Game Thread: Lady Vols host Vandy ; Sunday Jan 21, 3PM; SEC Network ;...Win 73-64

[Volfan2012]

Going to need to be a little faster to pass out of those double teams.

 

[LVol]

We have no idea what could be going on with Hollingshead.

Some really bad play by some of our players and some great help by the Refs for Vanderbilt. Evidently a basketball move by Tamari was a foul and then the flop was a foul. We'll have to play really well to win today Refs are not calling a fair game.

It's not about "fairness", it's about "competence"
But, we do need to play really well, as we must every game

 

[Volfaninfl2]

Why not sub in Wynn and Jill for that last defensive possession?

Wynn was standing right by the VU player who made the last shot, and didn’t stop it. Maybe the player would make the free throws, maybe not.

She has to do something to keep vandy players off of her. Refs are letting them maul her.

The person retaliating always gets caught and assessed the technical..

 

[RAVOL]

Let's see if we are really 2nd half team. If so we win by 10 plus. In CHRIST Alone

 

[th2421]

The last few games we have been a much better team with Tamari on the court. That was really the difference in those last few minutes that allowed Vanderbilt to catch up and tie it at half. We also need someone else to step up offensively, we really didn't have anyone step up in the 2nd quarter when Vandy upped their defense on Rickea.

Not always

The restricted zone was removed in women's basketball.

Actually, no. The restricted area, formerly defined by the arc, was changed. The rule now reads:
RULE 4 / DEFINITIONS 51
Section 26. Restricted Area
The restricted area is defined as the area directly underneath the basket. A
defender is considered to be in the restricted area when any part of either foot is
in or above this area, or when the defender is straddling the area.

This does leave room for interpretation by the referee, but, in this case, I don't see how the ref could have said they were not in the restricted area.

They going to get out the way in the 2nd half.. Tennessee should win this one by atleast 10.
Vandy is the worse 17-2 team I’ve seen.

Kinda played down to their level. LVs fixin to blow this thing open.

 

[turbovol]

Hollingshead, offensively, has been a disappointment. She doesn't seem to have a feel for it. A moment ago she gets
the ball in the paint, should have turned and shot, didn't, took a dribble and then shot--an uncontested 8 footer and shot it 6 feet. She's got talent but seems less than confident and comfortable with the ball a lot of the time.

 

[WinnerCircle]

The shots just weren’t dropping people.. they got good looks but some that usually are made were off.
Great thing there’s two halves to a game.

 

[Vols2015]

We have no idea what could be going on with Hollingshead.

Makes you wonder if it has anything to do with the emergence of Key and exceeding expectations.

 

[And1]

Well for one, she’s starting and playing more than what she did last season. Opened the game with a 3 and got RJ to travel. All better than what she did last year.

Laughable.

 

[mudcat1973]

If Monica Seles hadn't been attacked , she would have been the best ever..

Alot tennis people said that.
MC won the most 24 slams
Never seen MC play .

Which team shot a higher pct in 1st half ?

 

[Majors]

Laughable.

And another one…believe she has more points than Puckett, Tess, Spear and Striplin as of this post.

 

[Majors]

Laughable.

Oh my another one

 

[mudcat1973]

Key 4 for four

 

[Vols2015]

Jackson is playing amazing! Patiently waited for Key to post up and passed her a shot for layup

 

[knoxvol52]

Pissott getting to caught up in the noise..

 

[Vols2015]

Hollingshead continues to overthink the game

 

[LVol]

And another one…believe she has more points than Puckett, Tess, Spear and Striplin as of this post.

More than she scored her entire time at TN

 

[LadyVol1908]

is Jackson the only one that can pass the ball to the post this game?!

 

[Clad in Big Orange]

Lid on the basket right now and we’re having trouble hitting the lid.
