Holy freaking crap - is JaJuan Johnson allowed to screen like he's an offensive lineman? He just ran McCamey out of the play!

There's ONE for my pick to click! WOO HOO TRENT!

Davis looks GREAT on the glass so far - lots of energy.

It's still early, but I love what I see so far from Davis today. More energy than we've seen from him in quite some time.

Hes really been at it on the boards and on the Defensive end so far today, very impressed. Lets hope he and Keller can keep it up!

I think MD got the message that he will have to rebound to stay on the floor.

What a perfect unselfish play by Demetri after he came down a little out of control.
Very good to see Trent hitting finally too. Lets keep up this intensity boys.

Speaking of Brock, it sure looked like he was hammered on that attempted putback from the Frazier airball.

Brock can be so frustrating at times. On O sometiems he just looks like a freshman. That little bunny on the air ball???

I wish Weber wouldn't yell at his players when they go up for a shot. Even if the shot is ill-advised.

He played pretty good D so far, and scoring right now isnt a problem.
We need to figure out how to stop J Johnson right now.

Feb 8 2009, 12:25 PM
Jordan, Frazier, Keller, Tisdale, and I believe Brock? That's an interesting lineup...

Illini mixing and matching great play with incompetance.
Awful TOs by Frazier, McCamey, and Keller.
Missed layups by Keller and Brock.

If Brock would have stuck his ass on Johnson, no way Johnson can jump over him.
Very disapointing game by Brock to this point.

Do are guys try to not rebound? PATHETIC!
Then a pathetic TO by Frazier.
We are really playing careless and sloppy.

I dont think i've ever seen a ball roll all the way down the court and out of bounds without anyone touching it, lol

Mike Davis is rebounding well. But what's with our players getting rejected by the rim?

Ugh Chet had Tisdale wide open at the top of the key on that. He just had to drop off the ball.

This game is a comedy of errors.
Davis missing a dunk and the putback.
Frazier has been awful offensively all game aside from making 1 3-ball.
We should be up 16 right now.
