What is the record...

for the number of consecutive games a single player has had at least one blown dunk? Along with season FG%, I have a feeling Isaac has a good shot at breaking that one. Guy better watch out; some teammate might put together a little "highlight" reel for him for Christmas.

Well, even with his clunkers, he's still a top 20 FG % in the entire NCAA (just behind Hammons now). Hard to get down on the kid with overall performance like that. His stamina is leaps and bounds (no pun intended) better than last year, but it still seems that as the game wears on, he is less likely to have any hops left on his block and dunk attempts. Something for him to work on for next season (assuming he doesn't go the NBA route after this one).

Glad somebody posted this. I was afraid there'd be nothing to bitch about after the way the team played last night.

Probably had a little to do with the 3 games in 6 days.

He hands out a lot of punishment in the paint. But he also gets quite a bit as well.

He will be fine. Glad to see him going for the dunk instead of laying it in to get it blocked.

No complaints here. Thrilled with Isaac's progress this year, actually. I was just thinking about a mischievous teammate having a little fun mixing up video of the missed dunks that seem to occur at a higher than expected frequency. What would the soundtrack be? I'm thinking a braggy song to create funny irony like Fabolous's I'm the Man.

Excuse me I happen to be the Boss man
[Chorus:]
Excuse me I happen to be the Weatha man
Excuse me I happen to be the Ice Man
Excuse me I happen to be the Dope Man
Im the man (yes) shorty Im the Man
Im the man (yes) Shorty Im the Man
Im the man (yes) shorty im the Man
Im the man (yes) Shorty Im the Man

Isaac's doing so well otherwise, I have a feeling he'd be laughing along with the others.

I'm sure it bothers him more than it bothers us. He'll get it figured out. I am also one who loves seeing him go for the slam.

Time to pull his scholarship and give it to a quality big.

to an untrained eye it may appear that fatigue was at play and there just wasn't enough left in the tank. However, a closer review will see his FG% so high that he purposely misses with an intent of padding his offensive board numbers. It is hard for him to get offensive boards when he shoots typically...and Purdue wants him to shoot. He has made huge strides since last year...course any stride he takes is huge...
