No freaking way!

 

[Creeker]

Well, it’s a halftime lead, it’s not been a confidence inspiring half though.

 

[tnvols72]

JJJ finally gets a good one!

now he will come out firing in the 2nd half

 

[ndubvols]

Maybe JJJ is just thinking too much

 

[87&91ALUM]

27-24 at half time. Nice three by JJJ. Big defensive game.

 

[ClasslessVol]

jjj should just stop shooting wide open threes, wait for a defender to come contest him then shoot

 

[GBO18]

Of course JJJ makes it. Nice shot.

 

[OneVolNation]

That 3 from JJJ was huge before the half. Good to see!

 

[Hallie]

9 of 18 at free throw line .. really ...they look like they just throwing it up there ....

 

[jbr82]

This team doesn’t put in the work on FTs.

Prove you wrong lol

 

[87&91ALUM]

Classes don’t start until 1/24, later than usual

Yeah, I read that late date is hurting our football recruiting because of some dumb rule.

 

[hUTch2002]

Nice to see 3 late half 3s. That’s huge.

 

[TrippieRedd]

ZZ = best player

 

[jbr82]

Just agreeing that Barnes is HOF so this is all on the players. Can’t be any blame on Barnes.

SMH

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Well, I am absolutely floored James made that shot but can’t make wide open ones lol.

This teams FTs are concerning.

 

[ndubvols]

9 of 18 at free throw line .. really ...they look like they just throwing it up there ....

Chandler barely even gets hold of the ball before shooting them. Weird to see

 

[Bigorange123]

They need the fans to get out of their recliners, and help give them some confidence.

 

[sechamp2012]

Yep there’s a couple that should just shoot 3’s with <3 seconds on shot clock that takes pressure off cause you have to take it nothing to lose.

 

[Volfan2012]

Offense isn't getting any better and missing free throws 8 of them a couple that were one and ones doesn't help either. Still a six point lead even with very poor offense.

 

[VolPack22]

We should win this game by 20 If we can hit our free throws in the 2nd half.

 

[Kicker82]

Free throw problems are a major issue. This will get you eliminated in a tourney quick.

 

[OneVolNation]

You have to think at some point the FT shooting will be addressed. That can make the difference between W and L.

 

[87&91ALUM]

Not shooting well is tough but, isn’t all on the Coach. He is responsible for solving the problem.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

BTW theyll run away with it in the second half, i took Scar to cover.

 

[Volprofch05]

Yeah, I read that late date is hurting our football recruiting because of some dumb rule.

I heard that as well but don’t know what that rule is. Seemed to me that later start date might give players more time to decide and enroll?
