Game Thread - Tennessee Lady Vols vs #2 Shady Trees & Referees

[glv98]

Here comes RJ early!!!! Guys, what if she has a massive second half and we win? I'll cry myself to sleep in happiness!

Yikes, the press!

 

[VolBall09]

That’s how you get a team out of the press in a hurry!

 

[VolBall09]

Great job by Walker to sell that

 

[glv98]

Maybe its destiny! Brinks 3rd foul on a Walker crazy move!

Yep, destiny! Strip throws a dart and scores.

 

[Volfaninfl2]

GO STRIPLIN!

Having options at PG has also impacted the amount of turnovers. Seems there is a little competition between Walker and Powell which is great. Walker has improved on her turnovers a good deal.

If TN can take away Hannah Jump and fight over the screens they win this game. Also without Brink on the floor Stanford is a different team as we see. They have big`s but not the talented ones that SC have that can come in and hurt you.

Striplin is working them now.

Striplin playing STROOOOONG!

Based on comments of Kellie yesterday when she talked about toughness I think she believes Walker is tougher than Powell.

Not sure how that shows up. Powell is quicker, faster, guards far better, gets to the basket better and shoots as well.

 

[Voluble2]

They clubbed Walker in the head and still get the ball.

Just unbelievable.

 

[NoBackBoard]

Yessss Tesssss!!!!

 

[Volfaninfl2]

TESS with the steal and layup!

 

[ttharp]

Marta needs to sit.

 

[Voluble2]

Everyone seems to be helping today.

Jackson has been the quietest oddly enough.

 

[LadyVol1908]

Marta needs to sit.

Hard to do after the first half she had.

I was worried about the first few minutes of the second half, and Stanford running away with it, but really impressed with our composure and aggression coming out of the locker room.

Have to give some credit to the staff for their halftime adjustments the last few games (and for giving the team the confidence that they can win this on Stanford's homecourt!).

If Strip had quicker feet she would be dangerous. She knows how to play the game. In CHRIST Alone

 

[lvocd]

Ouch. Jones just out-hustled us on that. We had plenty of opportunity to pick it up instead of attempting to let it go out of bounds, too.

Not giving it. It’s her decision.

Ball is in her court, as they say.

 

[cwbytruckers]

Hard to do after the first half she had.

She definitely looks to score

[VOLINVONORE]

I don't care how this game ends(I really want Tennessee win big) but this is the most hustle I have seen in a Lady's basketball in years. Even the bigs are running the floor and playing inspired defense. I love it.

 

[cwbytruckers]

What happened to these girls that all of a sudden they don’t turn it over constantly?

 

[ttharp]

Hard to do after the first half she had.

Good point.

 

[Voluble2]

Powell would force the ball up against a dump truck.
