Game Thread: Illinois vs Gonzaga

[Bailey]

We run very little to get ourselves open looks from 3

 

[RickBB]

another brutal call
...we aren;'t getting any favors

We are getting a great experience playing in this one. let’s try to keep this under 10

I agree 100%. Psychologically, that would be a win.

Or the last foul on GB? The ref swallowed the whistle until he saw the ball didnt go in.

Awful

 

[nwebb1]

How is Norvell that open?

 

[Berg88]

The bigger problem than the refs is how we don't have a half court offense.

 

[IllinoisFanAtFSU]

Bench Adonis, play Kipper/Tevian when Giorgi has to sit for foul trouble, and let's play small ball and run all day long.

Don't think you're winning this one, but Adonis' immobility on defense decapitates the scheme

 

[KrushCow31]

I would probably enjoy Bill Walton and his antics if he would just tone it down a tiny bit. He's a huge distraction far too often.

I just sort of consider it two different entertainments. The game and Bill. Separate entities.

 

[Whitmans Sampler]

Adonis is almost worse at setting picks than Matic Vessel.

 

[Ryllini]

Trent is getting hot. Where is our defensive pressure?

 

[Spoon House]

We need people that can put the ball into the basket.

 

[IllFanInMi]

I guess stiff arms are legal in college hoops now

 

[GortTheRobot]

How can Perkins use the same tactic and get away with it?

 

[JFGsCoffeeMug]

FTs are the difference in the score.

 

[winorlosewestillbooze]

Man we definitely would've won the Georgetown game if we had Frazier.

 

[Spoon House]

Good God, Frazier, where was that in the 1st half?

 

[skyIdub]

At least Frazier is starting to Frazier again.

 

[Bailey]

We're not doing much to chip away, but it's nice to see Frazier find his aggression this half. Going to need that if we want to stay afloat this year.

 

[Ryllini]

Man we definitely would've won the Georgetown game if we had Frazier.

I think so too, but you probably don’t get what you got from Feliz either if Trent is in there.

 

[Bailey]

College refs do everything they can to pretty much ruin this level of play

 

[Ryllini]

There is still a glimmer of hope!

 

[JFGsCoffeeMug]

Fouls totally took Kipper out of this game. He wasn't even given a chance.

Agree, and I'm not sure what that last call was for...

 

[bel96]

Agree, and I'm not sure what that last call was for...

a foul for perfect defense

 

[Ryllini]

I’d like to see the replay and I’m not sure that qualifies as a 50/50 call, but what did he do?
