Game Thread: Illinois vs Maryland

[skyIdub]

We are getting punked. Bad.

 

[Second place is 1st loser]

These guys are playing like the expect TSJ to step in and win the game

Well, that's not going to happen, so somebody needs to step up. Actually, they all need to step up because the issue has been on the defensive end.

 

[HailtotheChief]

Ty ....wow

 

[dbeverly26]

will you please play some defense please

I don't know how, but you read my mind. I wasn't going to post it, and it's not true, but it's LIKE that.

 

[InDaAZ]

The ref doing that 5-count must need to go to the bathroom...

 

[Fighter of the Nightman]

We look awful.

 

[Marshall_Lucky]

Basket has a lid

 

[Illini_Jack]

We can't hit anything

 

[JSpence]

I guess just stay close so we maybe don't f'ing lose. Crazy.

 

[Fighter of the Nightman]

I’ll never understand our (lack of) strategy for inbounding the ball.

 

[FreshlySqueezed]

3/20 from the field in the second half. Can't win games if you can't make shots.

 

[Witherspoon_illini]

I have never seen such bad defense inside the arch this year before today

 

[Illinifan55]

He's played 44 total minutes in 8 games against high major opponents this season (counting FAU). Seems like anyone frustrated with his play is just following the head coach's lead.

Dain doesn't fit the brand of basketball this team plays. Fine, that's why Brad doesn't play him as much. But that's not an excuse to hate on the kid...

 

[Godard]

The broad side of a barn just called. Since the team hasn't woken up, it left a voice-mail consisting of three words: "You missed, haha!"

 

[Zorak]

Both teams look dreadful.

 

[Pikeillinifan]

Not our day.

It’s crazy how some teams just have another’s number, regardless of the year and lineup.

 

[DB11Headband]

Have not made Young go right one (1) time

Have not made Reese go right one (1) time

 

[New Creation]

We just can’t make a shot at all. Law of averages playing out for our entire season in one game.

 

[Flyin' Illini]

This team can't shoot from the outside. Why are we letting them get inside every single posession?

 

[FloridaMan]

Have not made Reese go right one (1) time

Maybe the fellas should have been reading the scouting report instead of the DI pregame

 

[redwingillini11]

Can someone put the ball in the basket?

 

[JSpence]

Come on, guys. Give a sh__.

 

[spillini]

Someone loosen that rim during the TO please

 

[Manual3for4peat]

This has been pathetic.
