    Or maybe just bite the bullet and switch to NBA rules, clock, and quarters with the current 3 point line intact. I wouldn't mind seeing a challenge or two as well.

    Sincere will be back. He is maybe the best on ball defender in the country

    When talking about a bad defense, we have to remember that the idea is that eventually you will have an off night and get beaten or even blown out because you cant keep the other team from scoring. At best, teams have kept up with Illinois. There haven't been any blowouts this year or really...

    Why not Justin Pippen? He isn't committed and his father and brother were underrated coming out of high school and college. Stands to reason that maybe this kid is too?

    I think you are close. When you look at the remaining schedule, I think it will probably fall out like this. With Illinois, I have orange colored glasses so I hope for the best. I hate Duke, but they could win out with their only tough game left at home against UNC. I can see Marquette going...

    True! With that in mind, did he foul that guy he landed on shooting the three? I had no sound and am not sure what he thought happened on that play

    If you look at it again, notice that Jones went down lower and backs up as Quincy jumps. He knows Quincy is trying to rebound so he went lower and undercut him. These are great athletes with tons of experience. He could feel exactly what was happening. If he wanted to make a play, then go...

    I think he had his hands on Edey's arm to keep himself from getting hurt!

    I think undercutting someone is always a flagrant. In a pickup game, that would have caused a fight. You just don't do that. And no one can tell me that he didn't know. He knew what he was doing. Edey could have been called for more fouls. Early over the back non calls. Some of those...
