Boys off to a sluggish first half....dream over?

No energy in the building due to a weird start time. They need to wake up in the second half. Green Bay is awful.

If Richard were still in charge I'd be worried....I think Ben will get the boys going!

[Hornets]

Excellent second half so far and the boys are up 9!

[Hoop Dreams]

We are lucky to have Jamison Battle.

I always find it comical when they talk about all the minutes they play, like it's hard. They get four, very long media timeouts each half, plus all the other timeouts. They get plenty of rest without actually having to come out of the game.

Ben has now won 10 out of his first 11....well done!

SKI U MAH!!

[SKOLMN]

Taison Chatman and Nolan Winter are at the game today. Doogie says we're in a good place for both.

Getting both would be a hell of a haul for Johnson and might be the beginning of locking down the borders

I have no concerns about minutes or no bench from a conditining standpoint.
Injuries or foul trouble? Absolutely a concern for a complete derailment.

Note: The Illinois men's basketball team canceled its game against Florida A&M on Wednesday due to "positive COVID-19 results within the Illini program," they tweeted Monday. That development doesn't bode well for #Gophers vs. Illinois game at Williams Arena on Jan. 2.

@JonRothstein
Tonight's game between Minnesota and Alcorn State has been canceled due to issues related to COVID-19 within Alcorn State's program, per release.

[feekdogg]

Alcorn State is horseshit anyway. Beating them would have been of no help for a postseason tourney.

For sure. Still would have liked to play the game so the Gophers can shake off some rust before Big Ten play begins again on Sunday.

@GopherMBB
Our game against Illinois originally scheduled for Sunday, Jan. 2 at 5 PM, has now been postponed to Jan. 4 at 6 PM due to COVID-19 health and safety protocols within the Illinois program. 

[Slap Shot]

Have any local club games been cancelled/suspended because they fucked it up? Seems like every other place needs to get their shit together.

[jffl_commish]

How much damage will the pornstar do against the Gophers tonight?

[jffl_commish]

Kofi is a very large human being.

[feekdogg]

Not a great start. Illini way too physical early.

[jffl_commish]

This appears to be the back to reality game.

[Hoop Dreams]

The Gophers just don't have the size to match-up with big teams. Still can't believe they beat Michigan.

[ForCaleb]

Cockborn is on another level.

No flow, the half court offense looks awful. Seemed like Johnson wanted them to play uptempo and Illini were effective getting back on defense.

[jffl_commish]

Why are they pronouncing Cock burn as Co burn?

[Sid Hartman]

This is an ass kicking

“This was an outlier, Sunday will be different.”

Ben Johnson on the #Gophers performance tonight.

[Hoop Dreams]

The Gophers rank dead last in the country for bench minutes.

[RubeTube]

What up dudes.

[RubeTube]

Playing them tight.

Curry giving some presence inside.

[ForCaleb]

Checking in

[Hornets]

Rodents hangin in there!

[RubeTube]

She's falling apart.

Flagrant there was rough.

Can't complain with the way they are competing.
