How do you defend that Edey shot? Man.

you can't... just have to double him everytime

 

[ejam21]

man Dain, couldve had a dunk if he rolled to the bucket.....twice
INexperience mistake.

HE's battling on D much better now though even if he did give a foul last time for it

 

[DB11Headband]

TSJ often plays too fast for his own good

 

[FloridaMan]

If i'm on IL bench I start counting out loud every time Edey enters the lane

Edey collecting NIL from some camping company, cause he in there all day......

I had it for a standing 8 count that last posession

body blows, indadvertent ones of course

I think his rule is the 7 seconds rule.. not the 3 second lol

 

[blife]

Getting good looks from 3 just need to start falling, Nice mix of inside and out after the first 2 1/2 minutes today.

 

[Second place is 1st loser]

DD is just a body down there that is it.. Sigh

This is my second defense of DD today lol. When Edey gets the ball that low, it's over. If you front him, they're going to throw it over the top and it's over. The guards have to pressure the ball better. The interior pass can't be "easy". DD is six inches shorter and 30 lbs lighter that ZE.

I just don’t think Dain can be out there much today. Coleman needs to be back out there at the 5. Him taking Edey away from the paint is what works.

 

[pruman91]

Is everyone else getting terribly bad camera stutters?

nope , my meds haven't kicked in........................ YET ??

 

[InDaAZ]

Dainja with Egwu hands today.

It’s more bad positioning than it is bad hands…

Gotta keep him from getting to that spot on the floor with your lower body, that's really the only way. That or just maul him every possession and hope the refs don't call it.

 

[Illinifan47]

Dainja looks lost out there. Missed two rolls. Bad defense. Bad screens. Needs to grab some bench….

 

[New Creation]

not sure that was a foul on Goode, but it was a good one

 

[Illinifan47]

also im tired of falling into a big hole to start games. Brad says it doesn’t matter who starts but it clearly does. Ty and Harris need to start for their energy. Period.

 

[New Creation]

not sure how that wasn't a foul on Eddy for over the back

 

[Ransom Stoddard]

I didn't bother getting into the game thread during the slow start. This place does not disappoint.

 

[Epsilon]

Why isn’t Edey getting called for reaching over the back, like ever?

 

[Epsilon]

It’s more bad positioning than it is bad hands…

Yeah I’ve seen both unfortunately.

 

[ILLFAN67]

About time we get a call

 

[AyoDos11]

Why isn’t Edey getting called for reaching over the back, like ever?

Cause he's 5 feet taller than everyone else

 

[Oldskoolkoach]

Edey with 6 fouls now and 1 called.
2 elbows, 1 illegal screen, 2 over the back, and the ticky tack was called.

 

[CV Illini]

Our basketball IQ is not high

 

[New Creation]

hey Eddy missed a FT! and now has 2 fouls.. great job TY
