Game Thread: Illinois at Oregon

[CleverHandle1]

No

You're right. Curbelo could never hit a big three, as we just witnessed. Keep the focus KB!

Boswell NBA 3!

 

[foby]

What the hell is Boswell doing

Stroking a sweet 3?

This announcer is straight garbage.

 

[illiniguy24]

this announcer is excitable

Good. It’s late

 

[Redbull]

Is Boswell the new Curbello? Enough with the missed gimmes and stupid TOs!

Boy, some people have short memories.

 

[TheodoreRex]

Can make an NBA deep 3 with ease but can't make a wide open layup, make it all make sense?

Also, anyone else just not like this Bittle dude? Big ol unathletic oger that seems to be dominating us right now.

 

[Flyin' Illini]

Don’t drive… Boswell… just shoot 3s
…percentage may be higher than layups

I think that was a 4.

 

[madillini4]

Awful final play but good half

 

[OrangeBlue98]

Well, that was fun. 20 more minutes of that, please.

 

[LoveLovie]

Up 7 without our best player for a half

Guy has Purdue written all over him.

I don’t know if Jake Davis’s shoulders can carry that beautiful hair and our team for much longer!

I swear… during his transfer commitments tweet..: I thought it was for Shauna Green’s team

I actually like that the announcers are referencing NET ranking in conjunction with the AP poll ranking.

 

[Mistakenj]

OK, Im back to being a Boswell fan

I literally LOLed at this

 

[TrahNeb]

Have we made a single bucket to close a half all year?

 

[FloridaMan]

Would have been nice to get a score on that last possession obviously. But good half. Good on the bench for getting us a lead.

And that was all without KJ

Jake Davis > Ben Humrichous

Confirmed.

Dad is from Rantoul. Reason I’m an illini fan.

I love Illinois Basketball

Our Back ups are destroying Oregon right now.. QUICK SOMEONE GET GREG FROM SLEEPERS ON THE PHONE.. he just laughed at our bench... said we don't have anyone else outside of the top 4

I watch their Illini content, but it really feels like they cover the Illini solely for clicks. The analysis, if any, is usually pretty light and they miss nuance. I definitely prefer the content that Jeremy Warner and team put out.

Good 1st half from the bench. Is this team 0-for-the season on end of half opportunities? Maybe try something going to the basket with a chance to get fouled.
