Game Thread: Illinois at Purdue

[HailtotheChief]

Can we ever get off to a good start? I am beginning to agree with MM.if ya shoot it at least you can’t turn it over!

 

[IlliniMilkMan]

Dain plays zero help defense. Zero.

 

[IlliniForceOne]

Oh look another great start.

 

[PrideOfGreenSt]

This game is basically over. Time to enjoy my Sunday

 

[Seark]

Same old crap

 

[BBlock24]

A slow start is going to be what leads to an early NCAA tourney exit.

 

[americanoutlaw11]

Lol we haven’t even taken a shot and they have 4 lay ups

 

[Epsilon]

Pretty early for a timeout but unfortunately necessary.

 

[Manual3for4peat]

It gets to a point were I begin to question why we haven’t mixed up the starting lineup to try and avoid these starts

 

[aaeismacgychel]

I'm going to go out on a limb here and guess that if we allow Purdue to score every possession and we turn the ball over every possession we're going to lose.

 

[Butters]

Looks like the team stayed in Champaign. Hopefully they get on the bus for Chicago.

[AyoDos11]

Are we allowed to shoot? I can't remember how that works.

 

[RML]

What's the record for most points before the other team gets a shot?

 

[CharliedonSurf]

Announcers stated one of the purdue players has been inconsistent this season. Usually means that player will have a career game against us

 

[TonyClifton]

Should have called that timeout sooner

 

[FreshlySqueezed]

Down 8 and we haven't taken a shot. It's comically bad.

 

[Retro62]

Oh…it’s this team today

 

[Illini8420]

Go to what worked against Michigan. Put Ty in and have him run point

 

[ejam21]

Those replays should really illuminate why Dain gets benched sometimes. Laughable effort on d

 

[Scoregasm]

I think we are mailing this one in.

 

[New Creation]

DD looks so lost on both sides and looks scared... DD literally cleared his self out of the lane to give an open shot.. and already has turned it directly over and responsible for another one.

DD is who to keep and eye out for.. and now we have CH taking corner 3.. he didn't take one three last game..

 

[InDaAZ]

Dain plays zero help defense. Zero.

But if he leaves Edey, it’s lights out…

 

[GrayGhost77]

We are not a morning team.

 

[Second place is 1st loser]

Slow start
Turning the ball over
Scoring droughts
Other teams guards taking advantage
Not getting into offensive sets

Those have been issues all year. This has gotten away early.
