February General CBB Discussion Thread

I realized that too, but the defense of Duke after the UConn criticism earlier was funny. Not that I haven’t had any either, in fairness.

MBB: UNC 71, Duke 68 (February 7, 2026) Postgame Thread

It’s not unfair to ask why Scheyer’s teams blow big leads (in what appears to be) higher frequency than his predecessor’s teams. Random chance? Is it because Scheyer’s teams tend to score in bunches followed by big lulls? Is it lack of composure under game pressure? Scheyer is a good coach, but...

Curious, would you root for Illinois to bolster our earlier win or MSU to knock Illinois down the 1 seed race?

Illinois win has already aged well enough, an L would probably be better here cuz now they're creeping up to the 1 line if they add a road win at MSU to their resume

The team you root for has won 2 championships in the last 36 months and is currently a # 1 seed, yet you choose to constantly complain and nitpick. Couldn’t imagine being this grumpy.

Some people just can’t handle warranted criticism. I guarantee you Hurley lit these guys up last night.

I bet you have a nice collection of participation trophies at home. Good for you!!
 
Calling a timeout after a player shoots one FT but before the second FT should not be allowed.

No matter, Illinois 's Jake Davis knocks down both with only 1 second left to tie the game. I would love to have that clutch FT shooting on UConn even though they have made a lot, but have also missed a lot in the clutch

Illinois big man with the hardware on his face swatted a shot out of bounds, beyond a wide open Illini player...And then the inbound play MSU hits a big shot.

I seem to recall Emeka having the awareness to block a shot to his teammate rather than risk it going out of bounds like that. Not saying he only did that, but yeah, he would've swatted it to his teammate in that situation.
 
Who is Jake Davis? Big rebound and FT to send Illinois to OT. Illinois and Duke losses helps UConn’s cause
