Another sign of the decimation of the Lady Vol standards. The first charge taken of the season comes in the playoffs. Thats terrible defense and lazy a** defense.
Well to be factually accurate it was the last game of the regular season by Cheridene Green and she got two charges. I agree, we have team speed and should have been beating people to the spot and drawing more charges instead of always reaching in or going for the block. You were close though!
Maybe the coaching staff does not want them taking charges for fear of injury. Taking charges are part of the game and can be great momentum swings.
It is so strang, perhaps the coaching staff does not want the players taking charges, Russell is not aggressive because she might foul out, the team does not set picks because that is not how they play offense, maybe the coaches are not what the Lady Vols need to make this a viable program capable of reaching the final 4.
