Game 9 - December 7th - Northern Illinois

[CyCarp]

NIU is absolutely awful. This might be the worst team we play all year.

Wow, you weren't kidding...

[orangetennis]

Panthers look best when the opponent misses all their shots.

[sivert]

Definitely need to leave the volleyball game on the big screen once basketball is done.

[sivert]

Leon not out for 2nd half?

[sivert]

Never mind I remember the T.

Even without Bond...up 40 in 2nd half and still no Wes. I think that puts to rest the idea of him getting meaningful minutes due to the RJ injury

NIU was bad. Schwiger looked great today. Any word on why Leon didn't come back out for the 2nd half. No apparent injury that i could see - played well in the first half and played a ton of minutes. picked up a technicaly after hitting a jumper, defended and rebounded well.

Maybe Leon got benched for the T he got for taunting??

[BCPanther]

I think Bond and Pock are sick.

Neither one on the bench and Bish kept running back and forth between the bench and locker room. I'll bet they were getting fluids by IV.

If you're going to pass sickness around, now's the time.

Look, I get NIU isn't that good, but Bradley only beat that team by 16. That was an absolute throttling, and shows what this team can do when they're firing on all cylinders. Even more impressive they held ground/extended the lead with a walk on or multiple walk ons on the floor.

Valpo beat that team by 5.

1.4 points per possession tonight. Absurd.

We were up 40 when Charlie first saw the floor with 16 minutes to go. WE EXTENDED THE LEAD FROM THERE.

[CyCarp]

I *think* before tonight we were #13 in the country in FG% at 50.7%, and we shot 61% tonight. We've been very efficient.

Leon said after the game he has a slight concussion. Took an elbow to the head in the first half and doesn't remember mouthing off to the official.

Damn....

When is our next game? I hope he gets enough time in between for his noggin to heal up.
