Game Thread: Illinois vs Rutgers

[rtbritt]

Giorgi is all out of whack.

 

[Halloweenie]

Feliz to bench please...Allan back in

 

[skyIdub]

Lazy passes, terrible shots, just clueless.

 

[SuperMetroid]

Shot selection so far :hurl:

 

[Deleted member 746654]

Man.....we cannot shoot

 

[Kingsnake22]

Get feliz out of the game, awful. Dude just about turned it over and shot an air ball. Why does underwood hate griffin so much?

 

[Jon]

They've jumped every passing Lane and we still just lazily pass it

 

[Illinidpm]

What are we doing! Where is Alan!! He provide some boards and a spark and hasn’t been in for awhile. Why did we stop going away from kofi! They are doubling so someone is open. This is ridiculous.

Feliz has gotten worse as the season has gone on

 

[DB11Headband]

Have we taken a shot with more than 5 seconds left on the shot clock today?

 

[skyIdub]

Man.....we cannot shoot

It's hard to shoot good when you keep taking terrible shots.

 

[Illini_Jack]

It's like we haven't shot a basketball in a year and half

 

[BDMAN]

We are not crisp with the ball cannot establish a presence down nor make a jump shot to save our lives if this keeps this will get ugly quick and all of the credit got with the whisky win will be for naught. This team confuses the heck out of me

 

[JJE]

Love Giorgi, but he's a black hole in this half. Seems like Underwood wanted to get him going this game, but he's a mess right now.

 

[hoopsfan47]

Playing at the opposite end of the curve from the last two games. No energy, no smart play, no plan, no speed, no confidence, lazy passes, missed layups. Can't beat the fifth grade Marauders with that kind of play. Underwood needs to rant at them and wake them up and play guys who want to play.

must be in the doghouse

 

[westvilleillini]

We're playing about as poorly offensively as we can and Rutgers can't pull away. I feel good about it.

 

[SuperintendentChalmers]

Now, we're playing with some real energy and crispness! Oh, that's just a highlight from the Purdue game.

 

[OrangeAndBlueBlooded]

There ya go, Trent!

 

[BDMAN]

Does physicality affect Kofi he seems to be shying away from the contact he should embrace that style of play?

 

[Halloweenie]

Keahee (sp?) Is our friend

 

[Btpk]

They are playing harder than us you can tell by the Offensive rebounds. they are out hustling us this has been a problem for Illinois all year

 

[Halloweenie]

Missed blatant push on lob to Kofi

 

[jrmarcus]

Illinois' defense is doing pretty well. Shots are being contested and Rutgers is being forced into bad shots. Admittedly, the same is true the opposite way. This is Illinois' game, just clean it up. Illinois isn't going to get home court calls, it looks like.

Offense sucks, defense solid
