Loaded Chicken Sandwich Posted October 9, 2019 Posted October 9, 2019 So you're saying their not a lock to make the tourney.You're not really going out on a limb with that. I'm going a little farther out on a limb; I'm saying that Illinois' 12-21 team from last year does not have three of the top 25 returning players in the conference. Ain't no way in the world that Trent Frazier is a top 25 player in the conference; if you'd rather have him on a roster than Phinisee you're crazy. Frazier is an undersized two guard who does not defend much. He is not an efficient offensive player either. Illinois has a nice enough trio of guards; Ayo is a big talent. But their front line, save for Georghi B and a 50-ish ranked raw freshman, is utter crap. As in, Kipper Nichols and a 300+ ranked freshman are their backups at the 4 and 5 spot. If Illinois gets to .500 overall that's a major improvement for them; that's about where I would expect them to end up. Well if you want to compare Phinisee and Frazier-Phinisee: 27.6 minutes, 6.8 points, 2.9 assists, 3.3 rebounds, 1.1 steals, 1.3 turnovers, 36.1% FG, 39.5% 2FG, 31% 3FG, 66% FT, 10.9 PER, 16.5% usage, 1.8 WS. -Frazier: 30.5 minutes, 13.7 points, 2.6 assists, 2.3 rebounds, 1.4 steals, 2.0 turnovers, 41.1% FG, 41.7% 2FG, 40.6% 3FG, 75.9% FT, 15.7 PER, 23.4% usage, 2.4 WS.Those are honestly about the stats we could hope for from Phinisee in his Sophomore season as Frazier did in his Sophomore year. And when it came to B1G play, Illinois only lost 1 game less and beat MSU and Maryland. Now we were definitely the better team last year but we still lost Romeo and Juwan. And for the media, that’s massive for a team that already struggled. And the media loves great guards and Ayo is one of the best in the B1G. If you believe Indiana can be good, gottabe able to believe Illinois could be good. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app Quote

Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app I believe that both Indiana and Illinois can be about 4 wins better this year. That’d put IU at 23-12 and Illinois at 16-17. Quote

Geez I hope not. ;) Phinisee is better with the ball. But we can only hope he averages 13 a game and improves his 3pt and FT shooting by 10%. That’d be a huge help.

Geez I hope not. ;) And that ratio is better but you can also look at it that Fraziers TO% was 14% and Phinisees was 14.5%. But Phinisee is a better passer and a more willing passer. But that also had to do with the roles of each player. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app WayneFleekHoosier 1 Quote

Well that escalated quickly, You think Green starts, but won't be among the top 5 scorers?

yogisballin Posted October 30, 2019 Posted October 30, 2019 Before I say what I’m getting ready to say, I hope like hell I’m wrong. That being said, Teams will pack the lane against us this season and we will have to rely too much on our defense to win games. I just do not see anyway that we finish better than 9th-10th in the league. I really hate that I spent $10 for that mess, to watch the Gannon game. Yes I’m well aware that we did not have Al and Green and RP hasn’t practiced in a month. But, I had to turn it off with 3 minutes to go in the first half. Too brutal for me to watch. As bad as I hate to say it but I’m not pumped about the season, at all.Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners Ohreally 1 Quote
