That 2nd half was particularly ugly offensive basketball by both teams

That 2nd half was particularly ugly offensive basketball by both teams. Iowa just makes you look bad with its slow-down style. Our offense looked stagnant, movement was sporadic, looked bored at times, wings did little to try to get open and create shots, DMac had to resort to his Harlem Globetrotters dribbling show at times, and Davis and Tis set some of the weakest on- and off-ball screens I've seen by UI bigs. But our defense was very good in the 2nd half, esp. in limiting their open looks at 3s.
