Game Thread: Lady Vols v Belmont, Home, Thurs. Nov 13th, 7PM, SEC Network

pauldo and civil

Yep, 13 is actually best at keeping the ball in front. Fundamentals, effort and quickness.

 

[VolBall09]

What’s a good team percentage? but D definitely needs alot of work

45/35/80

If we can shoot those from the field, three and the line we will be VERY hard to beat.

 

[th2421]

besides cooper, who is actually good at one on one defense?

I think Boyd is maybe our best defender in the half court. It's too bad she seems to have regressed on offense.

 

[JCP201]

Need to rebound better

 

[VolBall09]

I like civil

Yes extremely talented defender.

 

[volfan99c]

Latham could probably make something shake too huh?

Latham has had a really slow start. hope she's ok and that she'll be back soon

 

[Unimane]

Man, this team cannot shoot.

 

[VolBall09]

Slow start to this quarter as well. We’ve got to figure that out.

 

[volfan99c]

who would you all say is the weakest one on one defender? so far i'm thinking wolfenbarger is looking like a real weak link right now. hoping they can hide her but it might be tough once we get to conference play

 

[chuckiepoo]

Pauldo is going to be a very effective 1-1 defender. Barker also has a lot of potential there and has looked better tonight for sure. Locked up a couple girls and got them caught in no man’s land with no dribble.

Interior defense has been better as well. Fuller has gotten some looks but they have been really tough and she was forced off balance without fouling.

Pauldo is not there yet on defense.

 

[VolBall09]

Garbage call on Cooper there. Good offhand defense and ball handler was making no effort.

 

[JCP201]

Cooper is a star

 

[volfan99c]

cooper looks motivated this game, much more engaged. glad she's feeling better

 

[VolBall09]

Great defense from Jersey. Stepping out on the PG and locking her up.

 

[knoxvol52]

Prawl wide-open for a 3 and Spearman tries to rough shot her way down the lane...

 

[VolFanGBO]

Jersey needs to get it together. Does nothing but foul.

 

[lfvol]

Pauldo is not there yet on defense.

She got beat once tonight. Forced 2-3 steals and worked harder than anyone else tonight. She’s fine.

 

[VolBall09]

Prawl wide-open for a 3 and Spearman tries to rough shot her way down the lane...

To be fair Prawl has been very cold from three. I agree though, gotta give that up there, too much traffic. I think 3x3 messed her up there, way more space to operate around the basket in 3x3. Just can’t do that in 5x5

 

[chuckiepoo]

Dayum, zee

 

[ron1989]

Where is Latham?

 

[ShortyMac10]

1 step 2 step lay up..don’t need that extra

 

[ShortyMac10]

Latham has had a really slow start. hope she's ok and that she'll be back soon

Wait she’s hurt?

 

[VolBall09]

Prawl just can NOT dial one in. Once she sees one go down I hope it picks up.

 

[And1]

Not looking good at the moment.

 

[VolBall09]

Ball sticks too much in Pauldo’s hands right now. She needs to get rid of it faster and move instead of dribbling around.
