MM can't possibly play worse- not seeing a consistent effort from him and his 3 points shots have been low quality and not close and his defense uneven to say the least. It's apparent Goode will be taking RJ's minutes but I'd rather, at least for this game, have RJ taking MM's minutes. Not catching up or extending into a lead with Oumouryi in the game might spell doom for this game. When we do have a fast break and CH is ahead of the action on the perimeter, I'd avoid passing it to him as he always passes back to someone 40 feet from the basket thus killing the fast break opportunity. So frustrating that we always seem to be playing from behind at home- not allowing our fans to get crazy.

After this much of the season, we are what we are. Obviously, we aren't going change. I was really hoping we would start playing better as the season went on. Still a chance, but I'm really starting to get concerned.

Agree...doing the same things (and blunders) over and over and expecting a different result.

TSJ 3 points and MM with none. And we are only down 3 points.

I'm trying to stay positive but then I remember that Omoruyi sat the last 8:13 of the half.

Sloppy passes and missing threes again. Not a good half. Need to turn up the D and take care of the ball in the second half. We need to play with real intensity for the next 20 minutes and we can take care of business.

RU in Champaign 0-6 and Brad has never lost back to back games in the last 3years. So let’s see if this stays the same in 20 game mintues

Coleman gets abused at rim and starts yelling at Dainja. Buddy shut up and nevere never quit on the play! Basketball ball IQ is absent in CH. 👌

Ok, get ready for a run by us. I’m calling it. Next 5 minutes will be golden.

Back to their old, annoying ways. Sluggish, balls bouncing off feet, defenders not helping and just standing there. Unreal. Illinois will end up being a 8/9 seed and probably lose in R1, if they keep this up. Where's the life?
