    Round 3: Iowa St vs Kansas

    Line is Kansas -6.5. Thoughts?

    Iowa St should be up 2-0 in the season series, but are down 0-2 thanks to a lucky three point shot and some awful officiating.

    Can Iowa St hang here? Never really like backing the Cyclones on the road, but you have to imagine they'll be out for revenge.

    Iowa St is just so unpredictable. If they hit their 3's they win, if they don't they can get blown out.

    They need a true PG. Lucious is not that. He was awful today.

    He was horrible. Once they benched him they made the comeback. Lucious has always been really hit or miss. Wouldn't surprise me if he dropped 20 tomorrow. Also wouldn't surprise me if he was on the bench the entire 2nd half either.

    He supposedly has a "scorer's" mentality, when in reality, he's like a poor man's Westbrook. Really poor.

    If he's shooting badly, he just keeps shooting.

    This team is a legitimate PG away from being a serious darkhorse.

    I don't really mind Lucious that much. He's similar to Westbrook, he can be really good at times, but at times he can be a ball-hog and take terrible shots.

    Just trying to figure out if they hang tomorrow. There is no doubt that they are out for revenge, but this team can shoot themselves out of a game really fast.

    Probably just going to watch the line. If it drops to 6 I'll play them, if it moves to 7 I'll lay off. If it stays at 6.5 I'll flip a coin.

    I agree with Speedy. All they do is shoot 3's. They took almost 40 attempts. They live by the 3 or die by the 3. IMO I think Kansas is playing pretty good ball down the stretch. I am just not sure on -6.5.

    Iowa St can come back from any deficit, but at the same time they can't hold a lead to save their life. They'll chuck up 3's with 23 on the shot clock when they are up by 6 with 3 minutes to go.
