What happened with the Morris twins? I don't follow a whole lot of professional basketball, but I see the highlights on ESPN. Haven't ever seen either one of them in a game. Weren't they drafted high?

One of them wound up in the NBA developmental league or whatever it is called.

Does the other one play? Wasn't he like 2 in the draft?

I agree I don't think it was as much as complacency as it was losing Flip

marqueef is doing better than his brother actually... marcuffs just got called up to the rockets but after this thing he got into with one of his own fans... I doubt he's there to stay...

That game was also back in the early stages when Iowa State was still pretty rough. They play more like a team now, and aren't as selfish individuals anymore. White isn't superman like he can me, he always chooses to pass first.

Babb has shut down every teams best player since conference play started. We've also gotten a lot better at rebounding here lately too.

Iowa State is one of those teams than can beat anyone they play, they just wont win all of them. If two of Christopherson/Allen/Babb/McGee get hot from the three theres a pretty good chance we can take it. KState was real good at shutting down three point shots until playing us Saturday because Royce White just opens it up. Double team him and he finds the open guy for the three, don't double team him and hes probably going to beat you himself.

There have been about three games this year where ISU showed up cold, if tomorrow isn't a forth time it should be a real good game.

Iowa State is 72/202 from 3 on the road in the Big 12 (including a 15-30 performance against Oklahoma that is the only time ISU has been above 40 percent on the road).

ISU has pretty consistently shot around 34 percent from 3 on the road.

It is HIGHLY, HIGHLY unlikely you guys shoot in Columbia like you did in Ames, according to the statistics. That's the only thing that really kept you in the game.

Hitting open shots becomes much tougher on the road than it is in a home arena.

ANd the main difference - Missouri shot 24 percent from deep and still beat you in Ames. It won't shoot that poorly at home. It's not like ISU is a great team at defending the 3.

Good post

Time for Mizzou to get some mojo going for the tourney...big game tonight for the seniors at home against ISU.

Again, sorry Rushshack, I think you guys are running into a buzzsaw tonight.


I see the Tigers with a pretty easy win. ISU shot the ball extrememly well, with MU shooting it terrible for the game in Ames to be close.

And the other one scored 12 points in last weeks rookie-sophomore game at All Star Weekend in Orlando, lol

What were they drafted at? Wasn't one of them the 2nd pick?

Most teams shoot pretty bad against ISU, especially the players Babb is guarding.

The entire league has players that are as good or better than the Morris twins. Neither one is likely to ever be an impact player in any capacity.

oh no. They were drafted back to back near the end of the lottery.
