Game Thread: Illinois vs Wisconsin

[TCTORNADO]

Illini with 9 TO's is surprising

 

[skyIdub]

News flash for the Badgers: you'll need to shoot better than 50% this half to overcome a 3/1 rebounding deficit.

 

[altenberger22]

Is it fair to even think about the NBA experts encouraging Kofi to stay for one more year to work on (1) his hands, (2) perimeter defense and (3) his 8 to 20 foot game around the basket?

And Ayo not far from one.

with Ayo at 13/8/4 .... who/when was last Illini with triple double?

Illini with 9 TO's is surprising

I was counting them. not surprised.

Love how Kofi is finishing today!

 

[OrangeNBrood]

Giorgi also had a nice half. Good to see him get a couple to fall.

Yeah, it was dope cuz Kofi and Georgi just basically took turns doing humiliating **** to Potter.

There was this cutaway that showed Potter and Kofi chattering.

Bet Micah was like "hey, can you guys stop scorin on me, at least for, like, a little while? My parents are watching... and my mom already suffers from depression cuz m'dad smells like corn".

Huh? He looks substantially quicker than last year to me. He was plodding last year and scored based on his freak size. Now he's got moves. Some really filthy stuff sometimes, too.

I disagree my friend he looks bigger and a little slower to me due to the pandemic he had no access to Fletcher Fletch. But he is rounding into form so quickly it's going to be scary as we move forward that's my opinion but he is doing amazing things and he continues to get better each game

 

[altenberger22]

That's not how sports or statistics work.

OK, I'll settle for 0-9 again!

 

[azillini1]

Let’s put them away

 

[RoundBalcs]

One of these Kofi Dunks is bound to tear down the backboard, right?

Grandy

29-11 Illini advantage on the boards.

 

[skyIdub]

Grandy's D on Wahl is outstanding!

 

[31D1kids]

Cabello just got posted on defense. And then a double whammy on offense all right I can't stand it and I love the skills he's going to be awesome take him out of the game sitting down

 

[altenberger22]

Curbelo not looking very good in this half either.

 

[Deleted member 747802]

Too many turnovers! Don't need any more missed possessions.

 

[Ransom Stoddard]

Curbelo will, at some point in his life, be on the Harlem Globetrotters. And I'm saying that as a compliment.

 

[skyIdub]

No need for the cuteness from Curbelo.....just solid movement and good passes.

 

[Deleted member 747903]

This is not curbelos night. BU needs to be very careful with his minutes right now. We are very lucky wisco is not converting on his turnovers

 

[azillini1]

He jumps in the air way to often forcing him into TO if the passing lane is plugged

 

[altenberger22]

Let’s put them away

Two separate 16 point leads...........let's keep it at 12+ from here on out.

 

[Hopingfor500]

Curbelo will, at some point in his life, be on the Harlem Globetrotters. And I'm saying that as a compliment.

For this year, if we can get the Generals on the schedule from here on out, that would work great!

 

[ChocolateThunder]

We are speeding the Badgers up.

 

[WizardBill]

THAT was excellent, unheralded, defense by Giorgi!
