I don't even know why we as fans care anymore. 

Did you really just write that? ... If you don't care, nobody is making you watch. Or post here.

The bad news for Illinois is that they’ll hit the tourney where a ref calls Kofi for his fouls and travels and they’ll get beat easily. 

Yep Big Ten refs aren’t doing teams any favors

Does Cockburn still have just 1 foul? IU doesn’t deserve to win this game, but that’s an absolute joke.

TJD is getting worked by Cockburn. TJD is good, but it's nights like these that prove that he'd struggle in the NBA. Without a jumpshot, he'd have to bang down there every night and he simply struggles with size

He’s got very little future in the NBA.

Still just absolutely immune to momentum. Which makes this 5 game stretch really scary.

Our shoulders have been down this entire half. WTH!!!!

I didn't say I didn't care. I asked why we do.

Fixed. He'll be overseas.

Kofi will not be an NBA player either. He is a poor man's clint capela. He won't get away with all of the elbows and pushing in the NBA

The Kopp and Parker pairing isn't the reason for the loss of lead, but I still don't think that's an optimal lineup. They were out there for a long time to start this half

 

They're supposed to bring scoring and have what? 12 points between them?  Couple that with negligible contributions from the freshman class and it's a wonder we're as good as we are.

[LamarCheeks 22,163]

I thought one of the points of emphasis on TJD coming back was developing a mid-range jumper? Other than a FT, I don't think he's made more than a couple beyond 10 feet all season.

I'm so glad to never see Frazier again after this season

Johnson’s held his own.

I said last year that Cockburn looked a lot more like an NBA player than TJD. A year later and nothing has changed.

He'd struggle against the big dudes.. but then again, who doesn't struggle against Embiid and Jokic and the like. He'd also be playing against backups and never a focal point. He'd be setting screens. 

Most definitely, but in my novice view of the NBA, there are plenty of guys that you could find to fill that role in the NBA that could provide more shooting and rebounding than TJD would provide as a rotational player in the NBA. Again I don't watch the NBA, so maybe I'm wrong. I'd take your more educated word for it if I'm off base, but with him not being able to shoot and being undersized for his role, I'm not convinced NBA teams would be eyeing him for that type of role

You've been here long enough that you can't pull that **** and expect us to believe it.

[Jeff Flabjohns 2,788]

Trent Frazier is a baller, today he’s hit shots. It happens. They’re damn good, and we’re also solid and no pushover. 
 

I like where things are generally headed

He’ll struggle, but probably stick around as a backup for a bit.
