I’m not sure when I’ve ever seen an Illini tandem score 30+ in the same game? Maybe Kofi and Ayo did it?

I would think that is a pretty rare feat that hasn't been done since the late 80s or early 90s

Ha, did not see that coming. Well, half of it anyway.

They both scored 30+ because they couldn’t stop those guys at all so they just kept running the same shit over and over. And they just kept scoring. Of course it isn’t sustainable. Matchups will be different. But we don’t need those guys to score 30+ every game to win. We’ve got a whole roster of guys that can put up 10-20+ (and have) on any given night depending on matchups.

As opposed to the old 'well that play worked, no sense in using it again' or the old 'it didn't work but we'll keep running it until we get it right'.

That was just an enjoyable game to watch on both ends of the floor, once the game got past the 5-5 start.

Agree we have more guys who can score this year and can take and make shots at hopefully reasonable level.
Our offense was pretty bad before last night due to Guerrier, Hawkins,Domask, and Harmon not playing consistently at their typical level.
 
Last year they did the same thing on offense which was to ride the hot hand and matchup- but honestly only ever had two guys, and often only one who could reliably score.
Would be great to not wonder where the offense is going to come from when TSJ is not on floor.
We also only had five TOs I think in second half. That is huge if you equate each possession gained or lost with approx 1 point.
We had 9 in first half and were down.

Saw a nice little YouTube thing on TSJ last night. Rolls around campus in a new BMW SUV. Thoughts, Tempo?

Yeah I saw this as well and was going to link it here, asking Tempo’s opinion/approval of that…

Good for him.
Maybe has a lease deal or maybe that is a NIL benefit from that dealer, or he just went and bought it with NIL money.

Up in Champaign at the mall with my daughter and walked past Dray Gibbs Lawhorn. Pretty cool.

Is TSJ going number one overall? An SUV is comparable to a Ferrari now?
