sircaffey Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 If Randle could hit FT, he would be a seriously good player. That and staying healthy. That's one guy I would have loved to see at full strength throughout his career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 QUOTE(whitesoxfan99 @ Jan 13, 2008 -> 05:16 PM) Gordon whines more than Pruitt when a call goes against him. Didn't think that was possible. Wait til Richmond gets to Illinois. No joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thedoctor Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 (edited) QUOTE(hitlesswonder @ Jan 13, 2008 -> 11:13 PM) But Illinois is just physically outclassed and they are starting to look tired (Brock especially). way to state the obvious. we've only been talking about this from the preseason up until now. remember, illinois did lose at home to tennessee state. i don't think anyone was making the argument they were talented. my question would be why a team that is so outclassed isn't getting tihskicked by a team that's won 26 straight at home. to me, that would be a more salient observation and one that actually took some thought, not just regurgitating something you read on a message board.

No one should be questioning that Illinois is playing well. They certainly are. Even if Indiana has missed a bunch of open looks, can't take away Illinois' effort.

I didn't think I was regugitating anything. So about another topic. McCamey has shown some good court vision and has looked faster on defense than in previous games. In the 2nd half he's seemed reticent to control the ball as much as he did in the first half. He's picking up his dribble quickly. I don't know if that's being tired or just Basset's defense. Either way it was a good game for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
