Game Thread: Illinois vs Marquette

[Jimbo]

If Im an nba gm, i’m drafting Kolek if I can. He;s something else.

 

[Miles Leonard]

10 minutes. Nut up or shut up time.

 

[skyIdub]

Let's see that last 10 minutes D vs. Oakland. Lock 'em up.

 

[Ryllini]

Seems like Dain is out for a reason, right? Can’t just be a matchup thing can it?

Definitely a matchup thing and to be honest, it isn't much better for the freshman Hansberry

 

[Loyalillini10]

37.5% from three. 71% from the free-throw line. Hitting shots is making a huge difference. 10 minutes left. Give 'em heck the rest of the way and pull this thing out.

Keep getting Domask to the line and the FT% will go up.

 

[Second place is 1st loser]

Hawkins seems to do great defense man to man against a big, but against a small quick guard or rapid ball movement he looks lost.

So, you're saying that 6'10" trying to defend a quick guard is troublesome?

 

[Rusty]

37.5% from 3 for us 28.6% from 3 for them

Don't know Kolek has for breakfast, but I'll take half of that and enjoy the rest of the day.

Ty’s stat line is really impressive right now. Efficient shooting, little of everything, one turnover.

He's been fantastic

I am betting BU is resting players now and planning who will play the last 4 minutes. Very disappointed we did not get more DD tonight. We needed the inside threat.

I don’t understand why Harmon is getting so much PT.

“Best player in practice all week.”

When Harris redshirted, this was the default.

 

[IllinistuckinGopherland]

Maybe if it’s tied at the end they’ll call a technical on Shaka for that long-sleeve under a polo look.

What did he do in his 1 minute to show he can't play? Everyone else got beat on defense too.

That really bad 3 by DGL stapled him to the bench. Harmon is the replacement

 

[PassingBy]

Stop this kid:

 

[IllinistuckinGopherland]

Whistles have been swallowed

I definitely get that but there are better options.

 

[Jon]

"First three of the year" seems to be an Illini heartbreak specialty

 

[Chillinini]

Got gassed. Missing open shots. Good time for a timeout.

 

[ejam21]

of course this kid hits his first 3 of the year in such a big momentum swing...

To do what exactly

Is there a reason our 6'6" guards can't post #22 Jones? He's probably 5'9".
