@B1G_Fan how many wins did you predict in conference? 13+..?

😂

Lol at comparing your team to a team with Jaden Ivey on it.

Yes, he’d be good enough if you had a Jaden Ivey. But you don’t.

You are full of shit. I’m not combing through this 1,000 page thread to find that post. But you know you said it, and I do as well.

Here you go dipshit. This is you saying it was 13. At the beginning of the year I said 12-13 wins. You are trying to change the narrative, because it's likely we win 12-13 games.

Last time I checked Illinois doesn't have Jaden Ivey either, so I guess they aren't a contender.

Maybe next time just admit you had no idea what you were talking about when you said IU should move XJ off-ball. You would look less foolish.

 

[pig1960]

8th is your floor next year? Haha

You could make another ban bet but it seems like the upside is gone on that proposition. As long as Painter is at Purdue the floor is 5/6. Hold on while I get my sunglasses.

ps- heard Gillis unhappy with his starting role on Top 4 team.😂

Lol you made separate comments saying 15 wins isn’t out of the picture, thus how the range is 13-15.

You must be less confident now that 13 is getting walked back to 12-13. Lol

Last time I checked Illinois had a 5th year Trent Frazier and Curbelo. Thus we don’t have to rely on either one, and can go by committee when necessary.

If you are relying on 30+ minutes of XJ at PG next year you won’t be a contender. Sorry that hurts your feelings.

I never once said IU would win 15 games. Not even close. I had 13 as the max with 12 likely.

Lol Frazier and Curbelo haven’t exactly set the world on fire this year. I would take the XJ/JHS potential over what those two have produced this year.

Im sure you are about to tell us how Illinois will be a contender with Payne as their starting center… LOL

 

[boilerzz]

Ivey not 1st team.

You serious Clark?

 

[B1G_Fan]

You serious Clark?

Name your 1st team.

If taking a player from Purdue, Edey has put up much better numbers.

 

[B-Westy]

Name your 1st team.

Davis, Ivey, Murray, Liddell, Cockburn.

 

[B1G_Fan]

Davis, Murray, Liddell, TJD, Cockburn

Sometime I will go thru the posts and find it, given you didn’t go back and delete it like a weasel.

Frazier and Curbelo haven’t lit the world on fire? Lol Curbelo wasn’t available to play (remember when he was sitting out to transfer?😂) thus Frazier has had to play 30+ minutes at point while being arguably the best perimeter defender in the conference.

Illinois down year is going to be top 5 in the conference. That is if Kofi doesn’t come back yet again, if that’s the case we’d be the favorite lolz

 

[1016CC0503]

Davis, Ivey, Murray, Liddell, Cockburn.

Pretty easy 5 at this point.

 

[1016CC0503]

Yikes…

I hope you spend hours looking for something that never existed.

Curbelo has been poor in every game he’s played except 1. Frazier’s numbers are worse than XJ’s.

With Kofi back, you may be decent. Without him, you will be awful. You would be losing 5 of your top 6 players.

 

[B1G_Fan]

Yikes…

Instead of having you make the case for Ivey over TJD, why don’t you just make the case for Ivey over Edey. Edey has been dominant.

 

[MGC_07]

I’m not sure why Christie would go . Where is he in mocks

I’ve seen him in the late first in a few. He’s been really streaky though.

I do fully expect him back barring other issues. I’m more concerned about the seniors coming back for their COVID year. We really need Bingham back. We are a much worse team with Marble in.

 

[boilerzz]

Davis, Ivey, Murray, Liddell, Cockburn.

Bingo

 

[B-Westy]

Davis, Murray, Liddell, TJD, Cockburn

Homer gonna homer. Ivey is the best guard on a top 5 team in the country averaging 17 a game shooting 50% from 2 & 40% from 3. He’s the most electric basketball player in the country. He’s a first teamer, easy. Sorry TJD.

Curbelo would the best guard on your roster when healthy, it’s unfortunate he hasn’t been available.

Lolz at Xavier Johnson over Frazier. Shit if XJ can’t shoot like you’ve said, he would be playing the undersized 3 like Damonte Williams if he was at Illinois.

We’ll be top 5 in our down years. I’d say bet me but you’ll be long gone by then.

He may be the best guard, but he hasn’t been the best player on his team. Edey has been far more dominant.

TJD has the head to head win going for him 😉.

 

[boilerzz]

Instead of having you make the case for Ivey over TJD, why don’t you just make the case for Ivey over Edey. Edey has been dominant.

But since you asked, I think they are pretty even statistically. Ivey is averaging 17 pts, 5 rebounds, 3 assists and a steal while shooting 44% from three. Edey is averaging 15 pts, 7.5 rebounds, 1 assist and a block.

And given they are pretty even, the hype surrounding Ivey will give him the nod (plus things like a last second 3 to beat a ranked OSU).

Lol so Curbelo still isn’t healthy?

I said XJ has put up better numbers. Frazier is more of a wing than a PG, so they really aren’t comparable head to head.

Can’t wait to pick your avatar in a month or so.

Why are you quoting season long statistics when the All Big Ten team is based on what you do in conference? Edey scores 66% of the shots he takes. Ivey only 43%.

That doesn’t even take into account how poor Ivey is defensively.

Hey man, we actually have a win against him. You guys have a bleeding anooose

He is healthy-ish, still getting back into game shape after COViD.

Frazier is a wing..? Lol he’s a pure combo guard that can play either one or two depending on personnel. Sorry your boy just isn’t as good as him.

Not really worried about our bet, if I lose it will be because Kofi missed 5 games. We’d be ranked in the same range as Purdue right now if he hadn’t. And we’ll be top 15 next week even if we lose versus Indiana this weekend.

What will the next Curbelo excuse be?

Frazier is more of a 2 than a 1.

The bet was top 10 with Kofi. Last time I checked, a couple of your losses came with Kofi. Including to a very poor Cincy team.

You have a weird definition of excuse. You think he’s been sitting out for fun?

A 1-2 is a combo guard, not a wing. And Frazier is better than XJ at either point or shooting guard so it’s irrelevant.

Like I said I’m not worried about our bet. Illinois has 3 losses while healthy, 2 of them to top 10 teams that came down to the last possessions. Our Cincinnati loss was game 1 with our entire roster, if you are hanging your hat on that loss lol

News to me - All Big Ten is based on Big Ten only. You serious Clark?

He’s played in 7 games this year. Only 1 good game.

2s and 3s are wings. His primary position is on the wing. He’s not a better PG than XJ.

What are your best wins?

Frazier has been playing point all season. Don’t you remember our starting point has only played 7 games?

Let’s see we have 2 wins over the #10 and #11 ranked teams in the last 2 weeks.

You don’t think Illinois would be ranked in the top 10 if we had Kofi for Marquette and Maryland? Both games we’d likely win…

I’d guess we’d be in the #3-7 range similar to Purdue’s range currently.

 

[pig1960]

Going out on a limb here but gonna put Trevion Williams as 6th man of the year. Narrowly edging Kristy Ann Lander.

As I pointed out already, XJ has better numbers than Frazier.

Weren’t you recently saying that MSU and Wisconsin were overrated? Now those are wins over the “#10 and #11 ranked teams”.

Why would I assume you win those games when you lost to Cincy with your full roster.

 

[B1G_Fan]

You would be better off comparing Lander to Brandon Newman.

 

[boiler1987]

You would be better off comparing Lander to Brandon Newman.

Newman has at least proven he can play at this level.
