Basketball GAME THREAD: Rutgers Hoops vs. Illinois

[greenknight]

RU take note he can SHOOT FOUL SHOTS

 

[ClassOf02v.2]

Why is Cliff in?

 

[FrankZ_RU93]

Dead center FTs too. I yearn for that.

 

[Scarlet Blind_rivals]

Freshman have 1 baskets from both teams despite 3 top 50. Its going to be experience that will win this game.

 

[bac2therac]

and there is it is boys

 

[FrankZ_RU93]

Oh yeah Ron

 

[Rokodesh]

Down 4 nice job. If only we could make free throws

 

[PiscatawayMike]

We are fine. Illinois can't play any better and it is only leading by 4.

 

[bac2therac]

Defense...its all about defense

 

[RU Mike73]

Going to need big 2nd half.

 

[FrankZ_RU93]

Cmon JY. Be smarter

 

[Pancho1939_rivals]

I don’t ever want to see anyone attack Mathis ever again yet praise Jacob.

 

[koleszar]

Young get your head out of your ***.

 

[bac2therac]

omg Paul!

 

[FrankZ_RU93]

Beautiful Paul!

 

[RUsojo]

Paul gutting jt out all you can ask

 

[FrankZ_RU93]

Dagger. Unfair

 

[Rokodesh]

GJ Jacob

 

[FrankZ_RU93]

Escape. Thx on FTs

 

[bac2therac]

huge 55 seconds here

 

[PiscatawayMike]

That PM block is my favorite play of the year thus far

 

[RUPartisan]

Montez proving you doubters wrong. Such an important piece because we have guys in the roster who just can’t play in a game like this. Need to ride him and young

Nobody doubts Montez is a huge part of this team and does a lot of things really well. He is just not a 3 point shooter. Being 20 something percent from 3 means you shouldn't shoot 3's.

 

[zebnatto]

Some nice immeasurables by Paul this half.

 

[Anon1751594821]

We have not played well and are only down 4. Jacob Young gets fouled almost every play even when he is out of control.

Best of Luck,
Groz

 

[biazza38]

What was that call on Tez? Really

 

[RUsojo]

2 for 1 here

 

[FrankZ_RU93]

Screw those made FTs

 

[mildone_rivals]

Bad as we’re shooting, to be down only 6 is good.

 

[Pancho1939_rivals]

That would have been sick... let’s make a free throw

 

[mildone_rivals]

Young reminds me of John Starks.

 

[FrankZ_RU93]

No 3

 

[koleszar]

40% from the foul line. That's fvcking unbelievable.

 

[RU848789]

Didn't think it would be under 8 at the half, so very happy to be only down by 4. Nice end of the half for us. Myles really coming up big.

 

[Pancho1939_rivals]

Wow down 4. We can play better while illinois looks very good.

 

[greenknight]

We win this game 2nd half

 

[shields]

Only down 4 thank goodness.

 

[RUTrack94]

close game at the half ...

 

[Mr. Magoo1]

Totally outplayed and lucky to be down only 4.

 

[PatrickRU92]

gotta be really happy. Geo and Harper haven't done much, our D for most of the half was subpar and we're down 4

 

[FrankZ_RU93]

Yippee. I’ll take it. Myles only 1 foul is huge
