Game Thread: Illinois vs Detroit

[Ken]

How so? JT and Tracy have been great so far.

Tracy has been great as a SG and Tate ....well has been Tate but look at the competition .We need to get the best pure point we have some minutes ASAP because the amount of points we have left on the floor simply because we dont have a ft to ft line pg is astonishing

28-15 Illini, with 7:30 to go in the half

Anyone else losing the feed on commercials? I keep restarting it but not sure if I should just wait it out every time. Via Xbox.

Yep, on Xbox as well. The audio kept running but the video stopped during the commercials, it resolved itself by the time they went back to the game.

Jalen needs to stop picking the ball up on the perimeter. You can tell he missed some time and dribbling drills with the injury.

I'm just the opposite. I get a better picture during the commercials. . .

Jay tates vision has come back, and Tracy is just playing unbelievable

I guess you could argue Jay looks great because of the competition, but that's all we have to go on now.

It's worth mentioning he's by far our best on ball defender too. Pay attention to how active he is outside the arc. That's valuable.

Illini in the bonus with 7:00 remaining

 

[Bailey]

Looking for AJ to do something with these minutes.

So the "new" Krush section behind the benches is now just the A section all over again? I'm confused. I thought it was this big deal to get the students surrounding the court?

 

[FeelYourPaign]

AJ definitely hustling. Good to see.

 

[drew306]

Brutal free throw shooting so far

Students are out of school now for fall break I think

 

[BPFor3]

It freaks me out how much DJW with short hair looks like Malcolm Hill!

How is that not a foul when the guy hacks across Mav's arms?
Yes, the ball went out of bounds, but it is pretty darned near impossible to get all ball with your forearm from a player with two hands on the ball

Great shovel pass by DJ

 

[FeelYourPaign]

Its getting pretty helter skelter right now.
Both teams playing fast, but sloppy.
Illini 31-24 at the under 4:00 if I remember correctly, Wizard

 

[Bailey]

You can throw at least 6 of those points out for Detroit. Contested threes that banked or bricked in. We're playing very well.

 

[JoseyWales83]

Only 6-12 from the free throw line need to improve that.

 

[coltjames03]

I get state has earned some of the hate but right now he is controlling this offense very nicely. I know people want the shiny new toy to start but Tate is doing what he needs to. Passing great and controlling offense.

 

[BDMAN]

or free throw shooting woes are back I count 5 misses so far

 

[FeelYourPaign]

JCL may be one-dimensional, but wow! that one . . .

He's had some great passes so far. If only people even slightly respected his jump shot.

Other than the free throws DJ is doing big things when he's on the court. Huge swat before Malcolm came in for him.
