***OFFICAIL NCAA "THIRD ROUND" GAME THREAD VS COLORADO***

Illinois plan is to pressure Larkin. Right now he is reading that and inviting the double and even the triple. Once he get rid of the ball if we make that good second pass to the open guy Illinois is done. That's there game plan on d. We have had some good looks and then we have had some bad ones. That last play with Reggie was a perfect example. Shane is all over the double but you have to finish once he passes out of it or dribbles out of it.

I would love to see us use Kadji as the screener there instead of Johnson. Reggie's defender is hedging hard on the screen and then staying with Larkin every single time because they know that Reggie with the ball in his hands 20 feet from the hoop is not really any kind of a threat. That last play was a perfect example. Wide open lane and he turns it over. If we use Kadji as a screener there, he can make them pay when they help off him and leave him alone.
 
This high double team should leave jones and brown wide open all night

And they have been wide open, if we make the extra pass. The problem is that the first pass is to whoever the screener is, and if it's Reggie, he's been pretty poor with making a quick, crisp pass to the open man from that position.

Kadji needs to drop both of these FT. I think that's 3 fouls on them already. Keep the pressure on them offensively and play tough D.
