Game Thread: LADY VOLS VS. VANDERBILT

[VolBall09]

Harper was not pleased with Rae’s decision making right there.

 

[VolBall09]

7 point lead becomes 4 when you don’t play smart. Should have been a 9 point lead at the quarter.

 

[SGMVols]

Totally brain dead basketball by Burrell to force a bad shot when they could’ve taken the last shot. Naturally, Vandy made us pay by hitting a 3 at the buzzer to get right back in the game.

Neither was Lou; she called her out. Dumb move.

 

[Volfan2012]

That is where the low Iq still comes in with this team. Shot clock off had a chance to at least seven point lead or more and Burrell takes a quick shot.

 

[Hoosier]

good grief --- ought to be up by 12-15 points if they'd just make their shots ---- and why does the opponent always seem to be able to get a bucket just before the quarter expires?

 

[glv98]

Yeah for the Get in Their Face Police Harper did just that. Oh if only we could hit a shot. Any shot. Nicely padding the rebound stats tho

 

[VolBall09]

In reality that last play is on Jazz. She has the ball in her hand, essentially unguarded, and passed it to Rae. Why? You know she has trouble with decision making YOU keep it. Pull it out, set up a play.

 

[SGMVols]

Lol, Key got away with an obvious over the back foul.

 

[TN1111]

Horston playing better

 

[SGMVols]

How about we at least attempt to defend their high-low action? They’re getting wide open layups.

 

[TN1111]

Lobbed over Key twice for easy layups

I thought that, too, but on the replay Fasoula totally created that contact and fell into Key with her body.

 

[SGMVols]

Horston almost actually looks like a 5 star today.

 

[VolBall09]

Y’all, Jordan found her second wind

 

[I4Vols]

I am watching the All American freshman...

 

[travis929]

Horston almost actually looks like a 5 star today.

Good to see both freshmen playing a little better and more confidently today.

 

[Orange Maniac]

If we hit our bunnies we would be up by 22

 

[PG1]

Good for Horston playing one of the worst teams in the SEC is just what the Dr ordered.

 

[VolBall09]

I thought that, too, but on the replay Fasoula totally created that contact and fell into Key with her body.

I thought it was a good no call. There was no contact on the initial jump, key was straight up just taller. Fasoula lost her balance, if anything she undercut Key.

No need to front they are not gonna shot over the top of her

We normally shoot much better than this. Thankfully our defense and not turning it over have us ahead.

Not what I expected to see honestly I’ll take it. I think we’ll start hitting those shots as their defense gets tired.

If you can't make smart decisions you shouldn't be in the game.

 

[VolBall09]

If you can't make smart decisions you shouldn't be in the game.

That’s why she’s warming a seat right now.

 

[Volfaninfl2]

Jordan came to play today, we’re finally getting a glimpse of the great player she will be!
