Game Thread: Illinois vs NC State

[Lord Snow]

Thank god Dennis Smith needed a blow here. He can do whatever he wants against TJL

And anyone else too. TJL will get better for going against him.

 

[CARPET]

My money is on Illinois tonight

 

[Bailey]

And anyone else too. TJL will get better for going against him.

Yeah, in his defense, I don't think anybody in that building can guard Dennis Smith.

 

[Second and Chalmers]

They're bad. We should win this.

 

[BillMo]

TJL looks great! I wonder how many minutes he'll play tonight.

he wont play enough unless he stays in the rest of the game

 

[Second and Chalmers]

Too many ball-stopping post ups though

 

[blmillini]

It is nice to see a few guys attacking the offensive glass for rebounds.

 

[winorlosewestillbooze]

Regardless of freshman mistakes and maybe some questionable defense at least from the eye test our team seems so much better with TJL out there over Tate

 

[Bailey]

Where is DJW?

Looking like AJ has moved ahead of him in the rotation.

 

[skyIdub]

Morgan, Black, and Thorne should be able to do that all night.

Two trips up on D with Tate back in...two layups.

 

[BillMo]

we have got to be the easiest team to guard no one moves

 

[illini67]

When as the last time we took a charge?

 

[Lord Snow]

We gotta work inside out with either Mav or Thorne, doesnt matter. We are best that way.

 

[WestIllini]

Team goes on a roll with Lucas in. Groce takes Lucas out for Tate. Brilliant.

 

[Second and Chalmers]

Smith is gonna need to tighten his game up a lot to succeed in the NBA but he is a lot of fun to watch. Big time talent.

 

[Lord Snow]

Get Tate out and keep him out.

 

[skyIdub]

MOAR LOOKAS OMG

 

[Deleted member 16068]

Wow, Tate ....

 

[illini67]

Tate wake up!

 

[Bailey]

Malcolm needs to get more aggressive.

 

[Whitman2020]

Less 1 more 3.

 

[Deleted member 16068]

Smith will take this game over late. We look lost.

 

[helppitch]

Morgan, Black, and Thorne should be able to do that all night.

IMO we are much better defensively when Morgan is guarding the bench.

 

[Sizzler22]

I seriously wonder what Groce thinks about during a game. Why would anyone play Tate at this point in time?

 

[JudsonFTS]

Too bad Tate came back......
