Game Thread: Illinois at Minnesota

[azillini1]

Only 6 TO's in first half and I believe only 1 in the last 8 minutes!

Older players getting it done today. Curb/ Ace not factors so far.

Miller has played very good defense, he just hasn’t scored at all.

My wife got up with 4 seconds to go after watching the first half, walked right in front of the TV, and i missed the ball going in. She watched the whole half until that point. How can I stop this from happening so i don't miss anything like that ever again?

Besides the lame comments another reason to watch game without wifey. Currently in my Illini quarantine watching game

Sweet Lou would tell you that is how it should be. Even the very best are not ready to star against older and equally athletic college kids who are just as motivated. But all frosh are talented and learning.....how it should be.

 

[IlliniTime]

He’s been quiet but affective. Agree. Referring to Miller.

Grandison got the game of, like, an Amazon delivery truck driver in his 40s who stops off by the court in the park between deliveries, busts a bunch of kids ***es in 21 real quick, and then gets back in his truck, drive home, catch a shower, roll a *****, put on some Al Green, then make love to his woman with a Dr. J poster gliding across his bedroom wall.

Tell me I'm lyin.

I want some of what you're having....

 

[FeelYourPaign]

I have the number for a good divorce attorney.

Wondered who would be first.

 

[altenberger22]

+1. He has been elite on Carr. Carr has only had one make on Trent if I remember correctly

And consecutive 3's against Curbelo

 

[Loyalillini10]

I’ll say it: I love Bardo’s commentary.

 

[Deleted member 747903]

And consecutive 3's against Curbelo

Curbelo is a bit too relaxed on elite players. Needs to be up in their grill like Trent is

 

[FromTheLogo]

As great as the defense has been, the offense has been just as great.

 

[IlliniKat91]

Lots of options. They will all allow you to watch....but all likely to end your marriage. Gotta pick your priorities but I won't even hazard a guess what any Illini fan would choose.

I purposely don't watch with my husband for this reason. He knows I'll be upset-upset if he interrupts during a game.

 

[Ga65]

Have to disagree with the people saying this was one of out best halves. This was absolutely the best half! 12 assists on 16 goals, 11/11 from the line and really consistent defense.

Solution: Duct tape, the all purpose problem solver.

GO GET THAT BIG MAN!!

 

[New Creation]

Just win baby!

 

[Miles Leonard]

Beautiful start to the half!

 

[hoopsfan47]

Love Grandison going 2-2 from 3. No hurry, smooth, confident....sure need that.

 

[Turpin & Tate in 2008!]

Exactly the start to the 2nd half we needed.

 

[chrisRunner7]

I agree with Bardo... Robbins doesn't look like he should be out there on the floor.

 

[LoveLovie]

Adam Miller's misses are so clean that a lot of times Kofi gets opportunities like that.

 

[the juiceman cometh]

Where's this Kofi passing game been hiding?!

 

[LostinNebraska]

Robbins shouldn't be on the floor.

 

[ILLINI IN NE]

Strong start.
Not sure why Pitino has Robbins in.

 

[FeelYourPaign]

Kofi with an assist.
So good to see
