Game Thread Lady Vols vs UNC Asheville

[LadyVol1908]

Rennia looks lethargic.

The freshman are playing better.

What the hell KK? I had high hopes for her this season. You shouldn’t ever get blocked by someone shorter.

We need to recruit an elite post player. We have the guards!

I like the fact we got up 38 shots to their 22. If we can do that most games this season we'll win a lot of games. A team really has to out shoot you by a high percentage when you get almost twice as many shots.

 

[Orange_Mamba]

We got up 38 shots because we spent ten of those trying to put back lay ups. We sat under that basket 5 straight possessions trying to make a layup.

Rae plays like an upperclassman. Her body control on her turnaround shot in the lane was amazing. She’s truly a star.

I agree

 

[Orange_Mamba]

Everybody's off tonight.

 

[Rickster]

This team needs to learn how to use the board and to stop riding players and drawing unnecessarily fouls. Not much fun to watch right now.

This ! We seriously have to start getting Elite Post players out of high school . The JUCO route has seemed to be a fixation of Holly when it comes to post players for some reason. London , Mack ect....I want a premier 4 year post player out of high school .

 

[Orange_Mamba]

Our man 2 man defense is non existent. They're breaking the press with ease also.

She's been getting beat on defense almost every time down the court in both games.

 

[LadyVol1908]

Davis should sit, Jackson should sit, KK should sit, and Westbrook should sit.

Why are these guards blowing past them?!?!

 

[orangefloyd]

I know it's early but this looks too familiar.

 

[VolBall09]

These officials are questionable. Yikes.

 

[Pat4life]

Rennia ugh! wuteva? One of the best players in the country, smh. She don't look like she wants to be out there.

Post players don't win Championships, good to great guard play does, the traditional post players is on its way out in the women's game, maybe a few teams.

This kinda effort against a SEC team is a lost.

I agreeeeeee this looks too familiar.

yeah her defensive effort could be better but i love her length and offensive instincts. Her defensive motor will get better i predict.

 

[Orange_Mamba]

They've taken some horrible angles tonight trying to enter ball into the post.

 

[Pat4life]

Our youth is showing itself tonight. When talented players don't come ready to play, your team is or looks average.

 

[Pat4life]

Loving Rae tho! Keep it up, young Lady Vol.

Lol ya think?

 

[orangefloyd]

Out scored 18-8 in the 3rd. By this team. Embarrassing.

That was a awful call against Rae !

I agree, I’m wondering if the ran them really hard I practice to simulate later in the year when you play back to back in the SEC tourney? I feel like they all look like they have dead legs and a lot of shots coming up short.

 

[Pat4life]

Yeah could be.

London is looking good too.

 

[FrozenLVFan]

12 assists, 14 TO's.

 

[Orange_Mamba]

Our post stay getting blocked by 5'8 guards.

 

[Pat4life]

Holly we need mental Giants, not mental midgets.

Still early in the season, but this young has a long way to goo!

I gotta remind myself to be patient, but the effort, focus, intensity, and execution by some players and the team tonight was a liil........
