings.

Indiana 2nd
Purdue 96th

not denigrating him just fed up with it being turned into a media vent all fall during FB games, why not instead why not pay/give more attention to the hospitals that care for these people. is that to much to ask? sorry but my Grandfather died because of Cancer and 2 of my Uncles died from Cancer.

We've all been touched by cancer. I lost both parents and a step-parent to cancer.

If you don't like to see his stories, you can turn the TV off. Your position makes you look petty.

Not a big loss. He wouldn't start for most Big Ten teams.

Why are IU fans so hurt about this fact? Just because you have a higher overall shooting % doesn’t mean you’re a better shooting team. You guys get to the rim way more than Purdue. You’re really counting Juwan Morgan layups as jumpshots?

Purdue has better shooters on its roster. I don’t get why that’s such a big deal to you guys. Lol. You have the better overall team. It’s no big deal in admitting that. Just like it shouldn’t be that big of a deal in admitting that Purdue is a better offensive/shooting team than IU.

I don’t think SNU is saying Indiana is a better shooting team. I think he’s saying the gap isn’t nearly as big as Purdue fans insisted it was.

 

[hailtoyourvictor]

I’d ban someone for trashing Tyler Trent btw. That’s more disturbing than anything I’ve read in awhile.

 

[dragonhawk1855]

can't be your age so I will guess it is your IQ.

Agree

NEVER SAID I was trashing Trent just the media.

as I posted earlier in the 1st game when Iowa did their 1st wave to the childrens Hospital there was a young terminally ill cancer patient that saw it and shortly after the game was over that child passed away because of cancer and it got very little media coverage. where was ESPN when that happened?

that is my problem with what happened.

Whoops. Gotta hurt Purdue fans’ narrative. Don’t know why it’s so hard for them to admit it. Really weird. But, I guess they dont really have anything else to hang their hats on at this point.

 

[SNU0821]

I don’t think SNU is saying Indiana is a better shooting team. I think he’s saying the gap isn’t nearly as big as Purdue fans insisted it was.

Exactly this. We heard all off season IU didn’t have any shooters. Now, we’re leading the conference (I believe) in shooting percentage and our 3pt shooting percentage is pretty much right where Purdue’s is. Now, Purdue fans are butt hurt over it. It’s hilarious to read their spin.

 

[MGC_07]

Kenny Goins misses an open layup. Can’t make mistakes like that.

Really wish we had Langford today.

How long is he out for??

 

[MGC_07]

We aren’t hitting our wide open 3’s. At all. 5 point lead erased because Ahrens, Goins, and Loyer have all missed open 3’s.

 

[MGC_07]

How long is he out for??

Not sure

 

[bMORE607]

 

[MGC_07]

Do refs feel the need to keep the foul count close, even if one team is clearly fouling more?

 

[boilerzz]

How long is he out for??

Hopefully just until Wednesday!

 

[ScarletnGrayBuck]

Buckeyes just trying to stay close until somebody gets hot. Ward is making up for his last 2 trips to Columbus today. He really looks good.

Wesson ain’t too shabby himself.

Good game so far

 

[MGC_07]

Take Kenny Goins out he looks awful. He’s playing scared

 

[snowsquirrel11]

Holtmann is a really good coach, he gives the buckeyes a bright future. Props to them ponying up the cash, too. He makes 7.15M/yr (3rd highest paid coach behind K and Calipari). Oddly enough, Izzo is the 4th highest paid, but "only" makes 4.36M/yr.

 

[MGC_07]

Kenny Goins is responsible for this swing. My god

 

[MGC_07]

Same game. 1 year apart.

Close until the end of the first half. Then Ohio State goes in a 10-0 run.

 

[MileHighSpartan]

Yep. He's f'ing up left and right. Stupid fouls, bricking layups

 

[MGC_07]

Of course. Caleb Wesson hits a 3 to end the half.

I swear I’m having deja vu. This is crazy. Close game, then OSU goes nuts to end the half

 

[ScarletnGrayBuck]

What a game so far. The battle between Ward and Wesson, wow.

 

[SpartanJD]

I don’t think osu is capable of playing better than they did those final 3 minutes. Wesson’s fatass hitting a 3? Ok

Those backdoor slips got them at least 3-4 buckets. They're playing great defense. Now got the momentum into half time.

MSU better wake up

Yesh. MSU can’t turn it over. Osu struggles in the half court but let’s osu score a quick 8 off of turnovers
