CTrojan88 Posted February 3, 2021 Report Share Posted February 3, 2021 Lander is becoming a difference maker...game is slowing down, playing downhill on offense and effort/positioning are getting better on defense...just needs to keep playing more and more minutes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a high ball screen action between and then play ball. The play broke down a tad and TJD made a great shot. Yeah I get that...just questioning who was being involved in the screen and roll. Not sure why it was Race who had a wing who could easily make that switch and blow it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's still going to make mistakes. Probably will make 2 in the 2nd half where we cuss him....but right now he should be scoring 40 vs whomever instead he's playing great hoops at the Big 10 level.

Reacher Posted February 3, 2021 Report Share Posted February 3, 2021 My first half MVP is Race. He carried us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgambill Posted February 3, 2021 Report Share Posted February 3, 2021 Lander getting a lot of praise deservedly...just hope he stays under control in the second half. Still going to need Al and Rob in this second half....don’t sulk upper class men...come back and give us something in the second half and we win.

IUFLA Posted February 3, 2021 Report Share Posted February 3, 2021 Once Khristian gets some confidence going to the hoop, he'll be ultra dangerous. He's got great court vision. Keeps his head up. The bigs will get some easy ones once their guy has to come off and help. I think our upper classmen better sit up and take notice... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tdhoosier Posted February 3, 2021 Report Share Posted February 3, 2021 All the other Freshmen have had their break out game. It’s time for Lander. Let’s keep it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So many things from touch pass to TJD to 2 I believe rebounds and of course his points. Lander. Shoot even Galloway putting Ayo's head on a swivel. Tough 20 minutes coming. Just have to avoid those 8-0 runs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just seemed a weird point to criticize. If that is all we have to complain about tomorrow I will be a happy Hoosier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it was a change or by Illinois or even accidental by Illinois on that a wing ended up on him but the play was designed was in the previous timeout? Who knows.

He’s got the ball on a string where he totally controls it both on the dribble and the pass. And he’s initiating the offense with playmaking in mind. I like Rob but I call him “check down Rob” at times because he is hesitant to create downhill. So he will drop off another safe pass out at the arc that the defense literally gives to him. You can’t win at a high level that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
