Game Thread: Illinois vs UConn

[I Bomb]

Gonna bother me if we're down 20 with a minute to go and still trying to drive the hoop to get them in "foul trouble"

 

[Illinois_in_MD]

We run an offense for three point shooters with no three point shooters on the roster. Oh, and refuse to play defense. Bad combo

I've been told that some of these guys used to shoot 3's at a decent rate before putting on an Illini uniform.

 

[CDRUSN]

Illini still playing ugly enough to make a freight train take a dirt road.

 

[Leelnd]

thats just good front defense

I don’t trust Brad to win big games… ever. I’m a Brad underwood fan but anyone who has been watching this team the past few years saw this soft start from miles away

Are we allowed to say that on this board?

Brad and this team are so similar. Very good, but not in the elite tier like Izzo, Painter, and yeah this idiot Hurley. Brad can’t make in-game adjustments. Never could. Oh well, B+ is still good. Right?

What is he doing?

David PASS THE FLIPPING BALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Iamgroot]

Wtf call a timeout in that situation

 

[RIP_Chief_2003]

David, the the ball out of your hands bro….

 

[hiberto]

looks like no one told them about the NBA line at the half

 

[JKR]

Move to the ball!

 

[ejam21]

wagler got hit like 8 times there

 

[FoundersClub]

Hard to win if you cant shoot

 

[NarrowJ]

They can’t call a foul while two UConn players fall on top of him and smack his arms but the minute they touch ball it’s a tie up lol

 

[FloridaMan]

Wagler got slapped 4 times right in front of the ref with no call. And I guess we need to save all our timeouts for Tennessee?

 

[CleverHandle1]

#3 on 23.

 

[chibar]

Who’s the guy wearing a Humrichous jersey courtside? Is he why he plays so much

 

[Iamgroot]

How are we letting them outrebound us like this its embarrassing smh

 

[TheodoreRex]

Sit Tomi on the bench....

 

[Leelnd]

Tomi can't play right now.

 

[grantlab]

Man… Tomi needs to ride the pine

 

[stlrunner]

Man...we've had like 3 or 4 opportunities to make this a close game, and we've squandered every opportunity they've given us.

 

[SuperMetroid]

Rebound ffs

 

[biglug58]

They finally start to miss, but we can’t grab a defensive rebound

 

[CleverHandle1]

Here have some offensive rebounds. We are soft.
