Can I get a couple first half recaps please? 

[JerryYeagley23]

Please. Use this timeout to sub out the Kopp/Stewart lineup for this last defensive stand.

Man, TJD is at the 3-point line and Cockburn is standing inside the FT line. 

If only TJD could take a couple dribbles and pop from 18 feet, he'd be lethal. 

I was just saying that I'd be ok if Trayce just turned and shot it.

Our defense forced them into missing 10-11 straight shots but we couldn't get any separation. They started hitting shots and took the lead. We didn't play great but not terrible either. One of their role players has 9 points.

We defend with our hands too much and got called for a lot of fouls. We weren't aggressive going at the rim and they didn't get called for as many fouls.

So do we start getting the favorable calls in the second? X has been fouled on EVERY screen we have ran! Someone got thrown to the floor by Kofi behind a fast break. Jesus please just call one game evenly!

After the last 1.5 games, it's become very clear this season would have been very different if Rob and Trey had stayed healthy. We're probably fighting for seeding in the 5-6 range instead of being on the bubble.

We’ve shot 2 FT and Illinois has shot 12.  I hope Mike starts complaining.  Illinois fouls with their lower body much like Wisconsin. It’s still a foul,

Wouldn't it be amazing if Parker Stewart hit a couple of three's in the second half!

[IUc2016]

Felt a lot like the first half in Bloomington. We played them tough but couldn't take advantage of their offensive miscues.

Hopefully the second half is entirely different. Go Hoosiers!

Here’s an “if a tree falls in the woods..” question: if PS hits two threes but gives up three easy buckets getting torched on the defensive end - do the threes really matter? Give me Phin’s defense and let PS watch from the pine.

Right. No Galloway for the last 3 losses, all of which were 50/50 games

I understood the foul discrepancy a bit yesterday because we weren't going inside much for a while, but we're outscoring Illinois 20-10 in the paint today and still not getting any calls

We're getting rocked inside. Can't call everything but they could sure call something.
