[QUOTE="Hey Adrien!, post: 3828941, member: 5787"]
Just finished watching the 2nd half. One of the best games I've watched this year. Their hatred and rivalry got me to watch the game, but this was A+ exciting basketball for the full 40 minutes.

Nowadays, it's rare to see two true, elite bigs battle it out and Kofi vs Garza was a ton of fun to watch. They fight so hard, but you can tell they respect each other so much. Another excellent game from Ayo Dosunmu, one of the elite bucket-getters in the country and the #1 reason Illini fans should have hope in the tournament.

The player who surprised/impressed me the most was Illinois freshman point guard Andre Curbelo. Silky smooth passer like Steve Nash, elite dribbler and ability to get to the basket like Kyrie and a tenaciousness and relentless energy like Kemba. He's a valuable player now, but will get the keys to the offense in 21-22. Played last year at Long Island Lutheran with OSU's Zed Key and this year they graduate two of St. John's '21 commits (wing Rafael Pinzon and power forward Drissa Traore).
