*****Iowa vs Illinois Game Thread*****

[BigDogHawkFan]

Hawkins is pretty good. Big, can drive or shoot the 3. Have we had someone like that in recent memory

 

[hawkirugged17]

Dix again from mid range.

 

[Franisdaman]

BIG DIX shot

23-22 game

 

[Chishawk1425]

Saw that illegal screen call coming. Perkins the reason.

 

[Franisdaman]

Ladji getting some good minutes again

and then gets called for an illegal screen

 

[DirtyJohns97]

Swa that moving screen coming a mile away

 

[hawkirugged17]

Iowa's first foul is about half way through 1st half.

 

[NI hawk]

Dix again from mid range.

Dix is good.

 

[NI hawk]

Tony dialed in.

 

[Chishawk1425]

Freeman doubled kicks to Perkins for 3!!!!!!

 

[hawkirugged17]

Good hands by Perk to knock the ball out.

Then a 3 from Tony on a pass out by Freeman.

 

[Franisdaman]

Tony for 333333

iowa leads 25-23

Big O with the Big Assist

 

[Hawkman34]

I have said it before, I want so badly to like them Dembele, but just not sure what he brings the table. Maybe a little bit of defense?

 

[NevadaHawk]

Perk for 3

 

[drew_hawk]

Perkins looking very confident with the jumper lately, very good sign.

 

[Bulldogs1974]

Not good when the higher rated team has the players going to the floor and not us

 

[Chishawk1425]

We get a stop and can't rebound, again....Sigh

 

[Chishawk1425]

**** Illinois. I can't wait to get them at home.

 

[hawkirugged17]

Illini run ... they lead 30-25 ... Iowa timeout ...

 

[Franisdaman]

Illini on a 7-0 run

they now lead 30-25

Time OUT IOWA

8:08 to go

 

[Carolina.Hawk]

Pat ugh.

 

[drew_hawk]

We get a stop and can't rebound, again....Sigh

We can't seem to control any rebounds. Very weak.

 

[DirtyJohns97]

Effort

 

[SocraticIshmael]

The nepotism is inexcusable. Pat with the weak drive, weaker recovery to cost us a bucket, then wandering around doing nothing on another loose ball on the offensive end.

Pathetic.

 

[BigDogHawkFan]

Young Sandfort is lost on defense

 

[drew_hawk]

Pat ugh.

Fran's insistence on giving him too many minutes will likely sink our chances today.

 

[BlIIlken2]

The Northwestern application rejects cam is always fun.

Also Brad should be selling extended car warranties at a used lot in Naperville.

 

[HawkeyeHitman]

It’s hard to win when you’re playing 4 on 5 when Patrick is playing.

 

[NevadaHawk]

We have to score on this possession.

 

[NI hawk]

Pat ugh.

Where was he going on that play

 

[Hawkfan_08]

We can't seem to control any rebounds. Very weak.

Or box out. It's a lost art.

 

[DirtyJohns97]

Sidebar, is Orange Krush the most annoying fanbase in all sports?

 

[Barnbomber]

Hawkins is pretty good. Big, can drive or shoot the 3. Have we had someone like that in recent memory

Dumbest player in the league. Just keep Shannon in check.

To be fair... 50% of our school is full of Illinois rejects, haha.

 

[Bulldogs1974]

Effort

No kidding dembele is a great defender for a freshman. Perkins hung him out to dry on the pick and roll. As Hummel said.

 

[BigDogHawkFan]

How can someone that tall not get a rebound?

 

[Bulldogs1974]

I don’t trust we can keep this offense up.

 

[Carolina.Hawk]

How can someone that tall not get a rebound?

Lack of effort and toughness

 

[Franisdaman]

Tony layup

30-27 game

Big Ben with a Big Assist

 

[DirtyJohns97]

Hawkins is pretty good. Big, can drive or shoot the 3. Have we had someone like that in recent memory

Keegan and Aaron White?
