Game Thread: Illinois at Nebraska

[Oldskoolkoach]

AS didnt sign a 2 year deal, did he? Could we send his number to Dusty May?

 

[Illini_Jack]

Decent start considering the environment. Nebraska fans are fired up.

Stoj is awful today. Literally the worst player on the court right now.

he’s at his best when he lets the game come to him. doesn’t really have the ability to create/force it when needed

Andrej is unplayable right nowView attachment 47047

Big Z and Ben

Stoj is awful today. Literally the worst player on the court right now.

Sometimes he’s so prone to turnovers.

Practically?

 

[NorthShoreIllini]

Andrej, be better

 

[Bigtex]

You realize fhere is offense and defense. Andrej is a good defender. And few options for other guards

Indiana went undefeated and won the national championship in football, and I'm nervous about an Illini basketball game against NEBRASKA. What strange, fresh hell world is this?

 

[DeeIL89]

Jake's looking like he is not in any sort of rhythm shooting his 3s so far. Need Stoj to step up as well.

 

[BBlock24]

Davis does need to hit, but even when he isn't, he frees so much for the others.

Good point.

 

[PapaDelsMadeMeFat]

Drej just needs to settle down and not be forcing things. I like his energy, but he needs to play smarter. He’s dribbled into 3 defenders multiple times already this game.

 

[CleverHandle1]

AS needs to focus on his defense and rebounding. Right now, he's useless on the offensive end.

There's a part of me that feels he should shoot 3's because he certainly is struggling with 2 pointers. Plus, when he misses, good chance at an offensive rebound.

 

[aaeismacgychel]

We’re getting mauled and no fouls what a JOKE

Absolutely going both ways. Z could've been called for a tackle. Tomi could've been called on a rebound as well. Refs simply letting them play. So long as it's consistent I've got no issue

 

[roger murdock]

Alright, no more triple cappuccinos for Andrej

 

[SkyysNotFalling]

Let me repeat…

THE PEOPLE WHO COMPLAIN ABOUT ANDREJ EVERY GAME DO NOT UNDERSTAND HIS IMPORTANTANCE OR KNOW BALL PLEASE JUST CALM DOWN. Soooo sick of every game thread being the SAME thing.

 

[JKR]

Wide open

 

[CentralILLini]

Ton of wide open 3s on each side

 

[madillini4]

Practically?

Huh?

 

[aveseaboy]

Sit Andrej!

 

[TheodoreRex]

I wish we had someone to sub for Andrej...

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Good play Mirk

 

[skyIdub]

Ice Wagler: Activate

 

[chrisRunner7]

Honestly, our defense has looked pretty good so far. Zone mostly working despite all their shooters.

 

[TheChief4Life]

Big 3 for Wagler. Here's to a nice Wagler run!
