Michigan vs. Illinois Open Thread
February 16th, 2011 at 9:27 PM ^
Tell yourself he's just flip-flopped position with Hardaway in the early impact player/project roles from the recruiting rankings. I mean, yeah, sure, it'd been nice to have TWO surprises, but when has being greedy worked as a Michigan fan lately...?

i like to poop
February 16th, 2011 at 9:40 PM ^
Such comments are always mental image disturbing.

this half of basketball could very well determine the season.
February 16th, 2011 at 9:35 PM ^
Eh, it would certainly help things, but we don't absolutely need this game to make the dance.
February 16th, 2011 at 9:43 PM ^
And makes getting one of the other unexpected wins to come through. (And of course, making sure we don't blow one we "should" win). This was just the one that could have had us talking "what we need to do to not blow the Tournament", rather than "what we need to do to make the Tournament".
February 16th, 2011 at 9:41 PM ^
We need to take advantage and get this down to a 2 possession game
February 16th, 2011 at 9:44 PM ^
minutes of careless backetball from both teams seems to have been a little more advantegous for us. Just a five point game if morgan can hit these two.
nm wasn't shooting foul
February 16th, 2011 at 9:45 PM ^
OMG Thjr. please do not break your neck.
February 16th, 2011 at 9:46 PM ^
I second that.
February 16th, 2011 at 9:46 PM ^
How is that not an intentional foul. He has a clear path to the hoop with a defender trailing
February 16th, 2011 at 9:46 PM ^
i hate that, reward the player with points but still give him a charge
February 16th, 2011 at 9:47 PM ^
Wait, so you can have a charge and still count the basket?
February 16th, 2011 at 9:49 PM ^
If the ball is already released when contact is made apparently
February 16th, 2011 at 9:48 PM ^
Gotta. Make. Our. Free throws.
February 16th, 2011 at 9:49 PM ^
We're shooting free throws on fouls the rest of the way, that's exciting for me.
February 16th, 2011 at 9:49 PM ^
Now make the fucking FREE throws.
February 16th, 2011 at 9:58 PM ^
February 16th, 2011 at 9:49 PM ^
this isnt volleyball
February 16th, 2011 at 9:49 PM ^
I have noticed a lot tonight that our players have rarely followed our shots. I personally have counted 5 separate occasions where the shooter could have gotten his own rebound
February 16th, 2011 at 9:50 PM ^
If we are in the bonus already we have to hit our FTs.
February 16th, 2011 at 9:53 PM ^
Morris has missed 2 (really 3 since one was the front end of a one and one) and Hardaway has missed 1. 3-4 points we can't afford to lose.
February 16th, 2011 at 9:51 PM ^
Stu does not need to run a fastbreak. and can hardaway get a foul please
February 16th, 2011 at 9:51 PM ^
This is so frustrating, we're right in this game and we just can't hit a freaking shot.
February 16th, 2011 at 9:51 PM ^
We are missing so many wide open threes. So frustrating
February 16th, 2011 at 9:51 PM ^
Shooting 1-12 from the 3...
February 16th, 2011 at 9:52 PM ^
How can we literally not hit anything....
February 16th, 2011 at 9:54 PM ^
2-13!!!
And only down four.
February 16th, 2011 at 9:55 PM ^
Come on guys we got alligator blood.
February 16th, 2011 at 9:55 PM ^
February 16th, 2011 at 9:57 PM ^
if we can get to the under 8 TO with him at 3 fouls we will be in good shape for a run to finish the game. Got to stay within 5-6 though. No mini-runs allowed.
February 16th, 2011 at 9:55 PM ^
Points to Doyle for "Hchanging around... Hchanging around." That is the one and only point I'll ever give him.
February 16th, 2011 at 9:57 PM ^
his metaphors are magical!

February 16th, 2011 at 9:57 PM ^
Much more enjoyable experience.
February 16th, 2011 at 9:56 PM ^
Wow, a Rounders reference? And a poor one at that. Needs to work on that Russian accent
February 16th, 2011 at 9:58 PM ^
Can't wait for him to say, "Just like a young man coming in for a qvickie, the Illini feel so unszatisfied."
February 16th, 2011 at 9:56 PM ^
1 lucky roll and a turnover later and we're 2 free throws away from a 2 point game
February 16th, 2011 at 10:01 PM ^
Except you forgot that we can't seem to hit free throws since the last game against IU
February 16th, 2011 at 9:59 PM ^
I hate these announcers so much it's infuriating. This is the second week this dickhole has made his Rounders "alligator blood" comment. What a fucking tool.
The butterfly spreads his wings!!
February 16th, 2011 at 9:59 PM ^
We gotta take advantage of being in the bonus so early.
February 16th, 2011 at 10:00 PM ^
NOOOOOOOVAK
February 16th, 2011 at 10:02 PM ^
Maybe if they shot better than 2-14 from 3.
February 16th, 2011 at 10:03 PM ^
I'm convinced that Illinois did something to the hoops so that our 3s are going in.
February 16th, 2011 at 10:02 PM ^
Alright. I'm here. We're good to go.
February 16th, 2011 at 10:02 PM ^
and that's mccamey.... come on ... we can do this
February 16th, 2011 at 10:03 PM ^
The four white guys and Hardaway lineup is quite good against them.
February 16th, 2011 at 10:03 PM ^
Morris has been on the bench for awhile, wonder if coach B is liking the way Stu has been slowing things down
February 16th, 2011 at 10:12 PM ^
most likely bc he has 3 fouls though
February 16th, 2011 at 10:12 PM ^
When stu isn't shooting well, his efficiency tanks more than any other player, because he isn't a great playmaker, plus he is always good for one or two defensive lapses ala the last McCamey three.
