"And he can pass"

 

[freebird6]

original cheer there from the student section

 

[FeelYourPaign]

35 hit the net during lewis' shot, but that's no problem

 

[geneseo]

JCL showing his PG potential

Not having a good game. 1-8 from the field, no assists, 1 rebound

 

[breadman]

A Hill and Nunn sighting

if ever so briefly on this night.

 

[sdfidaho]

Can't keep it close when Hill and Nunn do absolutely nothing.

 

[breadman]

have we figure out yet that we need to feed the Mav on this night?

 

[sdfidaho]

Exactly. Pretty sure it was still on the rim

I'm a fan and have hope that someway somehow the team turns in a solid performance. I'm an Illini fan and have been forever, but I'm sorry if being real about where this program is upsets you. I envy you guys that are positive about the future and this team, but I can't blindly throw out positive feelings when it's painfully obvious there isn't any.

JCL really needs to get some coaching on defense.

harder when they are shooting 50 per cent from 3

 

[sdfidaho]

Maryland 10-21 from 3. Of course they get hot against us

 

[Bailey]

lol this is only worth watching for Mav at this point. Give it to him every time.

JCL's not the only one.

 

[breadman]

for all the potential fire power we now know after a long season that Nunn, Hill, and JCL can bring, and we see this tonight? Horrible showing.

Alien, I think we're about #40 next year. "solid", as in a 10-11 seed.

Easier to shoot a higher percentage when they're wide open looks.

Yes, we can only play good defense when we double guys.
Someone is always open

Mav's got 21 of our 38. Wish he could have had help tonight from someone.

It's not luck. Funny how terrible defense and high percentage shooting correspond, huh?

You're not bothering me. Those that pick out a player and shower hate on him incessantly are a different story.

IF we get big Mike back, I'd be very disappointed if we weren't significantly better than that next year. But that's for another thread I suppose.

 

[TruIllini89]

Can we see Mav and the Freshmen now?

 

[FeelYourPaign]

We can't hit anything
Get it out of your systems, guys

If we get big Mike back and sit Mav, we'd have about 2 points this game.
