Game Thread Lady Vols at Texas

[Pat4life]

usually when she has a terrible offensive night she makes up on it defensively, but tonight she's terrible on both ends.

Look at Diamond, wuteva?

I have no idea what happened to Diamond. She was not like this in High School or AAU basketball. I don't know if something is going on mental or what.

 

[Pat4life]

Good defense there tho. Diamond, if she plays well, mane we can be solid. Reynolds liability wouldn't hurt as much.

2 great defensive plays by DD! We need to stop standing around and attack the basket

 

[Pat4life]

She doesn't put in the necessary work, in the offseason.

They played a lot of pickup basketball, rather than working on their individual game.

Yeah! Impressed with the defense to start the half.

I agree Reynolds need not be running the point

 

[Pat4life]

there ya go, fight back Diamond,

 

[Pat4life]

I see ya Diamond.

 

[Only1COJ]

Like I said, BOXOUT, REBOUND, RUN, SCORE!!!! Go lady Vols!

 

[armchair]

We should play uptempo--run whenever possible. That is obvious as DD, for one, can play up tempo and can't play slow tempo, essentially.

 

[governmentmule]

all right

Go Diamond

Diamond turning on the oven in the 2nd half with her defense and penetration to the rim finishing!!

 

[Pat4life]

I agree Reynolds need not be running the point

If Diamond was an efficient scorer then, Reynolds running the point wouldn't be bad, or Middleton, or Meme. But that requires Diamond, playing really good basketball.

 

[mlindsay]

Diamond needs players that make her up her game, she had that at UNC (McVanga, Gray, Washington) she hasn't in a sense truly had it here and I think it has hurt. She is a baller but she needs others around her to do their thing as well and she hasn't had that.

Nared balls out in the first half and now the competitor in Diamond says I have to out due her (it's no ill intention its how she is motivated) from what I have seen.

Nared lead Diamond (and this team) to Greener Pastures! You have been anointed savior! (Joking but so serious)!

 

[LadyVol1908]

Diamond should just drive and elevate

 

[jwhite9]

Diamond is much better playing uptempo basketball just like she did at UNC and in high school. Thats how you USE her Holly.

 

[mlindsay]

See how Naired is praising her, that's what she desires and no one seems to have realized that! Keep it up Jaime!

 

[th2421]

Forced two shot-clock violations in 3 minutes. Love it!

Good defense Diamond,

 

[governmentmule]

tie game

 

[Pat4life]

I see ya Diamond. Nice rhythym

I have been saying this! Nared and DD has to be the focus of this offense not Mercedes, yes I love the inside out be Russell is not dominant for the inside out type of game that Holly wants to play!

 

[jwhite9]

Diamond and that 2nd half DEFENSE:rock::rock:

 

[Pat4life]

Diamond is playing better, we need this player all the time.
