It's time for some of Bowden's shots to go to someone else. I know the only way to get out of a slump is to shoot your way out of it, but going 1-17 is a good way to shoot your team out of a game.

Can it really even be called a "slump" at this point? A slump is what happens to an otherwise good shooter going through a bad streak. Maybe Bowden just can't shoot?

I can't believe we won a game where we shot 25.9% from the floor. You don't see that very often.

JJJ and Vescovi will both benefit from off season program. For many who take shots at JJJ because he was 5 star and he is not ready for NBA is unfair. There is alot to his game I like and much more to work with.

He’s been improving for sure. Had some ill advised passes and drives this game, but the rest of his game (3s, defense, rebounding) was good.

 

[VolGee4]

Your talking about the Martin that made it to the final 4 a couple of years ago aren't you?

No, Cuonzo.

 

[ColinS]

Fulky played his best game as a Vol and we needed every bit of it.

He's a career 36% shooter from 3-point range.

Vescovi is SUCH a cutie pie!!

Now I see why there are 900 replies to this kind of game.

CRB is now 9-7 against CFM dating back to their Big 12 days.

Defensive struggle and Fulkerson was the player of the game today.

 

[Volfan2012]

Six threes to their 2 and they couldn't make their free throws and that is how we won with 14 total field goals.

You can see his bright future. I am glad he is not one and done.

Final box.

Cuonzo Martin

Beautiful pass Drew Pember. Knew that it only had to be touched and didn’t give SC a chance to score. Can’t teach that kind of talent

Are you being sarcastic? I’d think that was the inbounds play given from the bench?

 

[ArdentVol]

Fulkerson was clutch down the stretch. And throughout.

Christ School education

Vescovi can be sooooo good. Just gotta limit the TOs

Still has to be well placed

 

[njvols]

SC won stat line in most every category except FT's and 3PT's...that was the difference. UT out rebounded, crazy low shooting percentage. Will take the win, but someone's gotta start making some shots.

Good, strong fanbase

Vescovi had five turnovers in nine minutes in the first half. Only two in 14 minutes in the second half. Progress? lol

 

[Volfan2012]

Really need to rethink the offense Pons and Bowden shoot 24 times and only make 1 shot. I think James and Vescovi need more of those attempts. Easy win if they make 6 of 24 but at least a win and hope we don't see anything like this the rest of the season done saw this twice and this was the worst of the two.

 

[KBVol]

Just throw the ball deep. And please don’t throw it in to Bowden.

1 for 2, somehow it worked out....probably because Bowden didn’t have to shoot it

 

[KBVol]

Vescovi had five turnovers in nine minutes in the first half. Only two in 14 minutes in the second half. Progress? lol

Only 7 turnovers for our starting point guard? Definitely progress.

 

[Freak]

Efficiency leaders.

Fulkerson 22
James 12
Vescovi 8
Pons 6
Pember 6

We have a love/hate relationship with our Vols. To be fair, this game was the definition of a nail-biter.

 

[Vol737]

Pretty sure these guys don’t practice shooting the ball in practice. 26%?? Geeez.
