    After looking at highlights it appears Vaaks is a mixture of Keaton and Kasper with a quicker / stronger wiggle. I think he’s going to be really good. Three things I think that would really strengthen our run next year: -4 th guard - Feliz type - for toughness and insurance if any of the other...

    I think we still need a strong back up big behind Mirk / Tomi in case of foul trouble. Seems like we only have Tomi and Mirk that can body other string bigs. Z doesn’t have the strength and jumps into the rafters on every pump fake. Any foul trouble up front and we seem weak. Are any of the...

    I think we need Kofi to come back and scrimmage with the twins for the summer! Guaranteed they’d be sore but tougher!

    I thought I recalled last year Lee being more ready to contribute than Wagler, are you saying Quinten is further ahead of Morillo or both will start?

    Pregame: Illinois vs Houston, Thursday, March 26th, 9:05pm CT, TBS

    If we don’t play physical they will smoke us. All of those spin moves Peja, Mirk, and Wags love will be jumped and swiped for easy buckets. They will be jumping pick and rolls, a lot of things we don’t handle well. For all those on here that argue Brad is a great coach, here’s the game we...

    Maybe you explain to us what they were, short of the elite team with better players pulling away.

    Is there a particular reason you don’t like Andrej and Bam together?
