Official Game Thread: Indiana vs Illinois

[HoosierJimbo89]

The effort is simply not there: disappointing.

The effort is simply not there: disappointing.

First five min of the second half is crucial to how the game usually goes. IU better wake up.

 

[The Vid]

Yeah hate to see that. I like bates but even a middle school player deserves being benched for not stepping over to try to take a charge there.

Maybe his vision of the driver was obscured.

That was pretty bad. It’s an example why Galloway helps winning and Bates does not. He longs for the AAU game.

 

[8Stars5Banners]

We have to have some of the dumbest laziest fans in the nation. Could they at least call out the last 5 seconds of the shot clock? They haven’t done it all year.

Ouch

 

[bsmitty08]

IU Guard play is just brutal today

 

[Courtsensetwo]

Galloway was fouled there

 

[rocketo]

This is just ugly

 

[CradleofBasketball]

Follow your shot bates!

 

[Courtsensetwo]

Even NW fans call out the low shot clock.

As do middle schoolers.

 

[The Vid]

Better get Trayce some touches

 

[CradleofBasketball]

Good lord. Basic bball.

 

[BGunn]

Even NW fans call out the low shot clock.

If our players are so damn dumb they need fans to shout out the shot clock, they don't deserve their candy stripes.

 

[bsmitty08]

We have scored like 5 points in 10 min

 

[8Stars5Banners]

Danger time

 

[BCCHoosier]

I know Gunn has not produced but can he be any worse than Bates? I bet he can take a charge and can't clank wide open threes any worse

 

[HoosierJimbo89]

4 points in first 8 minutes of 2nd half: brutal.

 

[rocketo]

Need our perimeter players to step it up

 

[Courtsensetwo]

If our players are so damn dumb they need fans to shout out the shot clock, they don't deserve their candy stripes.

Players can’t hear that. It is for the fans. Immature fans at that

 

[BGunn]

You are a moron. Every fan base will countdown the clock when it gets low. Not Indiana.

I don't care what fanbases do. My point is a D1 college level player shouldn't need it. Do we need to shout out the screens for them too?

 

[The Vid]

I know Gunn has not produced but can he be any worse than Bates? I bet he can take a charge and can't clank wide open threes any worse

Woody is hanging on to the idea of him turning the corner, but that window may be slowly closing.

 

[kurt cloverdales]

sucks

 

[InvisibleHoosier]

4-22 from your top 3 guards. 🤬

 

[CradleofBasketball]

I know Gunn has not produced but can he be any worse than Bates? I bet he can take a charge and can't clank wide open threes any worse

No, he can't be worse than Bates. Bates is constantly shot-hunting. Situational awareness and court vision isn't there.

 

[Coach Geez]

You are a moron. Every fan base will countdown the clock when it gets low. Not Indiana.

If the players need the fan base to count down the shot clock they got bigger issues. Shut the hell up and go back to the Purdue board. There’s a reason why you haven’t posted here in over a month and we all know why.

 

[The Vid]

No, he can't be worse than Bates. Bates is constantly shot-hunting. Situational awareness and court vision isn't there.

This would be easier to swallow if he did literally anything anywhere else on the court

 

[HoosierJimbo89]

Bates can't hit layups! For F*** sake......

 

[Coach Geez]

Another lazy entitled fan. Let’s meet up? Would love to see you run that mouth in real life. I’d leave you in the Everglades.

Lol

 

[The Vid]

Can you idiots go away for the next 20 minutes. Thanks, everyone

 

[Middawg]

That sequence sums up Bates contributions perfectly.


Pass up open 3 to miss a wide open pull-up that rebounds directly back to him and then proceed to miss a wide open layup. Surprised he didn't get a foul on the layup rebound.

 

[The Vid]

Man, Bates on the struggle bus

 

[VanPastorMan]

This Underwood is very fiery.

 

[CradleofBasketball]

Another lazy entitled fan. Let’s meet up? Would love to see you run that mouth in real life. I’d leave you in the Everglades.

Reported. Clean it up.

 

[Courtsensetwo]

Ok stop this shit now

Death threats? Really? So intellectually and emotionally challenged that this is where you go? Please perma ban this clown.

 

[Courtsensetwo]

I bet Epps wishes he had a handful of tic tacs just then

 

[InvisibleHoosier]

Man, Bates on the struggle bus

Bates is driving that damn bus.

 

[ericrossiu]

Is Tamar Bates on this team next season?

 

[Coach Geez]

Death threats? Really? So intellectually and emotionally challenged that this is where you go? Please perma ban this clown.

He’s fine. He has a keyboard for a reason.

 

[VanPastorMan]

Death threats? Really? So intellectually and emotionally challenged that this is where you go? Please perma ban this clown.

One you can say is he is a dedicated fan. I mean to commit murder is being really committed.

 

[Beorik]

Our effort needs to be sky high to finish this one out with a W.
