If Simmons was just half as good as she thinks she is then she would be decent.Just not this game but the games I have watched she takes very poor shots and a turnover machine.They play better when shes not in the game. but this game was over at 17-0.
Except for just a few games ago when she dropped 30+
Being a shooter means you have off nights. Being 6'10 means you very rarely have off nights.

Without Izzy we had no chance. Still, I can't understand why Tennessee puts on its "choke" shoes every time they play Baylor. 17-0 down to start the game? That's absurd. In our last four games against baylor, we have not once shot 30 percent, I don't think. Incredible. Five walk-ons could do better.
The bs touch fouls against Bashara set us back early and allowed Griner a free pass in the paint. Its expected though. I think she got called for one foul all night and if someone bodies her up its an instant whistle. Am I making this up or are you guys seeing it also?
Sorry, can't agree. Bashara was doing all she could to defend against Griner. There is no doubt that Graves was fouling with the body. She was keeping her hands straight up, a good idea given she wouldn't be able to reach the ball anyway, but she was definitely banging with the body.The bs touch fouls against Bashara set us back early and allowed Griner a free pass in the paint.

And if Griner was a Lady Vol, would you still have the same opinion? If you did some research, you'd find that many women have large adams apples. I don't notice you questioning Graves' gender because of her manly shoulders.I heard just a bit of Basilio going off on Griner this morning and the thing that stood out is that Griner supposedly turned down the chance to play for the Olympic team this past Summer because she wanted to spend more time with family. What is telling about that is that if she were to have tried out for the Olympic team, she may have had to prove she was a woman and the NCAA apparently does not require that. Personally I've seen too many pictures of her Adam's Apple to believe that she is a woman.
He'd love for Tennessee to lower the academic standards to widen the recruiting pool to get players that can't get into any other school.
