The Official #6 Tennessee vs. Florida Game Thread, 5:00 PM ET, ESPN2

I’m talking about Florida. They are hacking Knecht basically every time he touches it and it’s only called about 25% of the time.
At the time you said that knecht had hardly played in the 2nd half. The first 10 minutes or so of this half we were just playing like garbage. But I agree since he’s come back in I’ve seen 2-3 missed fouls on him
 
DK is one of the best all around scorers that I’ve seen on the hill in a long time. Can shoot the 3 and go to the hole with the left or right hand. Not to mention can jump out of the gym. Wish we could have had him for more than one year but sure glad we get at least one. Really fun to watch.
 
I honestly cannot remember ever seeing anything like this in Tennessee basketball history in my lifetime. I wasn’t alive for Bernard King, but this is insane. I’m in love.

Bernard was this good ….he was a bad man! Different game….if he got yu to 12 feet, it was done.
 
Sad thing is the refs are calling a good game for most part. TN fouls way too much. But it’s more fundamentals w keeping your guy in front and not falling for the “pump fake” and leaving the floor. It’s easier said than done. Lol
The shot a good percentage of their free throws during the stretch when we quit guarding them and let them drive right to the basket over and over.
 
I think the only players in my lifetime you can reasonably compare this to is Allan Houston, Grant Williams, and Chris Lofton. But I was really young during the Houston years. This just feels different.

Every one of the guys mentioned, including Bernard, could absolutely take a game over. Few do it consistently.
 
71-51 for the under 8, 7:40 to go

Samuel finally getting fouls called and has 3.

Aidoo with 19 points and 9 rebounds 2 blocks 2 assists and 1 steal
DK with 29 points and 7 rebounds with 1 assist

ZZ, Santi, and JJJ just haven't had to take many shots. JJJ has 6 rebounds with 3 assists & a steal, Santi has 3 rebounds and 2 assists with a steal.

ZZ has 7 points with 4 assists on 2-2 shooting (2-3 FTs)

Offense almost seems to operate better when DK goes point forward at times
I think he sees the court very well from the point and he can go either way and use both hands, but I think you just use that in the flow of the game or when you need a bucket badly.
 
The only negative about tonight is how sloppy we have been with the lead. I think they have slacked off a little. It hasn't hurt this game but I hope it doesn't bite us in another game.
