Game Thread: Illinois at Michigan State

[CubsIlliniFan]

B U doing some justified chewing. Hopefully we will wake up. No hustle at all

 

[skyIdub]

They came out so engaged on D...then the first sub out...everything downhill since. They'd better pay attention.

 

[JJE]

This is happening isn't it. Laying a giant egg and getting digging ourselves into a hole.

 

[LvilleILL]

Please wakeup. We are playing down to the competition

 

[Fighter of the Nightman]

Hopeful that a few harsh words during this TV timeout can provide a MUCH needed spark.

 

[Calillini]

MSU is going to cool off. Shooting over 50 percent right now

Don’t count on it
Their court
They are working hard to get good shots

 

[aaron2108]

Please wakeup. We are playing down to the competition

Unfortunately seems to be a trend here

BU needs to light these guys up.

As it went to commercial it appeared you got your wish! Mad BU in the huddle

 

[FeelYourPaign]

Please wakeup. We are playing Below the competition

fify

They've been beaten down the floor at least four times by my count.

 

[STLIlliniMike]

Kofi sits and Giorgi comes in, gives up multiple offensive rebounds, complains about an non call instead of hustling back and then is beat on defense because of it...yikes

 

[Calillini]

Can the foul on Giorgi on that rebound been any more obvious?

He sulked all the way back up court and got schooled
He is an upperclassman

 

[purcy51]

Giorgi is ELITE at complaining to refs after every call and walking up the floor for a guy who is not very good

Needs to learn from Kofi, get hacked, play mad

 

[DICKnaggie]

So disappointing that we are still coming out this way in games at this point in the season. The consistency or lack thereof does not bode well for tournament play. It is late enough in the season that this should be corrected.

What kind of call is that against Kofi. Can the offensive player not try to get position in the lane?

 

[ChocolateThunder]

Flat as a g.d. pancake. Somewhat perplexing

KC needs to get is head unparked and start concentrating.

 

[SuperMetroid]

FINALLY called MSU for one of their "screens"

Did you see the replay

 

[skyIdub]

Welp...now 2 on Kofi. This is going to be tough.

 

[azillini1]

I knew Kofi was going to get in foul trouble in this type of game. Hope GB can help keep us close... he looks bad so far. Can't dunk the ball!!!

 

[Deleted member 747802]

Gotta just try to keep it under 10 before half now. I was hoping we got beyond that stuff, but here we are.

 

[STLIlliniMike]

Kofi dunking the ball and being the first Illini back on defense is not acceptable

 

[LJ22]

Giorgi. No.

 

[Stevegarbs]

Oh fer fux sake Georgi

 

[skyIdub]

Giorgi thought he was Kofi.
