We lost when Phillips didn’t take the dunk

[BreatheUT]

Vanderbilt wasn't close to being able to stop that dunk.

 

[bleedrng]

Ok it's still a foul then. You're 6'9 go strong

That, and he's shooting like 82% from the line.

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

Yes when you have that opportunity just slam it, see what happens

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

Any NBA player slams that and doesn't think twice automatic 2 pts

 

[allvol123]

He was going to get knocked to the floor if he went up for that. No chance of scoring.

So you get 2 shots instead of a front end of a 1 and 1.

If we finish like that, we won’t we a 4 seed my friend. We just fell to a four with that one loss.

Nah, we probably are first four out, now.

Am I doing it right?

 

[vols 30]

Just play defense in the 1st half and there would have been no late drama

Or just dunk the ball. Plain and simple.

 

[Jersey Moonshine]

Dunk the basketball and we’re up by four and it’s a two possession game. What the heck was he thinking? Maybe I’m missing something which wouldn’t be the first time.

 

[GBO18]

Come on Freak. Let’s have 10,000 post minimum to start a thread.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

Heck he may have gotten a chance at a 3 point play, good chance he gets fouled there.

No doubt and if he gets fouled and misses at least it's a two shot foul not one and one. That's a horrible basketball IQ play by him

is this supposed to be clever? After today’s loss we’re likely dropping four more spots. So, that puts us on the four seed. If we finish 50% to close out, which is what I predict, we will not be a four seed. Why you’d take that and try to make it sound as if I’m standing outside Barnes’ house with a moving truck is beyond me.

Based on the last three games, do you think this team is heading in the right direction??

We won't drop to a 4 with this. That's an insane drop. We will be the last #2 if we win Saturday. Still on the 2 line. next week will be what we are ultimately judged on.

How many 1 seeds are there? Four
How many 2? Four
How many 3? Four
4x3=12

UT dropped from 2 to 9. After this loss, which is a bad loss, I predict 13. Based on ranking and 2nd grade math, that puts the Vols as a four seed.

Edit: my bad, the AP has them 6th. My point remains. If we don’t get some stuff fixed quick, we won’t be a four seed. This team has major issues and is heading wrong direction.

With a win this weekend vs Missouri we will be around 8-9 BPI... That's a final 2 or first 3.

Somewhere around 17-18 would be your first 4 seed

I hope we’re a 1 when it’s said and done, but if you aren’t seriously concerned about this team after the last three games, then I don’t know what to say.

Interesting

 

[VOLtaism]

This team now will be underdogs to UK, Bama, Arky, and Auburn. You pick it against the others. No more 10-point favorites on the road. Its crunch time.

 

[orangemadam]

Philips received the ball and dribbled right by Barnes. Is everyone sure Barnes didn't tell him to ice it?

 

[vol94]

Bonehead play. We were at the game standing and then in shock when he dribbled around. Barnes said he should have dunked it and gone up four.

 

[vol94]

You obviously listened to the game on the radio if you honestly believe this.

Exactly. It was an easy dunk! Nobody near him.

Puzzling to say the least but he dribbled around like a foul puts him on the line. I think that confused him but it was costly. Vescovi still cannot miss the front end of a 1 in 1. That's what he's in the game for.
