Game Thread Lady Vols vs Kentucky SEC Tournament Championship Game

why the hell is bashaara graves allowing people to go around her so much. conditioning is a concern among other things. these teams have played the same number of games and the lady vols are loafing up and down the court and kentucky keeps running.

Were must start pushing and shoving under the basket like they are. If they call fouls on us then we know these Refs are cheats. They are pushing and shoving under the basket no calls. We need to respond.
 
At least Holly was tearing into the refs at the half. Here is what scares me. The refs come out and change the pattern and start calling tick tak fouls.
 
Holly is letting Kentucky and Simmons dictate the game. She needs to sit her. Holly hasn't learned this team can win without Simmons.
 
im glad she is leaving. only if she was half as good as she thinks she is

She is great in games that don't matter. Her league stats are really outstanding. She just gets amped up in big games and doesn't shoot well. Most of her shots have been open and she has missed layups.

There just isn't much to choose from at guard for us. Reynolds gets caught looking a lot on defense and Jones has trouble with turnovers. But I think you have to play those two more anyway instead of hoping Simmons gets on track because she has never played well in a big game yet in her career. You will be waiting forever for her to settle down.

Graves is very slow in reacting. One play she didn't even attempt to jump and block a point blank shot by that KY girl.Hell their all slow! Admittedly I haven't really watched them since Pat was coaching and Candace was there.

They have a lot of depth Refs letting them have their way gonna be tough for our team.

We need to stop running with them-they have more depth and playing into Mitchell's plans. When Simmons pulled the last rebound we should have taken our time for last shot and Simmons runs down and turns it over.

Hard to watch WCBB games with all the bad calls. I wish we could get an upgrade in officiating. They seem to call touches and let beat downs go unnoticed. It makes games hard to bare.

I've said all season with the limited number of players on this team we should be trying to get the ball inside for twenty seconds of the shot clock before we launch one from outside. We can run with people next year this year we don't have enough players. One thing Holly hasn't gotten as a coach.

I have watched for over three decades and I am seriously considering giving it up because there is just no point in watching the refs decide who wins and loses. There is no rhyme or reason to it.

The problem has always been rough play under the basket. So what do they do? They call touch fouls 30 ft away from the basket that don't affect anything and then they can't call the fouls under the basket without it becoming a free throw shooting contest.

Idiots.

Rushed shots, slow, weak defense. Maybe we will be ready in the 2nd half, we have not been ready in the 1st half many times this year.
 
The last take down after the last Vol basket was what CHW was pissed about don't blame her, elbow extended above shoulders to chin with a knock down and was obvious but not called.
 
Some of our best game is when we set up in the half court try to get the ball inside and take perimeter shots as a last option. Against A&M the first time we played them we hardly ran at all won by double digits. We need to quit launching shots value possessions and that also limits their possessions.
 
I haven't been that disappointed thus far. We have had shots (quite a few) rim out, some bad calls, and some crazy shots by KY. Wish our post defense was a little better but still

I agree and we can't hit close shots.
