It is truly amazing that Illinois got this far without a good point guard. They have good forwards, centers, and shooting guards, but the kid who played PG wasn't very good all year. The strength of the rest of the team masked the deficiencies at PG all year.
I hope Purdue gets the chance to go up against UCONN; Eady and Clingan would be a great matchup!!!

I think Clingan is much more athletic than Edey. But Edey appears to be much stronger and used to playing BIG muscle ball. So it should be a really interesting matchup.

A lot of Edey’s effectiveness is determined by officiating and how many fouls they call on the people defending him.

Edey seemed to be getting away with a lot of high elbows against Gonzaga.

I thought Edey walked a lot in the game today. But nobody gets called for walking these days. You have to take three steps after a Euro step to get called for walking. Plus most of these guys turn the ball over every time they dribble.
