Game Thread: (7/9) Lady Vols 63 - (3/3) Stanford 74

[VolBall09]

Well three threes for them not good they haven't been doing that well from the three started out very well today.

Unfortunately most of the were wide open and unguarded. We have got to get matched up better in transition. Our forwards are not used to having to be matched up on the three point line in transition.

 

[RAVOL]

Lost 3 point shooters cost us there. Tighten up.

 

[therealitytheory]

dumb..dumb foul

 

[casetopia]

we make too many bad passes.

 

[VolBall09]

Debbie Antonelli just said watch out for Westbrook for #1 pick in the draft. Killl meeee

What is she smoking? Send me some Deb

 

[ttharp]

Move your feet, Tamari!

 

[SGMVols]

For as great as we supposedly are on defense, we’ve been terrible in transition. We just haven’t played anyone good enough to take advantage of that until tonight.

 

[casetopia]

big game and key disappears.

 

[VolBall09]

Not good. Not good.

only benefit is Brink is also making stupid plays

 

[turbovol]

Yikes: 5 turnovers, 0 assists and 25 percent shooting in the first quarter.

Those numbers better go down, up and up, respectively, starting now....

I love me some 3 point buckets from Sara Puckett ...

Sarah Puckett doesn’t.

 

[therealitytheory]

Get Darby out of there.

 

[Real Info]

Darby is killing us defensively. This experience needs to end. Great kid but no way we can be elite with her playing major minutes.

 

[LadyViking/Vol]

Really glad Stanford is missing quite a few threes .. we need to show more ball movement and patience on the offensive end..

 

[ttharp]

Darby is hurting us. Maybe try Kaiya.

Get her in the low bock, and get her the ball. Shouldn't be that complicated. Requires wings who can spot when she's got
good position and get the ball to her. A lot of times the wings hesitate and miss the chance....

Game is for 4 qtrs not just two.

 

[VolBall09]

We need to attack the basket and create some contact. The officials want to blow the whistle but we aren’t giving them any reason to.

 

[casetopia]

game after game and we still can't make layups.

 

[87&91ALUM]

16-26. 6:53 2nd. Cmon ladies!

 

[Voltopia]

Stanford's lead has been built on defensive recognition and taking advantage of backdoor opportunities. Tennessee had better be very careful. If they sleep on Stanford's offense building a 12-14 point lead, they are going to be hard pressed to get out of a hole against a team this good. Far too many empty offensive possessions to win this game right now.

 

[VolBall09]

Not looking good folks. If we aren’t going to contest the 3 it’s going to be tough to win. Not even making it hard right now.

 

[SGMVols]

That’s just awful defense to give up a coast to coast layup off a missed free throw.
