Need better D and we win handily, IMHO

And, is Alfonso on vacation or something?

It's borderline criminal that we shot 1 FT all half, at home.
We don't shoot free throws because we rarely attack the rim. Wisconsin is getting to the line because of dribble drive and second chance rebounds, where we have to take the foul or give up a layup.

I think Wisconsin has had more team fouls on them, but Illinois' fouls are on shot contests at the rim.

A few ticky tack calls on both ends, but overall well called.

We just need some of our balance to come into play now.

Some threes need to drop.
Curbelo needs to play in control and spread dimes.

Eh, on some real sh*t: Underwood should tell these dudes at halftime "don't try to do too much creating your own shot until you've tried to get it into Kofi".

Like that step back 3 from Plummer down the stretch. Totally not necessary. Not nearly the best option right there.

This like smashmouth football. Take it to their body until they prove they can do something about it (other than cry them cheddary Wisconsin tears).

Big Jamaica is in his bag tonight, and we need to let him welcome these bumpkins from Wisconsin to Jamrock.

Exactly. Those step back threes are the reason we don't get to the line and people complain about foul shooting differential. That's a shot they can get at any time. Take it to the basket or feed the big fella.

Yeah, I think that Plummer three was out of frustration as much as anything. Wisky's d has been solidly draped on him and he hasn't seen a sliver of an opening.

I agree, we gotta fight harder for rebounds and through screens. We're a better team, but they're doing a lot of the physical things better than us right now.
