Game Thread Lady Vols at Kentucky

[Spacejam]

Missing layups doesn't help.

 

[Voluble2]

I missed it, but did KY switch to a zone at the half? I had to be away from the TV for a bit and noticed they looked like they were in a zone on the possession I saw.

 

[utvolkyle06]

Just got on the forum, but have been watching on TV. Is it me or has the officiating been really pro UK the second half?

Once Epps started going off, we should have gone zone. Did Warlick do anything? No. Still playing man.

 

[DoubleA]

Minus 12 in the third quarter because two guards no more than 5'5" tall scored nine layups.

This is Holly basketball.

How can anyone still defend this coach?

Have to go to the rim like you deserve to be there and not shy away from contact...

Ms 6'6" needs to play on the blocks.

 

[orange plasma]

here we go again... Holly has her jacket off... Easier to throw her arms up...

Don't forget the incessant whistling. That's a big motivator.

I would feed Russell every set. If they could pass it to her chest and not over her head and let her create contact and fouls. Epps is jumping into players. See if they give Russell the same calls.

Russell doesn't go to the basket, she falls away. She doesn't appear to like contact.

I think the officials have stiffed us on a couple of calls, for sure. Cooper got fouled going to the basket--they are not calling much on Kentucky and calling everything on us.

Russell doesn't have the intensity to play college basketball. She is used to being way bigger than everybody in high school and that made it easy to catch and score.
Graves is undersized about 6'1" and has no jumping ability.
The main problem is poor defense and stupid turnovers.

Yea but so have the Lady Vols..

Lol

 

[Voluble2]

I bet Holly yelled at them to get it inside because they passed up two open shots in this qtr already.

 

[Spacejam]

Maybe every player on the team needs to start jumping and throwing their body at Kentucky players maybe they will get calls to get to the line.

 

[Real Info]

What are we running on offense?

 

[TN1111]

We are clueless in the half court

 

[casetopia]

nared WTH

 

[NEVolFan]

They won't crack 50 at this rate.

 

[Sandvol]

How can we be so offensively inept?

 

[Voluble2]

Got a break there. It was clearly off of us.

Nope.. Only works for KY apparently

 

[Voluble2]

We set a double screen for Reynolds when she can't hit anything that far out.

 

[Volstylexx]

Cooper is the only glimmer of hope over the last two games.

 

[armchair]

Our hate our offense. I have hated our offense for 10 years, and for good reason: it absolutely sux. STAY IN the PAINT, Russell.

 

[mlindsay]

We will be seeing Kortney soon
