Game Thread: (11/12) Lady Vols. 72 - Gonzaga. 73

[RAVOL]

Same old, same old....

I know it's trying to do to much or getting in a hurry and not thinking. But these teams hitting these 3's at this rate is ridiculous.

Playing much better today, but still struggling to rebound. Tess is shooting great but got 2 straight trash foul calls. Sara struggling to defend. So far seems better though.

 

[Rickster]

Yeah, our subs need to improve. Game time will help even if it hurts. We will need all hands on deck for the start of the SEC.

 

[Majors]

So far we've played 10 players, they've played 8. Both benches with 6 points

 

[RAVOL]

Why didn’t walker pass the ball, she never passes to a finisher running the break.

I know easy 2 on 1

 

[DarkPhoenix]

Those are the plays that start to irritate teammates and that could turn into bad chemistry issues.

She does this every game, I haven’t seen her pass to a cutter once this season, she always forces the shot up herself.

 

[And1]

Another impossible take by Walker.

 

[DarkPhoenix]

I know easy 2 on 1

She does this every game and I’ve noticed it, they need to sit her down when she does that and say pass the ball but nothing happens.

 

[Volfaninfl2]

5 point swing for us, Yes!

 

[glv98]

On a run!

 

[glv98]

If only Jordan H could shoot , and Tamari Key could rebound

 

[Fatoldman]

Actually Franklin has played some of the best defense on team today and has 2 or 3 assists on nice passes.

 

[37620VOL]

Powell taking souls out there!

 

[Rickster]

36-30 feels better

 

[glv98]

As always, our end of quarter play is garbage,

That said, a good half for us. Horston and Jackson playing very well together today.

 

[Volfaninfl2]

TN up 36-30 at the half, we’re fighting.

 

[volnationnj]

Much better defense the second quarter.
Only gave up 6 points.

 

[youcancallmeAl]

Playing better. Lots more energy and toughness I'm seeing.

 

[Rooster1]

Lost the rebounding battle by 1, but only 7 TO’s to Zaga’s 11, awesome effort so far defensively.

 

[LadyVol1908]

I’m seriously puzzled on where our rebounding went. That’s crazy to me.

 

[NoBackBoard]

We are competing so much better than previous games.

 

[LadyVol1908]

Overall pretty decent half, aside from Walker’s non pass, she’s playing pretty well today.

 

[Volfan2012]

Best defense we have played in any half this year. Gonzaga made some very hard shots in that first quarter. If they could keep that up have to give them credit. We have to show that much energy for another 20 minutes I think we win this one. Rebounding just plus one for them and it was mostly in that one possession when they got five shots.

 

[Rixxx]

In 2Q, the three point line was defended very well.

 

[RAVOL]

Well considering in our 6th game this is our 5th top 30 team playing wow what a schedule. This team was not ready for this schedule as a Team. Hopefully they continue to grow and learn to play off one another. I hope Pissot can grow with other parts of the game because we could use her ability to shoot off the bench. In CHRIST Alone
