Game Thread: Illinois vs UCLA

[logjam]

I will be very interested to see what Tre's minutes are like and how he plays in them. The best version of us is one where we're getting quality minutes from him, even if they might be fewer than he expected or got at the beginning of the season.

I would believe moderate minutes coming off of what ended up being a strong case of the flu...

Don't see them holding us under 80 with Tomi getting 25+ min.

Krush looks energized. That is good.

Too many of those trailing a guard down the lane fouls this year. Teams have it scouted well because Andrews just hesitated waiting for KB to foul him.

 

[blife]

over under on fouling from behind trailing the screen 5?

 

[aaeismacgychel]

Cronin going straight to the press against Illinois. This will be interesting

What were the crush chanting?

 

[BlabDunkAnd1]

I thought the BH experiment was done

What were the crush chanting?

What were the crush chanting?

Skyy's a traitor.... lol

Would love to see Davis get a sneaky 10 / 5 / 3 with a block or two.

 

[FloridaMan]

KJ super frustrating with those totally unnecessary turnovers. When will it stop?

 

[New Creation]

That is not the shot we want Ben taking…and then KJ just hands over the ball to A UCLA player…he is leading the conference in TOS.

THEN BAM. Chucks up a 3. This team is already forgetting what makes them a better team. Not chucking 3s

Tomi’s 3 was in rhythm of the offense.

 

[skyIdub]

"Sky you suck."???

Try harder Krush.

 

[Witherspoon_illini]

Skye you suck! I love it

 

[WyattEarp]

Nice High Low.

 

[FloridaMan]

Nice passing so far! (Except KJ's fumble among a triple team)

 

[The Galloping Ghost]

I really love Rez. We waited so long to see him wear orange and blue, but damn, it was worth it.

 

[Fly Illini Fly!]

Skyy u suck chants after the missed three.

 

[BBlock24]

KJ with a bad luck turnover. Should’ve been a foul per Bardo.

 

[WeWillWhen]

Ridiculous that they didn’t call the reach in that caused that KJ turnover.

 

[illinifan1987]

The Skyy boo's were/are glorious!

P.S I love these seats

 

[tcb13]

thought ucla coach was going to bring the ball down

 

[PROCK]

KJ turnovers man just a run killer!
