Game Thread: Illinois vs Houston

Great acting job by Frazier. Not great free throw shooting.

 

[Leftout87]

All you 60 year olds saying the freshman won’t help

 

[FromTheLogo]

8-3 run sparked by the freshman!!!

 

[skyIdub]

Let the baton be passed.

Goode and RJ will save us all.

Jesus, Plummer literally not looking at his man.

 

[spillini]

Oh my god why can’t we make free throws

 

[hiberto]

ugh trent we needed all 3 of those

 

[Epsilon]

C’mon. He was straight up. No foul.

 

[madillini4]

Plummer’s defensive recognition is shockingly poor

 

[IlliniForceOne]

Freshman. Maybe this board can coach after all

Frazier is clearly not right. If he can’t see to the point where he can’t shoot, he needs to stop shooting.

 

[FloridaMan]

Rebound, push the ball, results in an open 3/foul for Trent. It aint that complicated. But Trent misses two; Man oh Man

 

[CDRUSN]

WIth Curbelo on the bench not committing turnovers and jacking up wild shots, we are finally starting to show a pulse. Love how our freshman are playing right now.

 

[NarrowJ]

A couple of possessions ago, White clearly pushes Goode out of the way with both arms to get an offensive rebound. Then, he pushes off on a shot attempt and whistle is instead on Goode.

Drawing up designs for the Goode statue!

THE FRESHMEN!!!

RJ is such an important part of this team. Sure would like to sit down with BU and argue with his time on court this year...film does not lie. He has brings as much to the court as anyone but Kofi and should have been playing 25+ min. from mid-Dec. on. I love DFW and Grandy, but RJ gives the team much more.

 

[sdfidaho]

Goode!!!

 

[Peoria Pipeline]

Trent not even making free throws right now.. seems he’s lost all confidence on offense.

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Beautiful, fake Trent. Great finish Luke! Let's go guys

 

[TheChief4Life]

Trent must still be dealing with eye issues, right?

Also, that was not a foul on Goode. Terrible call.

Great shot by Goode!

Get some rebounds...

There, got it all in until my next 3 minute window passes...

 

[Spirit of the Prairie]

Kudos to Brad for switching lineup and playing the freshmen. That side trap was a nice wrinkle as well.

Does he coach or does he just throw things in and out and see what happens? Is it coaching or salad-making?

 

[Sawicky]

Might need to bench him

 

[GrayGhost77]

Trent not even making free throws right now.. seems he’s lost all confidence on offense.

He can only see clearly out of one eye.

 

[thehass]

Second chance points killing us.

 

[IlliniTaffy]

Frazier has been brutal, no chance if he can't do anything
