Game Thread: Illinois vs Wisconsin

[Ransom Stoddard]

Getting Reuvers off the floor should allow a whole bunch more Ayo > Kofi lobs.

It would be nice to build a good enough lead against teams to get Hamlin in there. Or BBV. We're going to miss KKofi

I hate to break it to you but Hamlin isn’t going to play significant minutes for this team. If he is we are in trouble

 

[Ramrod2010]

We are allowing this game to be closer than it should be.

To be fair, Wisconsin has hit some tough shots this half.

Does anyone else hate that NBA on NBC theme that Fox uses?

The secondary lineup hurt us in a couple of stretches. My guess is the bench will get much shorter in March. Gotta save Trent, Ayo, Kofi...and now Grandy for some 30+ minute games....fouls notwithstanding.

Hell no. That is one the greatest themes of all time.

Brings back the good ole days when the Bulls were a juggernaut.

He could be a usable part eventually but not this year

Two more dunks and Kofi will have his own triple double!

Well we have a new contender for top 10 worst takes.

Hell no. That is one the greatest themes of all time.

Makes me recall Marv Albert. And not in a good way.

Kofi has orange paint chips embedded in his hands.

Guys are going over every ball screen -- I guess to run them off the line -- but it's making for lots open mid range jumpers and layups.

 

[Deleted member 747802]

Smart by Kofi to just let that one go out of bounds!

We're going to need it from somewhere. GB is not frosh GB any more.

I don't think BBV will either.

Ayo's best all around game all year?

I always expect to hear Marv Albert

Yes, aaand it counts

 

[skyIdub]

Wow ok. Marv is one of the greatest announcers ever. So not sure what is to hate about the song or Marv.

 

[Deleted member 29907]

Rest of this half should be post up Kofi and if they help - then skip pass to Miller or Trent.

Maybe, but too many turnovers. That was at least 6.
