Game Thread: Illinois vs Minnesota

[roger murdock]

Someone who understands coaching more than me please explain the following. A player scores 13 in the first half, and the coach decides he should be on the bench starting the second half. I just don't get it.

 

[Sizzler22]

Anybody else see the lineup that clicks? TJL, JCL, MH, Kipper, maverick

 

[CoalCity]

That is what Tate and Abrams do is give you some defense. Unfortunately we do not have complete players. So, you have to pick what you want on the floor.

Actually I typed that after Tate went flying past a three point attempt after being about 10 feet behind the pass...

Kipper has not looked good in practice.

Ahhh, makes sense. Thx

Who is 5-5, 2-2 from 3, only 1 TO and no fouls. There is no reason to keep him off the floor. He only played 12 minutes.

0-7 to start the half

 

[Illini B-Ball Fan]

No points in 4 minutes. Bring in Kipper.

Crispin just commented on that. He's very passive aggressive talking about the coaching decisions.

Nobody has attempted more NBA type shots than Hill.

 

[LurkLongandProsper]

Thorne looks like he had 30 pound weights on his ankles for the last month and a half and finally took them off

 

[Cheez]

Need more Kipper...

Wouldn't feel right without one.

 

[westcoastillini]

Where the hell is kipper. This is idiotic

 

[Trakis]

I really can't believe Kipper isn't in.

 

[Sizzler22]

This is an easy decision, you stick with the hot hand and that's Kipper. I just don't get it. Anybody else think Groce is just super stubborn?

 

[champaignchris]

How do you keep the guy who scored 13 points in the first half on the bench for the first 4:30 minutes of the second half when your team only manages to score 2 points?

WTactualF?!?!

 

[Adnarel]

WE WANT KIPPER

*clap clap clap-clap-clap*

Yes. And that's why he won't be here next year.

 

[LurkLongandProsper]

Finally

 

[Trakis]

about time. good lord, groce.

 

[Cheez]

Kipper's in everybody!!
