Popular Post Uspshoosier Posted February 18, 2023 Popular Post Posted February 18, 2023 Hot take if im IU im not playing TJD at Purdue. IU isn’t winning the conference and that game is a bonus game that isn’t going to hurt your seeding if you get beat. He needs some rest and that is what I would personally do even if he wanted to play realTomCrean, Banksyrules, HoosierDYT and 6 others 9 Quote

Ultimately JHS has a higher NBA ceiling than a player like Romeo Langford did because Langford can't shoot. Langford was a 14th pick. Very few. And Langford is an elite athlete who could get to the rim any time he wanted in college. JHS gets backed up by mediocre big ten defenders. Pros will bet they can teach a Langford to shoot; they know they can’t turn an average athlete into a great one. Props to JHS for never giving up and coming up big at the end. But I would be praying the scouts don’t get this tape if I were him, though. Same with NW. Joe_hoopsier 1 Quote

Games like this and Michigan would have been losses under Whats His Name. Now they're wins. This team makes winning plays at the end and that makes me smile We've had three frustrating games in a row. But I wouldn't call two of three in the last three games awful. With the streak of games being at Michigan, at Northwestern, Illinois, at Michigan State, at Purdue, that would have been a streak of games in the past where we strung together losses. IMO it was a string where I thought we would go 2-3 but knew something like a 1-4 was possible. We're sitting at 2-1 right now. Stromboli, lillurk and NVFalcons1990 3 Quote

He’s not giving up his last game at Purdue, though. They need to find a way to bring his minutes down until the tourney. NVFalcons1990 and Uspshoosier 1 1 Quote

Last game at the end he passed it to the top of the backboard. Look, I don't hate the kid and he certainly has helped us win some games. But he needs a lot of work. Joe_hoopsier 1 Quote

Smooth stroke. Moment got to him. Then Reneau and Geronimo were clowning him on the bench which was an underrated great moment.

RaceToTheTop Posted February 18, 2023 Posted February 18, 2023 Kopp might have only taken six shots, but at least today I thought he moved to his spots on offensive well and pulled the trigger when he got it. Guards missed him a couple of times. LockdownD, NVFalcons1990 and lillurk 3 Quote

But I was referring to the literal doors open behind the basket when the Illini shot wide open airballs in the start of the 2nd half. Quote
