Game Thread: Illinois vs Duke

[abchew2]

The 3 pt shooting on this team has set the game of basketball back significantly

I think we might be giving up 60 pieces in the first half.

 

[Second place is 1st loser]

0-11 from three. It is laughable at the this point.

It’s either that or he doesn’t care. He had a nice fat contract until 2030 - so does his son. Maybe he just wants to coast?

This game is over. Season too. Ben is a liability every game. On offense and defense. Yet…. He’s on the floor. Almost all the time it seems. Every time I look up. There’s a mistake by him or a missed shot. This has gone beyond reasoning. I’m out.

 

[Keisersose]

And it’s been like that for awhile. Guys like TSJ hide it well.

 

[Illini88]

There’s a break. Clearly offensive on KJ

 

[D1959]

We just continue to embarrass our self game after game from three point range

 

[KBLEE]

If a team is terrible at something (making 3s) why continue to do just that game after game? The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.

 

[The Galloping Ghost]

Ben is 0-3 and doesn't have an assist, rebound, block, or steal. He also has turnover. And he's not playing any defense. What the heck are we doing here, man.

Riley playing himself into top 5 pick. He is the lone bright spot.

Most were clean looks too.

 

[Pikeillinifan]

It’s like we don’t have any game plan or even run plays, we are so overmatched from the coaching side of things it’s embarrassing.

 

[NarrowJ]

There’s a break. Clearly offensive on KJ

Make up call for the push off that wasn't called on the other end on previous possession

 

[westcoastillini]

This is pathetic

 

[ILL-Intentions]

Yep, I’ve seen enough. Turning it off and going for a 12 of latte’s

 

[illini80]

Well, we are slowing them down with our fouls anyway…..

 

[PasadenaIllini]

Lottery pick? I love you KJ, but I'm sorry. I just don't see it. I'm not even seeing a first round pick at this point. Too much of an inconsistent shot, too loose with the basketball, and way too vulnerable on the defensive end.

 

[WyattEarp]

I feel bad for Duke. They scheduled this game to help them get ready for the tournament.

Come on. Let’s not add insult to injury here.

 

[Mr. Roberts]

 

[aveseaboy]

We are a joke

 

[New Creation]

This team has either quit on this coaching staff or they are just horribly coached. I mean horrible. TOMI continues to make the same mistake with the turnover trying to back door bounce pass.

This offensive is very easy to guard. Hard hedge the pick and roll.

The defense just decides to leave people open and drop coverage PGs who can freely shot the free throw line elbow shot.

Right now. Josh W really needs to consider making some changes.

 

[TyroneHogglegg]

They are going to put up 100 on us

Teams given up.
