Game Thread: Illinois at Michigan State

[ITIllini]

Lewis showing his value nicely.

If only he would quit jogging down the court after scoring a bucket. He has is back turned to the ball and doesn't know what is going on behind him.

 

[breadman]

Well, we've heard worse like Coleman-Hands.

or Coleman-Grill

 

[Sizzler22]

this team can't keep up with MSU. Groce just got on MH for not getting back. This lineup is really really rough

I've seen all I want of Lewis admiring his two shots then sauntering down the floor instead of playing defense. You made a couple good shots bfd...now shut up and play defense.

Agree, the first time it let to a wide open 3 when the ball was pushed right past him not paying attention

There's your D.

He's got 3 of the 5 illini rebounds and has 6 pts. in 4 minutes of playing time.

That yelling from that one fan is starting to make my ears bleed.

These announcers hurt my ears....especially Calhoun!

 

[Captain Bubbles]

Lewis didn't have the mumps. He had Pokerus.

 

[IlliniCards24]

Tate should be forbidden from shooting 3's.

I'm listening to Barnhart and Hester, so I don't know who you're talking about.

 

[ITIllini]

There's your D.

Yep. That was nice.

 

[breadman]

Nice, Tate got clipped. Can you say broken nose?? Let's hope not.

I'm so impressed.

You obviously lose a ton by not having Nunn, but the most critical thing might be leadership. The boys are settling down now, but early on the young guys were playing like they'd just popped pills at the dance club. Also, not having Nunn's presence as a defensive catalyst really hurts us.

 

[TheDuke]

This defense....just wow

Malcolm abusing Michgan State on the drive.

 

[Captain Bubbles]

This is easily the best game of Lewis' career as an Illini so far. He's rockin' it tonight.

 

[aluma]

I have a hard time understanding why Jordan was taken out so quickly

 

[illiniknight]

Enough of Tate. We need another shooter in the game.

 

[breadman]

Brewski time...

 

[IlliniCards24]

This could get ugly fast.

Can't be mad about it though.

 

[Stevegarbs]

These announcers hurt my ears....especially Calhoun!

I speak fluent mumble and I can't understand a word he is saying!

 

[Sizzler22]

This is depressing. I don't care if they are the number 5 team in the country. No one is getting back at all, half the team is still on the other end of the court while MSU is shooting.

 

[Adnarel]

There's yet another "stop the bleeding" timeout.

This one's just gonna be an ugly one.

 

[Bailey]

Enough of Tate. We need another shooter in the game.

He got burned by McQuaid off the dribble too.
