Game Thread: Illinois vs Iowa

[Fly Illini Fly!]

Will Riley big time

 

[Marshall_Lucky]

The defense stinks.

Normally forcing your opponent to take a bunch of contested fading mid-range jumpers would be a good thing

 

[azillini1]

Iowa is shooting 65% from the floor. They have to start missing at some point... don't they?

About time for REZ to make an appearance.

 

[LuckyIllini]

Will MF Riley might go for 40

 

[Ryllini]

Iowa hot from midrange. %'s say that probably isn't sustainable. Will Riley has grown up. What a beauty.

 

[skyIdub]

Soph Will Riley is POY.

I hate the NBA right now.

Where's Morez?

We’re hoping to play four games in four days, and he’s been out. I hope we only need 15 from him tonight.

 

[One Man Fast Break]

33rd rated KenPom defense really getting exposed. That's really capped the team's ceiling (even with the bad three point shooting which obviously doesn't help but at least they get a lot of offensive rebounds).

 

[Jon]

Will Riley looks like he doesn't belong in this game. Hopefully some fellow Illini can step up to his level

 

[Second place is 1st loser]

Ok, Hamer. Where are your adjustments? /s

To be fair, Iowa is making some really tough shots. Not a lot have been uncontested.

 

[BDMAN]

Does Iowa ever miss a shot? Geez.

Not with the way we are playing D but let's see if they can keep it up. D us really not that bad they are with their guy for the most part Iowa is just not missing

Iowa has the 22nd KP offense

 

[Zorak]

The way Iowa is shooting is not at all sustainable. Stay the course.

 

[Bleedorangeandblue44]

What would our five best defensive players be at the same time? I'd like to see them the court.

 

[blife]

Defense has to show up.

It’s been floating around the Torvik 100th ranked defense in the last couple months. Other teams adjust, we do not

 

[band camp]

Nice D there by Rez. Like this lineup.

 

[skyIdub]

MoreZilla!!!

 

[Jon]

Morez!!

 

[DeeIL89]

Liking the offense and rebounding so far.

 

[FloridaMan]

There's Rez!!!!

 

[biglug58]

Rez ready for St Pats with those kicks

 

[SuperMetroid]

Rez!!
