Same! Thank you for the replay. I wanted the tv to show it, but it never did. I yelled in excitement knowing it was cool, but I had no idea what he did!

We went from 10 to 5 in NET and Oregon went from 11 to 23. 
Offense players can take a shot on Ben with no need to adjust or hurry. Players he guards have a extremely high shooting percentage. Missouri and NU offense was predicated on isolating Ben

There is no good AI in my opinion, particularly where it creating art is concerned, but that's not a conversation for this thread.

Final conf game at ScUM for Flyin Illini
Wow good catch. It makes sense though
Fair, but if we're gonna criticize the dude when he's playing terribly ( I know I was!) , gotta give him the props he's earned when he plays well. Loved his overall effort and aggressiveness too.
Said after the Bama game this was the first "soft" BU team I had seen and hoped they could respond. Even without the shooting clinic, we played TOUGH on the road last night. Credit to all our guys....let's keep it up and win another B1G title.

Gotta give BU/staff some credit for an adjustment to get Ben going. I told someone the other day that Ben doesn't look super confident shooting corner 3s. Some guys just don't like that look at the basket. Last night they ran a lot of the pick n pop at the key to get him looks either straight on or from the wing where he's clearly way more comfortable. Very subtle change, but good coaching to put Ben in a position to succeed.
He went up for a board late and it fell off the rim and landed harmlessly on his shoulder. Like he never saw it.
Confidence looks shot.
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!! Some just don't get it.

And people were calling for Tre White to be benched after a few games and Riley to start. Heck, people were questioning even signing him based on just his Louisville season.
Most fans are too impatient and look at sports now as if everything is a fantasy team — stats are all that matter and rarely matters who they’re against. More to building a team. And these coaches have a plan and get to see how it and players are progressing more than 40 minutes every 4 or 5 days.
Then there is the flip side as fans go from 0 to 60 when something good happens. Lot of people already penciling Illini in F4 and national champs. Certainly have the potential based off of that game, but seeing it more than once might be something worth waiting for. But that’s what we do as fans — and some much more than others.
Very excited about win, but I’ll just enjoy the ride for awhile before proclaiming that destination has been reached.
That’s the perception that Oregon players had last night. If you watch tape, you’d see that Ben has has the potential to be way better defensively than he showed earlier in the season. Brief highlights with players scoring on him don’t paint the full picture. I supported him earlier in the season and will continue to support him now. He’s a good player on a loaded team and plays a key role as a help defender that can stretch the floor. Our ceiling is higher with even a decent version of himself.

He's so smooth, it looks like he's not trying.
Dude is an athlete.
BU knows - and has always known - what he has with Tre.
What are the players shooting percentages he is guarding? Curious to know where you got that info.
The backwards-between-the-legs pass was fantastic, but this one had a higher degree of difficulty. Had to back the tape up because I lost the ball in real time. Saw KJ looking to the right, so I looked there, too. Then all of the sudden Morez had the ball....
I wonder how many guys had passes carom off various body parts the first few times they played with KJ…
