******Iowa @ Illinois Game Thread******

You can check my post history I never bitch about officials.. are they ****ing incapable of calling a travel on Cockburn!?
omfg!!, he got away with a ton of effing steps down low on that play where 4 Hawks were bracketing him under his own hoop, but refs let him throw his body back a few times - with NO dribbles! - to get the ball up and surprised they didn't call a foul on the Hawks in that sequence!

Connor back to being Connor, the shooting spell has worn off....

possibly...but at 1 missed shot in each of last two games, he is due to hit his next one.

The development of Perkins recently is more important, but CMAC hitting 33 percent of his 3's going forward is important too

Sandfort with quick release and pure shot....nice to have him as 9th guy off the bench.
 
Terrible finish to the half. JBo has to make 3s in this game to get playing time. He's a defensive liability.
That was the JBO trade off in a nut shell.

When he makes the basket its great, Iowa can get back and play ok defense.

Miss and he gets taken to the hole in transition.

If Toussaint misses he still gets back and stops the drive.
 
Rebraca is pretty close to getting a lot of blocks, but just a step slow and a couple inches too short. He does put out maximum effort on defense though. Solid player, hope he develops a better low post game next season.
