BTT vs ILL
- Thread starter bdgan
- Start date
Clary with some great drives to the basket.. not forcing shots and having good possessions almost every time down. PSU is really comfortable vs this Illinois team for some reason. Illinois is really talented though. They can make a big run at any time. Excellent start and we look extremely composed.
Going to be tough to win if we keep giving them two or more shots every time down the floor. Illinois is not shooting well, but they’re getting multiple attempts.
Why is that Illinois' ball? The guy slips and falls and throws it out of bounds with no one else touching it.
Lundy was fouled on the drive possession before. Then the flop. Shrews is going to lose his mind.
Then on the other end the defender hooked Pickett’s arm and banged his chest against him with no call, then they bump again, the defender flops and they call an offensive foul against Pickett. If we can’t stop the offensive rebounds and the scoring from the paint, we have little chance of winning.
I’ve seen a lot of bad calls this year, but nothing compared to the out of bounds call. They said it went off a Penn State player’s fingertip and there wasn’t a PSU player’s hand even in the air. No excuse for that call.
It wasn't a bad half at all...would have been nice to have a bigger lead but we knew Illinois would make a run
Refs or not--we aren't playing well so far in the second half nor the last 5 minutes of the first half. Gotta shoot better regardless of the officiating.
They're winning now--relax. It's not going to be easy--Illinois is good. There's no conspiracy. Enjoy a good game.
Just because we took the lead doesn’t mean we didn’t just temporary overcome an egregious set of terrible calls that put several players on the bench and changed our rotations.
That happens when you get good shots. The one play where Pickett got deep and kicked it out to Funk was a perfect example. Can't expect to shoot as well on step back 3s.
