Game Thread: Illinois vs Valparaiso

[vikings001]

Agreed, but the previous 3 games he only averaged 12 minutes per game. Only played 4 minutes against Marquette.

He was awful against Marquette. They’re a matchup nightmare for him.

 

[pruman91]

Oh, come on pru. He's not that bad.

Why yes , yes he is.......................................Brian is FAMILLY..................

 

[illinoisgrad1990]

Back to back line from the color guy on the radio.

"OH my God, were in the lead." Folllowed by "Dumbass (think he wad trying to say domask), come on Luke"

We’ve got the amateur announcer in the SFC also, kinda amateur hour all around tonight

Goode feeling himself putting it on the floor

 

[IllinistuckinGopherland]

Goode helps our FT% with a 1 for 2 there

 

[UCantHideYer]

We made a FT. Worth showing a replay, no?

 

[vikings001]

Much better job on Stafford this half.

 

[IllinistuckinGopherland]

Dainja 0-9 on the season for FTs. Incredible

 

[LoveLovie]

Fouling Dainja is gonna be a strategy soon

 

[LouHenson]

Danjia simply can’t be in any close games 0-9 for the year that is just crazy

 

[vikings001]

Dainja 0-9 on the season for FTs. Incredible

He’s almost unplayable. Unless you’re Shaq level good you can’t be this bad.

 

[CDRUSN]

Dainja under the basket with the ball, puts it up....

 

[vikings001]

Dain would instantly get a much longer leash and play a whole lot more if he could be 55% from the ft line. You gotta think he spends hours a day shooting them right? Why the hell did he change his shooting motion? He was fine last year.

 

[Illiniam1984]

Ok now we are starting to pull away. Don’t know what happened in the 1st half.

 

[hoopsfan47]

Illini 6/18 on free throws!!! yikes!!!

 

[InDaAZ]

Can Illinois install a soft landing pad under the baskets for TJ

 

[1970 John]

I have yet to have to re-sync on all the B$G + telecasts......no commercials to get the gme out of sync.....the games with commercials is where the most out of sync probs happen......try the link

I have. I’ll wind up divorced if I try again.

Maybe Brad was just tired of reading about “no halftime adjustments” on Loyalty, and has orchestrated these slow start/hot finishes vs cupcakes to fix that narrative.

Bigger Illini guarding him................

Maryland has 15 at half.. yikes. Also Michigan lost to Long Beach state almost gave up 100 to them..

 

[Illini8420]

Not looking forward to conference play when they’ll call 40 fouls and we’ll find ourselves in a FT shooting contest

 

[Scoregasm]

Free nuggets whenever Dain makes a free throw.

 

[Illiniaaron]

He's in idiot-land for the FB game tomorrow.................

That seems a little harsh…

 

[vikings001]

Illini 6/18 on free throws!!! yikes!!!

So much for the 11-13 against Marquette. It’s all about who shoots them. Take away dain and we are 6-12 still bad but not as bad.
