HOOPS CENTRAL: LADY VOLS VS. ETSU
Story Links
(Game will be on TV,,, MyVLT8 locally)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- Tennessee, which is receiving votes in the AP and USA Today Coaches Polls, opens the 2019-20 regular-season schedule on Tuesday, Nov. 5, as the Lady Vols take on ETSU at Freedom Hall in Johnson City at 7 p.m. ET.
VolNation:
It's Lady Vol basketball time in Tennessee!
The Lady Vols had a decent first outing beating Carson Newman 70-44.
They will be looking to improve on some things and continue others:
The bad:
- Assists to turnovers : 6 to 11 (we'll take the 11 turnovers, better than last year, but we need to see more team ball on the assist side)
- We shot 35% going 28 for 79 for the game and 2 for 15 shooting three's ,,, we've got to value possessions more
- No one from CN had a career day
- CN never got to the freethrow line
- We only had 12 personal fouls for the game
Some observations:
- We need to work on hedging screens on non-switches
- Softening the release on Fastbreak layups so we get the FB bunnies
- Communication on blindside screens and ball-screens
- Take the charge! (Instead of "getting out of the way" of the driver, I want to see somebody take a charge))
- We have to not lose our man on man defense,,,(You have to know where the ball is, not, follow it!)
- KK and Key together on the floor sounds like a good idea, but to work the "twin tower" set, they will have to learn how to play off of each other instead of "avoiding each" other
- There was no full-court press in this past game.
Let's go Ladies!
Time to get real!
