Game Thread: Illinois at Purdue

Same type of DD ran with Kofi expect Kofi blocked out and got rebounds
Correction. He's not "unplayable," bad wording by me not taking my time. He hurts us on D often is what I was trying to say. IMO
Dainja needs to make the most of these non Edey minutes
MM wide open shot with great movement.. wish that would have gone down

RJ's worth his weight in rebounds. I love the effort of this kid.
Our only 3 made is from Harris. That’s not good
I was ok with that three. No I generally don't want him taking that shot, but if they're leaving him wide open to spot up, I'mok with it.
Agreed. He has to shoot that three in the first half.
And who's our alternative? Lieb?
agree...no one within 10 ft of him and he had drilled one before.

We're playing poorly and yet we are right there. Purdue is so beatable if we can just lock in.
That wasn’t a bad 3! He was wide open. Have to take that. He just needs to hit them. We have missed a lot of 3’s again today. Thank goodness Purdue is missing some also. Someone is not calling out picks.
The part that is not good is when we keep shooting threes... when he pass and shoot the 2 that is when we cut in to the lead.
Miss threes are killing us... This is not the 2005 Illini..
To be fair, same foul they called on Edey. As long as it's called the same way, I'm good.

I like the 3-point shots we're taking, they've been open looks, just can't get them to fall as usual. Better than just mindlessly chucking them.

yep , thats why I ONLY listen to Brian B. and Deon T.........sometimes Doug A.....all homers , just like me......it's a trip man....
It really really is............................
Did anyone who watched Brad's Michigan post-game press conf note that he seemed resigned to our slow starts? Don't have an exact quote but his comment made him seem completely resigned to it. He said it's just who we are.
I don't criticize him much because overall he is a fantastic coach but that just seems like an odd thing to say can't be repaired. Take away the 11 point lead we immediately gave Purdue today and we are in control of this game. Can you imagine what our record would be if this was able to be fixed somehow?

DD is just clocking up the lane.. get out of the way
