Game Thread: Illinois at Wisconsin

[GallopingGhost]

This game looks like slow motion on both teams. Where is the energy?

 

[DeonThomas]

Getting very good looks. A positive sign. No step-back threes so far.

 

[ChiTown]

Here we go again no ball movement.

 

[dbeverly26]

I regret to inform you that this team can look horrible on offense without shooting threes

 

[BBlock24]

TSJ with two fouls early. Not ideal.

 

[bergd91]

Is it legal to switch uniforms at halftime?

 

[GallopingGhost]

TSJ with two fouls early. Not ideal.

Probably worse than we think

 

[logjam]

It's Leib time!!

 

[Manual3for4peat]

Boy I’m shocked that there are two very suspect calls against our best player. Shocked.

 

[iillini67]

2 missed calls already

 

[LouHenson]

BIG officiating is simply terrible, how was that a charge the guy was moving sideways? They are simply incompetent

 

[BBlock24]

Game reminds me of the Indiana / Wisky game from a couple weeks ago. Teams can’t make anything to start.

 

[D1959]

Why can’t we ever have a decent first 5 minutes?

 

[SaintLIllini]

Shannon with 2

 

[spillini]

B1G refs doing their best to ruin the product

 

[FromTheLogo]

Can't see an identity on offense yet, besides TSJ driving to hoop (and that hasn't ended well).

 

[Illinifan47]

I may be a bit biased, but I feel like the refs are against us more than any team in the country and have been for a while lol. We get no favors on the road and we sure as !!!! get no favors at home.

Classic Scirotto game. He’s been demoted to one game a week but every game but one or two has been controversial.

 

[Illini_Jack]

We need to calm down, get some good looks

 

[New Creation]

I just wasted so much energy yelling at TSJ because of those bone headed 2 mins he just played. That could cost us the game. Now he is on the bench for the half.

Still on the starting 5 being our worst offensive line up because DD slows us down like KC did.

Epps, TSJ, RJ, TY and CH gets our O rolling

 

[TCTORNADO]

Is 5 total points at first TO bad?

 

[hoopsfan47]

Probably worse than we think

Simply means your leading scorer will not play for almost 40% or more of the game which greatly reduces your chance to win...especially on the road in the B1G. Given this team's lack of leadership...who in their right mine would bet a nickel on a win.

 

[SaintLIllini]

two on Wahl

 

[NASchamp]

Ugh. Two bad calls against TSJ and that will make it really hard for him to get in the game and be a force driving to the rim.

 

[New Creation]

2 on Wahl now.
