Game Thread: Illinois vs Houston

[FloridaMan]

So because a guy weighs more than you it's ok to flagrantly foul him. Good take, Gene.

 

[schnaurt]

Need shooters. Plummer and grandson threes are needed

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Kofi needed to finish that

Hard to do that when you have no arms to shoot the ball with

 

[CarsonHowe_9]

Keep feeding kofi

 

[sdfidaho]

They mugged him. Come on.

Reply looked more brutal than looked in real time to me.

 

[Epsilon]

The announcers are trying to say it’s okay to foul him hard because Kofi is big. FU.

 

[the juiceman cometh]

Well, another opportunity squandered

 

[madillini4]

brutal

 

[Manual3for4peat]

Let’s throw it to our center in the corner. What are we doing?

 

[hiberto]

looked like kofi was getting hammered before he threw the ball away too

 

[Champaign88]

Our inbounds plays are such trash. We have to change that next year.

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Needed to call a timeout there on that Kofi trap. That one is on Underwood.

 

[HailtotheChief]

Can we move in offense!

 

[TheChief4Life]

I'm sure it's not for lack of trying.

I agree. Certainly didn't mean to make it sound like a criticism. Just a wish

 

[Jon]

Can't inbound the ball is a problem I really hoped we were over

 

[WSIOTCSS]

Lol

 

[Spirit of the Prairie]

How many points does Curbelo have? Maybe if he stood on his head and shot.... He's entertaining. He's delightful. He's artistic. He's thrilling at times. But it's basketball and it's a team sport, not a circus and not a solo performance. Underwood needs to take him out and start yelling at the rest of the team to play basketball. Really, are we going to let Kelvin Sampson's team beat us??!! Come on, Illinois. Play basketball!

 

[Calvin]

This is Friday all over again.

 

[NorthShoreIllini]

Great inbounds plays

 

[Ryllini]

Lazy, lazy, lazy! Tighten this sh*t up boys!

 

[RML]

Good lord.

 

[CentralILLini]

Edwards might get 40

 

[madillini4]

 

[skyIdub]

Just pass the ball to anyone. That will work.

 

[sacraig]

This is like the turnover squad we had at the beginning of the season. We've played putrid offense, but points off turnovers are the difference in the game.
