chw42 Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Dec 8, 2012 -> 11:01 PM) Mark Few, what are you doing? Does he not know the huge advantage he has? They have a huge size advantage on the inside yet they're doing almost everything they can not to take high percentage shots on the inside.

chw42 Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 Illini are playing too conservatively. They're trying to dribble down the shot clock when there's still 5 minutes left. That won't win you games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chw42 Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Dec 8, 2012 -> 11:10 PM) Dreadful call. It would have been great if Leonard stayed. We really lack big bodies on the inside. Igwu is the only guy over 6'9. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buehrle>Wood Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 I still don't ever understand a zone for Illinois. Three elite perimeter defenders and Egwu and McLaurin are solid down low. Stop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 That call on Tyler Griffey was just truly awful. They've been bad both ways for sure, but the fouls on our big guys could be what really affects the result. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 And then Egwu does that. Really terrible, have to be smarter than that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 I don't think I've ever seen a defense (Gonzaga) that was so bad at preventing the opposition from driving to their right for an easy layup. You'd think after the 20th time of it happening, they'd make the Illini offensive player go to their left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IlliniKrush Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 Aaaaaaaaand we're a top 10 team. We won't end that way, but I don't give a f***. We completely deserve to be there right now. There's your "Illinois hasn't beaten anyone" win. No way I thought we'd win this game, completely set up for a loss. 12 point dogs. This team is for real. Thoroughly satisfied.

ZoomSlowik Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 QUOTE (fathom @ Dec 8, 2012 -> 11:01 PM) No one gets less out of top talent than Few does. I would say Rick Barnes and it's not close. Gonzaga generally does seem to be "decent" with good players, but they're not exactly pulling down top-50 recruits with regularity like Texas is.
