Game Thread: Illinois vs Michigan State

[bjp84]

Its a replay of UCLA game. We let one guy go off

 

[UCantHideYer]

In all of Sweden, can’t find a flop that big!

 

[WeWillWhen]

Too. Many. Three. Attempts.

 

[Pikeillinifan]

If u told me at the tip that we’d be up 4 at half I’d take that.

Instead I’m furious.

This team seems to make us all feel that way.

 

[CDRUSN]

The dude with the mohawk who is killing us looks like he cuts his own hair with a rusty set of clippers and a cracked mirror.

 

[Witherspoon_illini]

Damn that 13-0 potentially ruined what was such a great start

 

[Coop70]

Will looks like a PEZ dispenser out there. Refs gonna think he's faking every play soon.

 

[illini510]

What can we read into Tre White getting 0 minutes in the first half? Brad hinted that he had a talk with Tre but I didn't realize he was getting Carey Booth treatment all of a sudden while Humrichous got abused by Kohler time and time again smh

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Those two offensive fouls called against us are unbelievably bad.

The Will Riley one was very real. Chicken wing to the head. The Boswell one was awful.

 

[OrangeKrush1981]

Someone should coach Morez. Or admit they can't handle the job. The kid has the desire, size and tools.

 

[DeeIL89]

We need to stop shifting away from the offense that got us big lead cause we always lost the lead whenever we do this plus add on the turnovers.

 

[JSpence]

Too. Many. Three. Attempts.

Against any team, it's too much. Against THIS team, it's ridiculous.

 

[abchew2]

Couldn’t have started any better so bummer to let them back but good teams fight back. Need to stay focused for 20 more and should be a solid win.

 

[FloridaMan]

13-0 run with NO TIMEOUT!!!! WTF???? That and 17 threes. I really gotta question the coaching this season.

 

[skyIdub]

Those two offensive fouls called against us are unbelievably bad.

I think you may want to watch the one against Will again. He tried to pick that dudes nose with his elbow.

 

[Mistakenj]

God, this team has NO swagger

 

[Fly Illini Fly!]

Why do we always allow the “low percentage” guys to shoot? Guard everybody

Everyone does.

 

[BlabDunkAnd1]

That is so disrespectful to his mom who cut his hair

 

[GetAWin]

Tomi needs an IV during halftime.

 

[Pikeillinifan]

What can we read into Tre White getting 0 minutes in the first half? Brad hinted that he had a talk with Tre but I didn't realize he was getting Carey Booth treatment all of a sudden while Humrichous got abused by Kohler time and time again smh

I wonder what happened? We could really use him tonight.

 

[Rainier Wolfcastle]

Too. Many. Three. Attempts.

There better be some halftime adjustments. BU needs to go off on them about their shot selection and lack of movement. Pound it inside and then pound it more. That’s how we win.

 

[WyattEarp]

If u told me at the tip that we’d be up 4 at half I’d take that.

Instead I’m furious.

Are you feeling alright…that’s like 2-3 mildly, vaguely negative posts in a row…and in a game thread to boot. I gotta say, you’re throwing off my sense of the universe a little bit.

 

[New Creation]

Thoughts?

 

[Ryllini]

When we aren't whipping the ball around and moving on offense, we are hunting a pick and pop 3. Why did we feel that was time? To get Tomi more involved? He will find his. Did not like the O in the last 5. Did not like our defensive rebounding.

 

[BoiseBaller]

We don't have a player capable of guarding Kohler. He's bullying us.

Well, Humrichous can't really guard anybody. So whoever he has typically scores a bunch. Tonight it's Kohler.

And he's not hitting his 3's, so he's a big net negative on the floor. But Brad will still play him 30+ minutes.
