Game Thread: Illinois at Ohio State

[aaeismacgychel]

Oh boy has this been a terrible 4minutes of basketball by us.

 

[NashvILLe05]

Bam, wake TF up!

 

[thehass]

We have fallen in love with the 3 point shot and not going to the basket. Where have we seen this before?

 

[IllinistrandedinHouston]

Win the first 4 minutes by 7 pts n let's go!

Did not age well

 

[HereSoIDontGetFined]

Crowd silencer from Drej

 

[Miles Leonard]

Yes. Need more cuts to the hoop just like that.

 

[aveseaboy]

I thought the same thing David walked halfway across the court to tell him to too

 

[FloridaMan]

Effectively it is

 

[NarrowJ]

I told you guys this game wouldn’t be a gimme

Spread was -3.5, have zero business being upset this is close

 

[LuckyIllini]

Take Boswell out.

 

[Flyin' Illini]

Ivisic is a very good shooter, but when he misses, he comes up EXTREMELY short quite frequently.

 

[Jimbo]

Welp. Another dog fight. Nothing is ever easy with this team.

A road game against a mid pack big 10 team will not be easy.

 

[SweetLuh]

Kylan and Tomi being no shows just can not happen at this point in their careers.

 

[BoiseBaller]

Defense has been problematic all night, but even worse this half.

 

[Second place is 1st loser]

Absolutely, but at what point in the game were you finally able to exhale a bit? That was a game we finished clean. I don't exhale with this group unless it's double digits with less than 2 minutes to play.

Mirk might legit be the best passer on this team.

 

[ChiTown]

Whatever happened to our new improved defense scheme this year?.

 

[LarryGotFouled]

OSU is unconscious this game. They are not nearly this good.

 

[DB11Headband]

Paging Mr. Boswell

 

[HereSoIDontGetFined]

Defense has been subpar this half. Mostly failing to prevent the ball from getting inside.

 

[HailtotheChief]

Mirk might legit be the best passer on this team.

Maybe give Mihailo more than 3 min....he played at a higher level than this.

 

[NarrowJ]

Whatever happened to our new improved defense scheme this year?.

Well the opponent adjusted defense is 17th as opposed to 40th or 80th

 

[skyIdub]

Mirk might legit be the best passer on this team.

This aged like fine work shoes.

 

[TheodoreRex]

At this point- absolutely no more excuses for Tomi- he proved he's just fine a few days ago. He needs to wake up asap.

Paging Mr. Boswell

I have a hard time getting upset with him. He's been so good for us. Tonight has been an absolute nightmare on both ends. I'm sure some embarrassment on the defensive side is leading to him trying to force things on the offensive side.

When a guy is on pace to drop a 40 burger on your head, it can't be real invigorating.
