Game Thread: Illinois vs Quincy (Exhibition)

[Miles Leonard]

Threes are finally starting to drop now.

This - I’ve been saying that all off season

Reminds me so much of Kendall, even as Kendall freshman/ sophomore. Sure hope he comes back benching 225lbs 20x and shooting lights out and playing smothering defense like Kendall. Great eval and get by Coach Frazier. Also CONGRTS Coach Frazier on Baby Son.

RJ needs to take a class on the Jordan mentality. If he had that visible rip-your-heart-out mindset, he'd be a surefire superstar. All the tools.

Also, I know its just an exhibition game, but this team just seems a bit dead/flat emotionally. Hopefully it's just early in the season. Guess we'll know soon enough.

I'll take a shot:

CoHawk
RJ
Skyy
TSJ
Ty
Sencire
Mayer
Epps
Dainja

Much appreciated Dub!

Sencire with a couple years and 15-20 Fletchlbs on him is going to be scary af.

It’s not early in the season, it’s pre-season

Sincere has IT

 

[Sedino]

Why?

We were a bottom defense in the Big in almost every stat except for steals and also one of the bottom teams in the country in fouls.

Dainja reminds me of BBV. I hope he can finish around the hoop / his free throws look better than those last 2 attempts. I think he’s a lot less gun-shy than BBV was though.

Think it's more first game jitters with a lot of new pieces in the fold.

The score also doesn’t reflect the number of high banked threes and lucky makes by Quincy….

Personnel now >>>>>>> personnel then

 

[SescIllini]

Fan of Sincere but lets get off the hype train. He is doing what I thought he would do, kind of a raw Luther Head his freshmen year. More impressed with Clark and Epps, two fundamental guards that can play the half court sets you will see in the BIG and bigger games.

What is the score?

 

[Sedino]

Personnel now >>>>>>> personnel then

BU would be the very first person to say that defense is not based on skill it is based on effort.

 

[pruman91]

What is the score?

66-41.......beloved

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Epps has struggled tonight, but will improve as he gets more comfortable with the offensive and defensive schemes

 

[WizardBill]

TSJ is a REAL gamer!

 

[NASchamp]

What is the score?

Now 69-41 with 6:25 left. Sorry, I meant Quincy has quite a few points they shouldn’t…

 

[Calvin]

I'm impressed with the defense. Turned into a lot of easy transition points.

lol TSJ was shooting at a hoop in Bement there

I used to live in Bement actually

 

[Tbear90]

I don't hear any talking from the players to each other. Men need to get loud and communicate with each other. DD knocks off this rust after not playing in 2 year gonna be a beast. Large human.

Sencire Harris has the dexterity of a spider and the stickiness of its web.

 

[LoveLovie]

Dainja in the right place at the right time!
