Game Thread: Illinois vs Duquesne

[kyillinifan]

The best they have played all year.

 

[azillini1]

Record is 26

Going to have to increase his NIL $ next year

 

[Stevegarbs]

Dainja’s IQ and overall ability to convert has really taken a step up this post season

He was literally told earlier this season to not dribble. And then he does that spin move and lay up. Great improvement.

Sorely disappointed we won’t hang a hunnert on ‘em.

Disenchanted with the uniform choice.

Otherwise, I’m good.

 

[Ramrod2010]

With the S16 in Boston, will we have a good fan representation or will it be an Iowa St./UConn home game?

Definitely UCONN representation will be high. I'd expect higher Illinois count than Iowa State though.

I'm feeling good about this one. I really think they took that hold them to 60's personal

 

[Rich]

I want to see some Hansberry bombs before this game is over

 

[Oldskoolkoach]

Our best lineup right now has dainja and coleman in together. I hope we use it a lot against ISU!

 

[Doogie94]

Outside of Shannon, the team has ZERO turnovers!!

If only TJ could make up for those turnovers with a 30 point game

 

[skyIdub]

This is absolutely crazy to say with all the amazing players in our history.....


We've never seen anything like TSJ.

Apologies to Nick, KG, Cookie, Dee, Deron, Kofi, Ayo, Harper, Frankie, BP3.......

We’re having fun at the DB household right now.

 

[Indy Illini Fan]

95% of CBB fans are bored out of their mind ... And then there is all of us ...

 

[Second place is 1st loser]

Not a fan of the long 3s by Coleman and the wavering concentration on D. We need to take a No-Doze or two and get our focus back.

I think that you are trying to find a fault in a flawless game so far. He buried three of the long threes that you're talking about....which pretty much got this snow ball rolling.

 

[IlliniInCAN]

This may be the best bday gift I’ve had in years! The combo of Shannon, Domask, Hawkins may be one of the best trio’s in Illini history. Such a joy to watch them play well in the tourney. ILL

 

[Rusty]

Why would Iowa St. have a better crowd than us?

They travel very, very well. I am just hoping there are enough alumni in the area to offset that.

I’m worried this game has been too easy.

You might be right. He could cap it off by doing something none of those guys did in a couple of weeks

Party at DB's ??? Say no more ...

I was just saying to my wife that this game is annoying to watch to anyone but Illini fans.

I want close games to watch for every other team.

 

[Jimbo]

Those Sleepers guys are going to going on about us.

 

[Mr. Roberts]

Goals for the rest of the game:

1) Get Harmon a bucket.
2) Get DGL a bucket
3) Get Hansberry some minutes.
