*** Official #10 Illinois vs #4 IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

[HFCS]

Guys...2s are worthless. Come on.

 

[ISU_Guy]

we needed a 10-15 point game from Milan instead we got not only nothing from him, he was a liability rebounding and huge turnovers.
just a tough game for him with the lights on. oh well.

WHY ARE WE NOT SHOOTING A 3???

 

[jctisu]

Um we need a three

 

[CyGuy5]

Shoot the damn ball

 

[IcSyU]

Wtf Lipsey and Jones. You NEED 3s.

 

[CloniesForLife]

Defensive rebounding, finishing layups and lazy passes leading to easy points cost us this one. That was a pretty bad game from us

 

[Stumbles]

No ******* foul?

 

[NorthCyd]

It doesn't matter, but just shoot the ******* ball guys.

 

[acoustimac]

Game summary: Sloppiness. Bad defense (I.e. foul crazy). Lack of rebounds. Not sharing the ball. Poor shot selection. Pure panic in the end.

 

[Halincandenza]

Just a horrible offensive performance. Held them to 70. That should be a win

 

[Jacktronic]

Rough finish. Good year. I'd be ******* embarrassed to cheer for a player that has an open rape investigation.

 

[Jeffreyisu]

Milan should have never been out there. It's clear that he was overwhelmed from the start. T.J. needed to recognize that

TJ seems overwhelmed. Several bad coaching decisions this game, glaring is continuing to double team for 35 mins of this game.

 

[Gunnerclone]

Check that clock!

On the bright side UConn names the score against Illinois.

Open uncontested layups have destroyed us this game. I count four that I can remember us pissing away. That’s what makes this hurt so much.

It sucks, but I can live with it. To me what really killed ISU that they had 100% control over were the bad shots for the entire first half. Good, patient offense and we’re up up right now.
Illinois’ length bothered ISUs shots. But they absolutely needed to be patient, make Illinois work through multiple passes, but they just didn’t do it and that created that hole, little room for error in the second half.

 

[Cymark86]

Three absolute lazy passes that led to six easy Illinois points. Two blown lay ups on our end.

Don’t say this. Offends some folks.

 

[cyclonestunners]

Why was Milan even back in the game.

Yeah...why is our best 3 point shooter in the season in the game?

I gotta say, that's the best offensive player we've faced this year. Pundits were right about him.

We probably shut him down more than most by forcing the 4 fouls on him, he gets 30+ if he plays heavy minutes.

Hopefully we continue to get better shooting and finishing like we did last year to this year.

ISU gave him open 3s on rotations and he drove hard. Not sure he's best they have seen
