That sequence was a thing of beauty

These Fighting Illini are f***ing FIRE!

It ain't just a jersey....

 

[New Creation]

Everyone who has checked in has scored…. Depth is beginning to show.

 

[grantlab]

That individual defensive possession by Harmon, fighting over the ball screen, recovering, contesting and then getting the rebound to start the break

CHEFS KISS

 

[Bigtex]

Team

Everyone who has played has contributed and scored

 

[abchew2]

So is Harmon going to hit 4 straight 3s after that ugly shot? Pretty sure that’s how it works

I thought that we were switching everything. Why the going under screens? Just switch

 

[foby]

We are REALLY REALLY GOOD.

 

[WyattEarp]

Luke Goode tenacious! 2 times in a row. Noice!

 

[grantlab]

Every Illini that has played has already recorded a rebound

 

[pruman91]

highlight reel fastbreak with Harmon to Dain back to Harmon for the deuce.....awesome ba-by........

 

[so illini]

Playing with a chip on their shoulder. Love the effort and energy! Go Illini

Team is better with TSjr. but not much when they play together without turns and missed FTs. Lot of evidence that they all want to win and be admired for their skills, hoops IQ, and being B1G warriors. That is all I want. It is how to win.

Agree , also tighten up shot selection just a bit. Great effort and team ball.

 

[pruman91]

I love the HEART of this team......shooting over 60 % and everybody who's played has a rebound........

 

[RML]

I dunno, this might be the best team I've seen all year.
