Game Thread: Illinois at Wisconsin

[Manual3for4peat]

It’s all mental. You don’t shoot it like he did last year and suddenly lose it.

RJ needs to stop shooting 3s. I’m off that boat now.

Dear Coleman,
Put up the shot on those close-in offensive rebounds.
Please and thank you…

I thought it was a great kick out to a wide open three. If RJ can’t hit that, I’m not sure why he’s playing.

Edit to clarify in light of another post: I should have said, “until he snaps out of this slump, he shouldn’t be in there”

We need a few extra minutes at halftime for all the first half game film to be incinerated.

 

[FloridaMan]

That's the book on Wisconsin. Pound it inside. We are not swinging the ball and working to do that.

Scout man must have missed that. Agree completely.

 

[Braveheart]

big ten officials suck. Harris don’t walk. It’s called a jab step. Rewatched it 3 times.

 

[Chief512]

I wonder if they do colonoscopies on Saturday? I’m thinking I’d rather have one, than watch this garbage.

 

[danbor]

I love how the announcers start out saying that Illinois is such a 'talented' team and then we go 0 for everything.

 

[fatlard]

Thank god we are not down 20…

I thought it was a great kick out to a wide open three. If RJ can’t hit that, I’m not sure why he’s playing.

If he can't hit that, he needs to take two steps in. Be available for the pass from 15 feet, not 19.

 

[NorthShoreIllini]

He’s the one you call out? Lol

Can add RJ to the list and really anyone. But Epps has been terrible.

 

[Gunner23]

We have gotten it in the paint a bunch. The problem is that we have also missed a bunch in the paint.

 

[HailtotheChief]

I know RJ can make em. He shot well last year and that one reason many expected a jump. If he could just hit a few I honestly think he would think less about missing. I honestly feel most of his issues are mental.

A sure two > A second three attempt

Those are the little calls that home teams get in the big ten. The ones you don’t get in the tournament. Because they’re not a travel.

But hey, never change big ten. 2000

 

[FloridaMan]

Big ten should ban the ref from chewing gum during games.

 

[SaintLIllini]

just feee dainja every time

 

[New Creation]

13-16 with under 4 to go.. yuck

 

[MoCoMdIllini]

Thank god we are not down 20…

33 points seems a long way away.

 

[Mr. Roberts]

Why does Coleman not feed Dainja there.

 

[hoopsfan47]

Wisky is below avg. in virtually every aspect of the game but two....they shoot 3s well and play hard on defense. Illini are sinking to their level and can't match the arc shooting. Illini must play with a purpose and get the ball moving and in to DD.

 

[JJE]

Hey that dainja thing worked, let's jack up another bad shot instead of feeding him.

 

[New Creation]

This is horrible to watch. They are just standing on O.

 

[dbeverly26]

Run the offense, Matt

 

[Jon]

So like is the 3 second call only when refs remember it's a rule orrrr

I wish they would do away with that call as a travel. But it’s in their handbook. Dumb rule
