Game Thread: Illinois at Nebraska

Excellent make by Mayer there. Huge run

CH has awakened! Ball movement has been great the last 3 minutes. Makes a world of difference!

 

[LoveLovie]

We have team basketball folks

 

[grantlab]

LETS FREAKING GO. So much better these last 2 games.

Fantastic answer by this group, love to see the poise by Hawkins as a vet.

That was a big 3rd foul called on Dainja. Can't allow Walker to go off here. Need to keep the pressure on.

 

[Retro62]

Tough foul, Dainja has shut Walker down

 

[NorthShoreIllini]

The ball movement has really been stellar all night. Just missing some open looks. Keep it up!

 

[Bigtex]

Great time our coach - he likes to hold them.

 

[IllinistuckinGopherland]

I’m trying to think of the last guy who exceeded my expectations more than Dainja has this year. Dude is awesome

Coleman literally shot that from Omaha, going by the outline on the floor.

For all the great things he does, there are always the plays that just make you scratch your head. The careless passes, the shots from 8 feet behind the 3 point line. If he can ever eliminate those poor decisions, he will be an outstanding player.

I’m guessing here…but I dunno.
1.) Simplicity…in one sense at least
2.) On paper we have a pretty decent roster to give it a go. (taller dudes 1-5)

3.) We have 2-3 guys that have experience/background playing that way

Yep, I expect to see more of it a little more down the road

 

[HailtotheChief]

Tough foul, Dainja has shut Walker down

Plus guys need to buy some threes. Dain has done a great job not forcing things. Hw hne shot and one make. PhlHe has made some good passes out of the double team

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Great drive and kick by TSJ.

 

[azillini1]

How long has it been sinch RJ had three 3's! Go for 4!

 

[skyIdub]

This half court execution is giving me a basketball Jones.

 

[Bigtex]

Enough of the comments about sitting Mayer

 

[madillini4]

Hey, give us that extra point!

 

[aaeismacgychel]

What phenomenal offense we're playing right now. Completely unselfish, gorgeous to watch

 

[WyattEarp]

Is it me, or did Walker, walk all over town?
I need a replay on that one.

 

[altgeld88]

I love this. We're crushing them and they have no bench depth.

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Enough of the comments about sitting Mayer

He is really good when he decides to play within the offense and shows some semblance of effort on defense. When he doesn't do either, the calls for him to sit are very justified in my opinion
