*Official* 2017-2018 B1G In-Season Thread

Actually impressed hearing Pitino JR talk. Doesn't look as full of shit as his dad.
 
We shot nearly 50% from 3. We didn't need Mathias. I know I read it a lot, but you're really one of the worst posters on the board.
I don’t take pride or keep score on Internet message board reputations. Thanks though.

the defense looked better in the 1st half then it became a shootout in the 2nd.
what I like is that these will be returning and they will add 3 guards to this group.
Bohannon 25 points, 6 assists and 1 steal, 5-7 from 3 and 8-8 from the FTL
Garza 20 points 8 rebounds 1-2 from 3 and 3-3 from the FTL
Cook 19 points 5 Rebounds 2 assists 7-10 from the FTL
Moss 6 point 4-4 from the FTL, 5 Rebounds, 2 assists and 1 block,

now add a solid starter and this team will be very dangerous.

then is Baer moving back to being the 6th man
7 points 1-2 from 3 4-4 from the FTL, 3 Rebound, 2 assists, 1 steak and 1 block, doing what he does best.
even Dailey had 3 assists 1 steal and 1 block. with 1-2 from 3.

next season this team is going to be very fun to watch as they grow as a team and work on defense.

You gave up 90+ to Iowa. You play a foul happy defense. Bad shot selection. Air balls. Same story different year.
Groce's players. No athleticism. Few shooters. This system requires athletic shooters. This is Underwood's first year outside the top 15 in offensive efficiency. I will happily take a bet that by year 3 you will be singing a different tune.

Groce just ran the ball through Brandon Paul and Malcolm Hill. We would be even worse with him.

Defense will foul a lot by nature. I'm more suspect about that.

Air balls? What are you even talking about?

I don't think I'm as optimistic as you, but I am pretty damn optimistic about our future. I certainly hope you are right

Multiple air balls down the stretch. Pathetic.
 
Both of those were reviewed and no calls.
8 of your ft's came in the lady 2 minutes. The other 33 were not.

The two and ones that should've been on the ground accounted for 8 points.

I watched Te'jon get pulled to the ground and then Bohannon hits a 3 because your guys had him on the floor. I watched Frazier get hit twice in the same play, once one the shot, and Bohannon gets a touch call on the other end. I watched Frazier get knocked yup the ground on a layup and then they went to the other end and called a foul (good call) on Finke.

It was egregiously one-sided tonight. Your bigs consistently got away with blocking fouls on screens that were called on the other end.

I am half-tempted to make a video outlining them, but my laptop unfortunately met its demise.
just like Bohannon was constantly being grabbed shoved all night long. yet he still managed to score 25 points with 5-7 from 3. its funny people say he is to slow and unathletic and yet nobody has really stopped and he also got 6 assists tonight,

the key was pounding it inside to Cook and Garza and they recorded 39 points with most of them in close.

Jesus had 0 points a week ago against Minnesota

Also had 3 points 3 assists against Pedo State

Bohannon got so many touch fouls called for him, I'm surprised you used him as an example.

He also had 5 TOV. Looked frazzled until he got repeatedly put on the line. Very similar to the first game in that regard.
 
They exist. Just not on Purdue.

and 25 points the last 2 games and Fran benched in the Minnesota game. Bohannon now has made 93 3's in 32 games vs 89 made 3's in 34 last season.

hmmm you point out his 2 worst games and 1 in which Fran benched for the rest of the 2nd half for shall we say dogging it.
since then he has scored 50 points in 2 games going 12 of 21 from 3 57.1% from 3 .

what touch fouls, he was constantly being mugged with no fouls called. only at the end did they call fouls sending Bohannon to the FT Line.

they even started to intentually foul Cook who went 7-10
 
Iowa had 18 TO's to Illinois 8

Illinois had 8 steals to Iowa's 5, 14-30 from 3 vs Iowa 8-14 from 3
 
Kinda embarrassing your team forgot about their best player in this argument.

I'd take him in a heartbeat, but he wasn't exactly the type of player we were talking about. I.e. lanky wings.
Nah, what's embarrassing is how delusional your fan base has become and how you think athletic lanky wings who can shoot the basketball are going to jump on an offer from Illinois.

Mr All or Nothing, Kipper Nichols. Underwood has sat him because he doesn't play hard so many times. Then he goes off. One of the most frustrating players on the team.
Kipper Nichols? Is that TIC? When you score 31 points against Iowa, it's more like 7 points vs. a capable defense.

Well, when Okoro signs with Illinois maybe you can take that embarrassment and stick it up your a$$.

You Purdue fans have gone off the ledge this year. Anything less than a final 4 will be a failure, and a huge indication of where Painter can take you.
