Illinois 88, Purdue 80 Postgame

And making layups. Just a beast last several games
Hum dog millionaire has had many better, more efficient games. More clutch? Few if any.
He's one of our guys, isn't he? An assisstant in Champaign for I think one season. Regardless: he's a very good coach, very classy. I wish him the best, except when the Illini confront the Boilers. Or Broilers, or Layers. Or whatever they are.
Let's be honest: If Kasparas missed that, everybody would've looked at it as a bad shot. And he missed a lot of those during the game too.
He'll miss some, he'll make some, but it's his shot.... hunts it every time. Whenever on a 1 on 1 you know it's going up.
I think the key going forward for him is to not be limited to that shot.

Tell him all of us Illini fans say F-U to him for laying you off. We got your back!!!
Huh, Underwood getting spicy in the postgame about a question about how close he was to getting a technical when the ref blew that KJ call.
KJ made quite a few early in the season but not so many lately. Have you watched this team shoot 3’s? we aren’t great. That step back 3 is a low % shot. KB loves it too and he rarely hits one.
Biggest win of the season by far. Some real momentum going into March now, very different feel from the Mayer Shannon team.
Disagree. We were completely outplayed on the offensive boards by Purdue's strategy to crash their d boards
Wish I could give this post a thousand likes

And the only one playing in a major conference that whole time
It seems like he is getting one or two and ones every game now. He isn't just making lay ups. I thought Will could have had a few and us going to in the future.

Overall great game, but Ivisic looked like he’s not 100% or am I off on that?
It was nice to be on the positive side of a somewhat improbable seeming comeback win for once.
Also huge shot by KJ but he is not playing like a lottery pick. I know the NBA draft is about projection and they love big point guards but he doesn't look like a lottery pick to me right now maybe fringe top 20 pick.
He really needs to get stronger and more physical while tightening up his ball handling.

I also meant to give props to the crowd tonight.. Packed house, rowdy from the start, and in the 2nd half it was LOUD and electric. The atmosphere was night and day better than against Iowa. There's not much better than being with my 8 year old son, hearing the roar of the crowd, and making memories with him that I didn't get to have with my dad. As nuts of a fan as I am, nights like tonight are why I love my Illini-lifelong memories with the one's I love.

The foul called on KJ for cleanly blocking the 3 pointer by la-la loyer is the single most egregious proof that B$G refs are completely inept in their job performance on a daily basis.....and it wasn't high knees low skills ref jeff who called it but another clown in the roster of circus refs......
if we had lost this game because of that terrible call I think my head might have exploded.....it really really might have.............

Light and day better with KJ though (despite the fact he has missed some of those lately)
