Egwu is such a horrific basketball player. I have 0 idea how he hasn't improved 1 but in 4 years.

 

He's improved a lot. He was really f***ing awful as a freshman. Bad hands is a basketball player killer (see also Kwame Brown). It really is too bad Darius Paul f***ed up, sure would be nice to have him backing up Egwu this year.

Illinois will miss Abrams in the long run since it means Tate plays.

Illinois will also miss Abrams when their starting PG goes 1-10 while going 1-7 from 3. The illini should have probably played Tate more in this game, but not with Colbert and Black out there with him. The rotations need to be tuned up a bit.

No. Tate is really awful. He was dreadful defensively tonight and teams only have to guard 4 players when he is on the court.

1-10 with 1 assist is pretty awful. Starks cost the team possessions with just terrible shot selection. I'm not saying Tate played well by any means, but I would have rather watched him more with Nunn, Hill, and Rice than Starks tonight.

 

All in all, they were both terrible.

The answer is not playing a PG at time. Tate isn't a Big 10 level guard and if he didn't play for Simeon in high school he wouldn't have been offered a scholarship.

I could get behind that. Just let Rice be the primary ball handler. He did it at points last year and he looks even better so far this year.
