Michigan State Spartans coach Tom Izzo had some very valid concerns following his team's blowout win over Niagara.
The Michigan State Spartans routed Niagara by a score of 96-60 on Thursday night, so you would think that head coach Tom Izzo would be all smiles after the game.
“I thought Saadi Washington had a good point to a couple of our guys,” Izzo said after the game. “Two guys took really quick 3s, and it went from 13 down to seven. And he said, ‘A heat check means you hit three or four in a row, and then, you have the right to shoot it.’ Our guys, little screwed up on that, they must think one make is a heat check then and you get to shoot. So we got that straightened out at halftime.
So, yes; there are some areas for improvement, especially with Michigan State getting set to face the No. 1-ranked Kansas Jayhawks on Nov. 12.
