Game Thread: Illinois at Minnesota

[Turpin & Tate in 2008!]

He traveled pretty badly if not for the hook.

I thought so too, but happy to see him pick up an early foul.

It's literally on now

Had to go to antenna. Thanks

What percentage of our turnovers are us trying and failing to deliver the ball cleanly to Kofi?

Want to see The Maestro have a good game today. Nice drive for a bucket. Keep it up my man.

Ummmm wtf..why is Curbelo leaving Carr....

 

[Miles Leonard]

Carr on fire so far

 

[FeelYourPaign]

Minnesota a scrappy bunch.
Does not shy away from contact

 

[JFGsCoffeeMug]

Really nice ball movement.

 

[the juiceman cometh]

Good Belo!

 

[skyIdub]

Just guard Carr and avoid TO's and this is a W.

 

[Turpin & Tate in 2008!]

I like watching Grandison shoot free throws.

 

[New Creation]

pretty ball handling and assist there

 

[JFGsCoffeeMug]

Hitting all of our FTs so far.

And Grandison with the beautiful made 3.

This comment has been on repeat for three games now. It's going to come back and bite us, whether that's today...who knows.

 

[IlliniTime]

Grand performance from Grandison so far.

 

[spillini]

Game so far is a great example of how hitting FTs can help cover TO issues

 

[skyIdub]

You just can't have TO's AND poor FT shooting together. We are good enough to survive a poor night on one of those two...but together against good teams...or on the road..and you're toast.

 

[TCTORNADO]

I like watching Grandison shoot free throws.

Leading % in NCAA.

I think my 4 year old might have made that shot after that good of a find. It was basically basketball fate because of the remarkable find.

I'm overstating it of course, but that was a really nice find.

 

[FromTheLogo]

Carr may have 20 shots today. At this point, only way they have a chance.

 

[LostinNebraska]

Grandison showing up big time so far - I likey

 

[BRucks]

Shooting 60 %
