rogue3542 Posted February 5, 2022 Report Share Posted February 5, 2022 I feel like I say this for every big ten game I watch anymore, but the officiating is just so bad. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FritzIam4IU Posted February 5, 2022 Report Share Posted February 5, 2022 We all love TJD on this team and hope he comes back next season, of course. However, this team has shown in 3 halves against PU and Illinois that they can be really good next season should he decide to head to pros. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5fouls Posted February 5, 2022 Report Share Posted February 5, 2022 Wish we could have set that play for Kopp instead of Race at the end of the half. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zuckerkorn Posted February 5, 2022 Report Share Posted February 5, 2022 I'm afraid Race's 3-pt shot has come back to earth. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeking6 Posted February 5, 2022 Report Share Posted February 5, 2022 I'll echo everyone else. The lead without TJD. Take it all day long. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Euroclydon Posted February 5, 2022 Report Share Posted February 5, 2022 Survived the first half without TJD. They have a shot to take this one but fouls are killing them. If Kofi can hook the defender there's no chance to stop him inside. TJD has to front and make them lob over him into a double team. Durr did his best. I'm surprised he didn't foul out already so credit to him. The UI guards are kicking their legs out to get the fouls. CMW has to get on the refs more. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IUDan93 Posted February 5, 2022 Report Share Posted February 5, 2022 One of these days TJD has to have a monster game against a really good big, or maybe even just a decent game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IUFLA Posted February 5, 2022 Report Share Posted February 5, 2022 Illinois will pound it inside trying to get #3 on Trayce from the start of the 2nd...we have to start out well and get a lead...this is a lot like their games against Michigan State (at home) and Northwestern (on the road) and the Illini won them both...tough, defensive games... We have to compete even harder in the 2nd half, and XJ has to get a handle on Frazier... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parakeet Jones Posted February 5, 2022 Report Share Posted February 5, 2022 I hope TJD doesn’t push too hard to make up for lost time to start the 2nd half and end up making several mistakes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IUKane21 Posted February 5, 2022 Report Share Posted February 5, 2022 Haven’t read any of the thread but just wanted to chime in real quick - if CMW ever decided to go TJD at 4 and Durr 5, like NOW (start of this half), that just might work. Especially against the big BIGS like Edy and Cockburn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reacher Posted February 5, 2022 Report Share Posted February 5, 2022 Xavier and Race need to be on the floor most of the second half. I understand letting them sit when we had a lead but they are our offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zlinedavid Posted February 5, 2022 Report Share Posted February 5, 2022 Lead at halftime with TJD on the bench is an acceptable first half. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last one he had to take since the clock was at 1 I am ok with him taking because if he hits a couple today and they have to start defending him out there, we would have a huge opportunity. Whereas a miss just doesn't change things much. As long as we do not work exclusively for it, it is a medium risk, high reward shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
