Game Thread Lady Vols vs Vanderbilt

[Volfan2012]

Simmons is playing the most intelligent basketball she has played since she has been at Tennessee. I am really exited about her game because of the way she has changed it in the last few games.

There's going to be a dilemma for Warlick. They play better man with Carter and Reynolds. And, the team is better offensively balanced with Carter and Reynolds distributing the ball. Hopefully, Massengale is learning something on the bench. The smart move would be to move Massengale to the two with Simmons.

sounds about right to me from my armchair :hi:

I really like the way the offense is playing right now a lot if inside out. They work hard to get it in there for twenty seconds of the shot clock then work for the best shot available. That is a very good strategy.

Agree! But I also enjoyed how Vandy milked the clock on offense lol:

 

[Volfan2012]

I think this is the best game we've played this season. NC we played a good game and there have been others. I can't remember a defense better than that second half. Vandy gets 21 points.

 

[Slydell]

for a senior,i would have to say that Simmons is the most improved player on the team this year

Looking like that team meeting paid off big time.

 

[Volfan2012]

Unless we see them in the tourney last time we see Lister and Foggie both graduate glad to see them go.

Simmons just said they played Tennessee basketball tonight and she is right

 

[Volfan2012]

They have played good basketball the last six games tonight they stepped it up a notch. If your gonna play man to man you have to have the effort.

 

[Volfan2012]

I imagine we killed them on the boards bet we won by twenty.

Simmons just made her Dad very proud!

 

[Volfan2012]

Five games to go need to win them all and that would be SEC Regular season title.

she did say he told her to play with confidence

 

[gule]

good night all.

 

[Volfan2012]

20 assists plus 14 on the boards thought it was more. We shot 58 percent because we got the ball inside and took high percentage shots almost every possession.

the best i can tell,it is that nobody knows,it must be serious for her not to be even practicing now

 

[Chris89128]

That's how you play D

 

[Volfan2012]

First time they have played Defense this well in the man to man. Now Holly knows they can do it so she should expect it every game.

 

[tonyc]

Good Game for the LVs. They went to their strength Harrison in a mismatch. Good passing and patience. Bottom line 20 assists and only 12 turnovers made the difference. Keep that up and momentum and confidence will change.

 

[governmentmule]

welcome to the board tonyc :hi:


and you are spot on

she should kick some butt if they don't

 

[clkou]

So, everyone is happy right? We avenged one of our 4 losses by 28 points and with one of our star players out with injury. Oh, btw, remember people who said Simmons shouldn't even be playing? Hehe.

 

[governmentmule]

amazing isn't it ?
