[GoIllini23]

[CoalCity]

Good drive Kipper. Make the FT's

 

[TCTORNADO]

TJL out of control TO

 

[TrahNeb]

Ah yes this is the part where Michigan doesn't miss from three...

 

[Deleted member 3875]

Tejon out of control, forcing it

Again

 

[CoalCity]

My GOD AJ!!!! Doesn't get more open than that

 

[TCTORNADO]

Jordan's 3 pt shot is broken

 

[skyIdub]

AJ drifting back towards the mean.

 

[StateFarmCenter]

Remember when we were winning at half? We're down 9.

 

[Sizzler22]

Wide open three...man

 

[Deleted member 3875]

Ugggg...Illini gonna lose by a lot.

And they shouldn't. Have equivalent talent but not playing smart.

 

[IllinoisBall]

Will AJ make a 3 pointer in this game????

 

[IlliniMed]

I think AJ is broken, sadly.

lol. Thats what happens when you don't get him invloved for 10 games

 

[OrangeNBrood]

Are TJL, Alstork, and AJ roommates? Why do I feel like they are drinking from the same water supply?

 

[CasualObserver05]

All of our 3 pt shots are broken, unfortunately been that way since EIU.

 

[JFGsCoffeeMug]

I'm not concerned about AJ missing. I'm concerned about how bad his shot looks right now.

Not a lot of difference in these two teams other than confidence, experience, and consistency. Illini will be at Michigan level next year.

 

[skyIdub]

I can't believe how much more confident I am in our team with the ball in Frazier's hands.
He makes freshman mistakes, but wow his decision making is better than Alstork, Kipper, Tejon, and Finke....all older.

 

[OptimistOrange]

When the opposition goes on a run we too often default into Frazier, Lucas and Smith trying to do too much instead of just running the offense. Flash backs to the hero ball of years past

Totally agree, although I think we will see the confidence and consistency more and more as BIG schedule begins to even itself. This road start is nearly impossible for a young team learning a new system.

Confidence and Consistency really difficult to develop on the road.

There's no hero ball on this team...

 

[JFGsCoffeeMug]

Love the way Frazier has bounced back with his FT shooting.

 

[Sal Iacuzzo]

Ebo has deflected three passes with his feet.

 

[OrangeNBrood]

Ebo showing them soccer skills.

Perimeter D is weak sauce.
