At Illinois

[Spartanmack]

Whoa, joining late and seeing we have a 1st half lead on the road. Prob missed best 10 mins of Spartan hoops in a month - but the silver lining is I dodged 10 mins of Dan Dakich.

It's actually on the tv right in front of me right now, so I can't avoid watching it.

Illinois played completely retarded basketball, and looks afraid to play offense or get in the paint.

 

[Michchamp]

oh, they switched to rockets-celtics and everyone seems more interested in watching that, so I guess I won't get to see how this ends

 

[Spartanmack]

Watts tearing it up with half our points so far.

Lol.
Simpson grabs a jersey he get a technical. Spartan player grabs a jersey he gets free throws lol.. Illinois is getting run out of its own building. What a no show by them. Getting out worked and out hustled.

That?s the only kind of basketball I?ve seen Illinois play this year. How they are near the top of the conference and we?ve lost to all these shit teams - it?s been a weird season so far.

He grabbed the jersey bc the guy threw him to the ground - it was a reaction to being dumped not an intentional grab. That?s why it was called that away after they reviewed it.

He was hardly bumped at all. Maybe over the back. Barely. But not worth a grab. Should been offsetting fouls at the least. Even if the one players was a second early. No reason to grab a jersey even if your bumped. Msu has had zero issues with Illinois in both games they have played them. They own this team.

He wasn?t bumped at all, he was forcibly pulled down and grabbing the jersey was a natural reaction. Refs got that one 100% correct.

Illinois is a beneficiary of the unbalanced schedule - played all the worst teams, some of them twice. Have lost every game against other top B1G teams except Rutgers. Rest of sched looks tougher but not all that bad - RU, PSU and Iowa and 4 cupcakes.

Hard to believe we're up 16 with as bad as Winston has played.

Oh, and Gabe Brown is quickly becoming the most frustrating player on this team. Wish he'd stop trying to dunk his way onto sportscenter and just finish clean.

 

[Spartanmack]

47% FTs. Thankfully the game isn’t close.

You just said the MSU player was bumped . The Illinois guy was behind him and he bumped him. He never grabbed him at all. The MSU player grabbed the Illinois players jersey. He had a fist full of it. We must be talking about different plays.

Natural Reaction...Jeezz wish the refs had done that with Simpson. Because Simpson was Hosed on his grab.

Msu is 7-12 from three. Watts has 17 pts. Working and a career high with every point.

 

[SpartyNash]

Going into this game I had a strange gut feeling we were going to blow them out. Just an up/down theory, coming off a bad loss I figured backs to the wall we?d play really well without any real Xs and Os justification.

Why couldn?t Watts step up like this against uofm, IU or Wisconsin?

I still think Gabe has potential. I agree though, he does need to realize dunks are harder to come by than they were in high school.

Reread my post. It says ?dumped? with a ?d? not a ?b?

He grabbed Bingham and yanked him down and stepped around him. There is only one play where a jersey was grabbed. They showed it at least 5 times.

I never saw the Simpson play.

 

[biggunsbob]

Where has Watts been all Season is what MSU fans want to know ? Get him the Ball?

Hey I noticed MSU roster has 18 players on it. I am assuming some of those are just student managers or something Like that.

He is a freshman.

Now the FTs are hurting. Spoke too soon.
