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

Everyone that plays basketball can be posted up, something you can't understand.
C'mon man, you know the shorties get posted up more than most. Be real.

I think the most depressing part about McCaffery coached teams is that no matter who the players are he will not change his approach to games. Because of that Iowa is never going to by truly competitive over a season with McCaffery. It has to be about his ego, at least only thing I can figure out. Hard to get excited about IMBB when there is no hope for change. JMO
 
If Illinois keeps missing a fair few shots, the game could be there for the taking.


Here's hoping someone left a door open there somewhere.
 
Hawk ball already said it and I have said it for the last few games but I just dont understand why you continue to give Dembele the most post minutes. Braun and Mulvey are clearly better in every way except three point shooting. When illinois started out super hot at the beginning they were targeting Dembele on almost every play either in pick and role or isolation. His foot speed and decision making is just too slow. I just dont get it. Maybe I'm wrong but it just seems obvious at this point. I will be curious if Fran gives Braun a majority of the minutes the second half. If we are serious about winning this game it has to happen.
 
I like me some Robbie Hummel, but he can say some of the stupidest stuff sometimes.

He says it was likely the right call, but shouldn't have made it because its the first he seen it called all year. (re: the cylinder call on the one that Dix was initially whistled for catching the ILL kid on the chops with his swinging elbow)
