Watched the 2006 game between the Lady Vols and Duke today.....The LVs were rated number 1, and Duke was number 2....
This particular game, Duke won rather easily....Zolman had the worst game she ever played....She was ice cold....Parker was Parker, but not a lot of help from the rest of the team...
Our point guard, Hornbuckle, had a bad game as well, and turned it over several times, while their point guard ran amuck on us....
What stood out to me was we still had no offensive flow, much like what we have seen recently with the LVs....Pat was yelling defense, but the offense was very inept....
It took a certain team from the north, to really show how important efficient offensive basketball is to the women's game....Ugly, but true.
Three of the top teams of that era, Tennessee, Duke, and North Carolina, have all three fallen into mediocrity, and have been trying to be relevant again for a very long time...It's a long climb up, when one falls so far.
no. TN is still in the Mix better than the 2
