Game Thread: Illinois vs Minnesota

[Second place is 1st loser]

The likes of Nebby? They're 17-0 in case you haven't checked the standings. This game would be different. Good team, but should ultimately put them away.

Mirk has his 3 ball stroke back. Love to see it.

When Z shoots it clean it looks like the ball gets stuck in a tractor beam to the hoop.

Andrej has easily been our worst defender all game.. So Brad decides to put him into the game to guard Tyson? That's an interesting move.. hope it works

 

[BoiseBaller]

They run good stuff. Extremely patient.

Sweet stroke from Mirk.

MIRK!!!! What a blitz. Huge huge huge threes

 

[FreshlySqueezed]

And after all that, we're shooting our season average from 3 at 35%, which is good.

Any one on this site at the game? Seems like a quite crowd.

And they’re finally into the game, standing up and yelling “defense” with me in our section!

 

[IllinistuckinGopherland]

Just like we said, just need our bigs to start launching threes

Man Big Z is putting a smile on my face today

Our defense has been terrible this is what you get when you come out with no energy. I do not to hear from Brad that he expected this because of bad practices. Change the damn practice habits to get your team ready!.

 

[aveseaboy]

Announcer does realize the Krush isn’t even there right?

 

[Bleedorangeandblue44]

Damn it, stop shooting 3s!

 

[zentrails]

Just like we said, just need our bigs to start launching threes

Yep, Z and Mirk ON FIRE!

 

[NarrowJ]

Mirkovic shooting 52% from 3 over his last 10 games

I love to watch our Big Dogs EAT!

 

[BoiseBaller]
