Spoiler
Hey has anyone noticed the distinct lack of that one draymond commercial in the 2nd weekend vs the first weekend? Reminds me of last year's Johnathan majors commercial.
ain't nobody beating UCONN
sorry for the slappies that still have teams alive
9-0 after 4 is on par.
Illinois offense doesn't seem to believe in passing?
UConn +9 with Clingan on the court
-7 with him on the bench
Don’t watch much college basketball but Clingan is UNPLAYABLE, my God
Illinois 6/19 from the rim. The Cling Kong effect.
UCONN's "C" game is good enough for a 5 pt halftime lead
at the half
32.1 possessions
Illinois: 0.72 ppp
UCONN: 0.87 ppp
Feels like Illinois is drawing dead, even though it’s only 5 points.
Illinois needs their stretch 5, Coleman Hawkins, to start drilling some threes to pull Clingan out.
Everyone outside of Clingan on UConn has looked terrible tonight. Not sure how anyone could have watched that first half and thought to themselves this team is unbeatable.
Terrible in the sense they couldn't make any shots.
This is like watching prime Shaq, dominating
Using Klingons seems to be cheating.
Illinois 4 - 31 with Clingan on the floor
Basically only one of Uconn’s starters is playing, they are shooting terribly (39% FGs, 1 - 13 from 3), and are up 16 against a supposedly really good team. So.
UConn is now winning 20-0 combined in the first 4 of each half.
Blow it up early, not fair on Illinois tbh
This seems mildly unfair
lol. Not unbeatable, huh?
Well, that escalated quickly
LOL college basketball. This is more unwatchable than the women's game.
Kinda feel you should win games early if you achieve a 30 - 0 run. Like a milestone satellite. This is domination on an outrageous scale. In an Elite Eight game. Wild stuff.
