I feel sorry for #22, he will go down in infamy.
He'll be fine. When Belo's playing in the NBA that guy will have a great story to tellI feel sorry for #22, he will go down in infamy.

Some day Ayo will finish off that end of the half reverse move with a mamba-like dunk.Basically said Ayo possesses a rare and exciting combination of speed, strength, and quickness for a slender body type. Mentioned Pippen, Jordan, Kobe, and Vernon Maxwell as comps.
Papi with the nutmeg, lol. I've been watching ball forever and never seen that (or at least remember it). Kid is special.
Did DaMonte look off today to anyone else? No worries just gonna need him Sunday.
I was pretty shocked BU didn’t call a time at the four minute mark and rotate everyone out.Dominated an inferior opponent after a slow start. That was fun!
I don’t know why Ayo was still out there with two minutes to go with the game well in hand. That’s the only thing that bothered me today.
STEAMROLLER!!!!

You kidding. I was pacing the room before the game started, thankfully it was early in the day. The somewhat slow start had me climbing the walls even higher. And it is likely to get worse. I am getting nervous for tomorrow already!Wasn't it nice to have a relaxing TOURNEY win, no pacing the room.
I just sat back and wallowed in warm Illini basketball greatness, sweet.
What are these slippery balls you speak of?Those brand new, slippery balls are death on big men having to adjust their arc while being pushed and slapped. They also hurt slashers that have to adjust their shot while moving and off the dribble jump shooters. Ayo, Trent, Curbelo, and GB all had tough times, on occasion, with those balls. Throughout B1G NCAA games, one could see the impact. Hopefully, by next weekend, they will have enough grit and dirt on them to make a difference. OSU's leading scorer and Purdue's two big men had particular difficulties with them. Maybe they are being used as an equalizer. I definitely would not put it past the NCAA to do something like that. I do realize that it could be that the NCAA just may want the balls to show up on tv better.
Unless it hinders his playing ability why would he want to remove it? The mask is like a trademark on the Ayo brand...a brilliant marketing move if somebody would have thought of it and the NCAA would have allowed it...a distinctive feature that visibly sets him apart from every other college basketball player. I hope they display the mask with the trophy!!Thought I heard him say he had to wear it rest of the season and then after the season determine if he needs surgery. I saw him say it on ESPN radio interview with him a few days ago.
Maybe trying to help Ayo, he shoulda had another triple, but we missed some easy buckets. Tournament MVP might help prove, indeed Ayo is the best player this season.I was pretty shocked BU didn’t call a time at the four minute mark and rotate everyone out.
New balls are very slippery until they get dirt and grit on them. They have a much different impact upon a team's style of play.What are these slippery balls you speak of?
(I feel like I was just set up for a joke)
I get where you're coming from, but try this... it's what I've decided on. We have already had an AMAZING year (pretty sure I heard someone tell me it was amazing a time or two). If we lost tomorrow, we STILL had an amazing year. Every win from now on is just gravy. Everyone in our program has worked their collective tails off and somewhere along the line, they figured out how to enjoy playing the game and have a little fun. Turn on the game, enjoy it for what it is, and have a little fun. I'm all in with these guys win or lose. They are just so damn entertaining to watch. I love this team. Losing tomorrow will not change that. And I like our odds. We're dialed in. We're like an orange and blue shark with a friggin' laser beam coming out of his head.You kidding. I was pacing the room before the game started, thankfully it was early in the day. The somewhat slow start had me climbing the walls even higher. And it is likely to get worse. I am getting nervous for tomorrow already!
GO ILLINI!
