Cal-Iowa State Men's Basketball Open Thread + Interview With Clone Chronicles

Print(To discuss the remaining college football games or the Cal-Washington game, scroll down to the postgame thread. This thread is for the basketball game only!)
Line: Cal by 8
Injuries: Robertson (questionable, gametime decision), MSF, Gutierrez, Amoke (probable, all with flu/cold)
After a tough loss to New Mexico, Cal is fast approaching must-win mode to avoid being in come-from-behind mode for the Pac-10 season. That bid kicks off with a home matchup against Iowa State in the continuing Big 12/Pac-10 Hardwood series. Other than an Oregon State win yesterday, the Pac has been shut out, making it very imperative Cal wins tonight to boost the conference's image and their team's ability to beat quality big conference opponents.
This game is on ESPNU, tips off at Haas at 8 PM PST/11 PM EST. After the jump, we interview the Iowa State SBN blog, Clone Chronicles, to discuss tonight's matchup and learn more about Iowa St. basketball.
1) Tell us about your top players. Who are the Cyclones Cal fans should be worried about?
Our top players are Craig Brackins, Marquis Gilstrap, and Diante Garrett. Brackins is a 2009 Preseaon All-American who was a projected Lottery Pick in 2009, decided to come back to try to get this team to the NCAA Tournament. He's a natural 3, that has to play the 4 and 5 due to a lack of post presence. He has issues against physical players, but has a nice mid-range jumper and fade-away spin move in the post. Gilstrap is a JUCO Transfer who is true wing player in that he is a good rebounder, can score from anywhere, and attacks the hoop. Garrett is the point guard. He isn't a scorer, but great at distributing the ball, and not giving up turnovers. His A/T is 3.31 on the year.... Lucca Staiger played on the German National Team this past summer. He's a 3 point specialist, so he can't be left open.
2) How well is the offense running now? Defense?
Offense is not running well at all. This team plays much better in transition than in half court sets. They are having a tough time against physical defenses, man-to-man defenses. They play much better against the zone. Defensively, they are alright. The post defense isn't great as they've allowed a handful of easy layins, but the perimeter defense is pretty good. They do not pressure too much, so they do not pick up many steals.
3) What are the expectations going into this season for the Cyclones?
The expectations were to get to the NCAA Tournament. With 2 professional prospects in Brackins and Gilstrap, along with some starters becoming upperclassmen, along with being able to go 9-10 deep, anything short of that is a disappointment...So far this season has been disappointing, but the potential is there. This game against Cal is a must-win for the Cyclones... I think some would be ok with a NIT, but most of the top players will likely leave ISU after this year, so 2010-2011 looks to be a rebuilding year. If they do not make the dance, this would be the longest NCAA Tournament drought for ISU since the early 1980s.
4) Tell us something about Iowa State that granola-munching, tree-hugging, flag-burning heathens on the West Coast would probably not know.
Over the past 24 years, they've made the NCAA Tournament 12 times. Jeff Hornacek, Marcus Fizer, Kelvin Cato, and Jamal Tinsley played at Iowa State. Tim Floyd coached here in the mid-1990s prior to coaching the Chicago Bulls. Hilton Coliseum used to be considered one of the toughest places to play in all of College Basketball. The last time it's been truley, floor shaking hostile, was in 2004 or 2005. Winning more will cure that I think.... ISU is mostly an AG school, so of course most students hate everything that Berkeley stands for.
5) As an Iowa State fan, who do you want to punch in the face the most and why?
Not really anyone, but the closest is Roy Williams probably. Every single top recruit from the state of Iowa he has plucked for himself. The latest was #1 Recruit Harrison Barnes who is an Ames, IA native. In the later 1990s into the early 2000s, ISU had a good rivalry going with Kansas with some pretty competitive games, so some of it stems from there.

Hey guys, login to Justin and encourage this guy to stream the Cal game. He’s already streaming ESPNU.
Yeah. I been saying that we only could send six teams. The committee allowed in 8 Pac10 teams and we screwed it up. USD should’ve gotten a bid and there were other teams that deserved it, but the Pac10 is like the SEC of volleyball.
BTW: Baylor won the first two sets. (crossing fingers).
Baylor up 2-0! (maybe this team is not the one we want to face?)
Like cocaine straight from Bolivia.
Trust me. We want Baylor. We do well with fast, yet small teams (eg Hawaii, St Marys, Oregon etc…). We always have trouble with the taller teams (eg Zona, Stanford, UCLA, Texas).
Oh, I see. Actually, we’re big. Our front row is 6’5, 6’4, 6’3 and 6’3. We’re a slow team but we got crazy power. We were dropping bombs on teh Buckeyes tonight. Huge kills.
Of UCLA? No. I"m a paid sub, but they don’t have video in their arena, period.

There are seven minutes remaining in this one? WHAT???

Greetings from Haas Pavilion. We’re about 30 minutes away from the start of Cal’s game with Iowa State in the Big 12/Pac-10 Hardwood Series. First thing you need to know — senior Theo Robertson is in street clothes and not playing. This will be the sixth consecutive game the Bears’ starting small forward has missed with a right foot injury.

I know this is a basketball only thread, but I thought you all would be delighted to know that Nebraska has taken a 12-10 lead over Texas with 1:45 left.
Whose domicile? OUR DOMICILE!
What on Earth was Texas doing?
McCoy may have run out the clock inadvertently. Clock shows zero after a throw away pass.
Refs put one second on clock. Texas will try 47 yard FG ftw.
Praise be to Tedford!
Is it just me or has all the Pac-10 suckage given you hope that, when we get healthy, this team can be very good in the Pac-10

as in, from what i’ve seen from all the teams, i feel we’re still #1 or #2… and now our bench is getting tons of time

I figured it would be us and Washington and maybe UCLA before the year began. Now I would say that WSU has replaced UCLA as the team I’m afraid of

If Max can do that shit against Pac-10 Centers (lolwut, they actually exist), this year will be tremendous!
Like cocaine straight from Bolivia.
Wow. I’m surprised. I hope they can pull it off, but I think Hawaii is too good. You’re right though, we need this one for Pac10 pride.
We just gun have to take out Penn State like the muh fuckaz we iz. HOOD style.
Like cocaine straight from Bolivia.
(and get past Baylor first)
PS why is the entire Big 12 in the Sweet 16… and how come they all have such good records?!??! do they not play each other?!?!
Like cocaine straight from Bolivia.
Good question. I don’t know. It happens each year though. Pac10 beats up on each other while the Big10 and Big12 rack up insane records.
St. Marys and Stanford going into a 5th set tie breaker. Crazy. I want Stanford to win for Pac10 pride, but I can’t help myself from getting excited when St. Marys scores a point. Plus St. Marys is kind of our sister school. Their campus is a 10min drive from ours.
Baylor beats UCLA 3-1
Wow, what an upset! This sets up perfectly for us. It’s been a good night for Cal Volleyball.
Aww, why’d you take Max out Monty?

One thing I'm not enjoying about this game
Seeing the football score come across the ticker on a regular basis.

These are the Bears I've wanted to see from the beginning
Attacking the rim, attacking the glass, getting the 3s off of crisp ball movement.
MSF with one sick pass.

I just turned the game on and I see a 3 pointer, a steal and a great pass from MSF!

I would seriously considered Max as MVP of the game so far. Also Amoke. Also Jerome is his usual self
I guess what I’m saying is great team effort so far

For you Gonzaga haters
(of which I’m not one, BTW)
Just noticed Wake Forest beat them 77-75.
Praise be to Tedford!
Its the same reason I hate Boise State – there is no doubt they are decent each and every year – but it is a huge advantage to be in a conference you can easily win every season.
I’ll confess I hate Boise State. For the reason you state, as well as my belief that the place is barely a college.
Praise be to Tedford!
There’s also that. And as I said on the postgame thread, I’ve been there and it looks even more stupid in person.
Praise be to Tedford!
they get a lot of talent that wouldn’t qualify for some Pac-10s… i remember two kids from the same high school who were both going to UCLA. one couldn’t qualify for UCLA but was cleared with NCAA, so they both went to Boise instead. Now, one of the guys is in the NFL (and a huge part of their win against OK), and the other was their leading receiver last year
Like cocaine straight from Bolivia.
That’s not reflected in the recruiting standings. Their classes have been rated (in reverse order from 2009 to 2002) 72, 89, 68, 70, 64, 85, 101, and 74 by Rivals. Doesn’t really scream “safe haven for highly rated but academically challenged athletes.”
As for the receiver you referred to, Jeremy Childs, he was at least offered by UCLA (and briefly committed to their 2005 class), for what that’s worth.

Jeremy Childs and Orlando Scandrick (CB on the Cowboys) were both offered by UCLA in a package deal.
I guess “a lot” is over-exaggerating, but they’ve done a tremendous job cleaning up the scraps and stories all along the West Coast.

nice win by cal
makes up for our football team sleepwalking today
What did i tell you...didn't I say they would win? Yeah that's right I did didn't ? Wait.. what? They LOST?!?!?
Went to my first Cal game ever tonight
Thoughts on Haas:
I need to bring hiking boots next time. Dear lord it is steep.
The atmosphere was very disappointing. The stadium was probably less than half full. Cal fans can show up and be loud (like at football games), so why not do it for basketball? In my opinion a good basketball crowd is more important than a good football crowd. Frustrating.
Thoughts on the game:
- PChris sighting! PChris sighting! After being on the lam from playing well for months, good old PChris is back.
- Jerome Randle is really, really good at basketball.
- I can’t remember Jorge having a better offensive game. He was confident with the ball, made some 3s, used headfakes effectively, and had only 1 turnover. Hopefully he keeps that up.
- Dear Max, You are 7 fucking 3. 3 rebounds is unacceptable in 20+ minutes. A guy 9 inches shorter than you grabbed 8 more rebounds. And it isn’t that he isn’t getting bounces. Its that he isn’t trying for the ball. Max frequently just watches the play and doesn’t move to the ball. Quit being so cumbersome and do something! He needs to go to the Omondi Amoke school of sticking your nose in everything. Speaking of him…
- I am officially in love with Amoke. He really is Mr. Everything. He is a great natural rebounder (if he was a few inches taller he would be unstoppable), very athletic, a heady player, and always seems to be in the right place at the right time. Amoke’s play thus far has been by far the most positive development of the year.
All aboard the Jahvid Best rickshaw!
It should be noted that Max was fantastic defensively tonight, and didn’t seem too bad on offense. I don’t want to come off overly critical but I was very annoyed.
All aboard the Jahvid Best rickshaw!

Rebounding is one of the more intellectual parts of the on-court game
Sounds odd, but it’s true. There’s a reason that Jon Brockman, a 6-7 schlub with barely enough hops to dunk, was able to consistently beat the pants off of every single opposing player in the Pac-10 for rebounds for four years straight. Most of it is about playing the angles and probabilities and thus being in the right place to get the ball. Athleticism and height helps (obviously; see Amoke) but it’s much less important than it seems.
I suspect Zhang just doesn’t have the reps to rebound well yet. He just hasn’t played enough basketball. That’s something that can potentially be taught, I think, but it’s obviously a work in progress.
Linda's in the cold ground, won't see her anymore
Somewhere out on the highway tonight, the drunken engines roar
It's just one of those things, one of those things
-- Al Stewart, "Accident on 3rd St."
In memory of Nick Adenhart and all victims of drunk driving
I agree, but the main thing I request is that he at least tries to put his giant body in position to make a play (thus making it harder for an opposing player to make a play) instead of just watching.
All aboard the Jahvid Best rickshaw!
To be sure about the idea, I’d have to watch the game, but I felt like on a number of plays Max did a really great job of totally blocking out his man (presumably Brakins) and freeing up space on the boards for the rest of the Bears. Like Paul said, he may not have that instinct/ability, but he’s capable of using his size to take is man out of the play, so that’s something.

I was disappointed in last night’s crowd, too. I suspect there was a decent football hangover (I know at least one of my friends declined to go because she was too in need of getting really, really drunk), but still, this basketball team deserves bigger crowds (the women’s team does too, but that’s a different story).
Crowds should get bigger with Pac-10 play, especially with Stanfurd on January 2nd.
So, basically, you gotta Go Bears!
