Game 20: Illinois at Michigan Open Thread

Less so than Baylor/Illinois, but after tonight I see Nembhard and Suggs just killlllling us off the bounce in that game

Seriously?

Yeah. As I recall, it was a beat-down loss against Illinois to end the regular season that helped motivate our 1989 champs. You take the positive where you can find it.

nembhard is a bad athlete, suggs maybe

Agreed, I wasn’t saying that. Just pointing out the contact by Kofi is pretty one-sided. You really need a stretch big guy against Kofi on offense, and then double/pinch down on defense.

This is a clear deep play by the real coach Martelli. He learned from the Jameer Nelson team that you need a key loss before tournament play. This will payoff in March, thank me later.

This is the worst game of the year for Franz. All Michigan rim baskets are rolling out, consistently.

I don’t understand that call. What’s the explanation?

Whatever - nothing else has gone right, might as well get some bad calls too.

Pretty sure they said he wrapped him up.

It did look like a Flagrant 1, actually. It wasn’t a basketball play.

If Illinois fans say it’s a flagrant, it’s a flagrant
