Game Thread:Volunteers vs. Marquette

[bigdaddy]

There are very few good transition 3s, especially for this team.

I will agree that this team is not a good three point team, but the transition three is a great option. Hell, we lived off that last season.

We're just not the same without Prince. Hopson is lost, but that's understandable from a Freshman.

No it isn't. He has played basketball his entire life.

 

[Volsguy12]

did we get the tip off?

We did, but Marquette got a jump ball call. So it'll be ours.

Yes, because basketball in Hopkinsville, KY and the NCAA are very similar.

If I'm coaching, this team doesn't take transition 3s.

NOt looking as bad tonight as we did against Temple. Seems like we are moving players in and out more tonight too.

you do know College ball is a whole other ball game from Highschool

 

[Dustin4Vols]

[kiddiedoc]

The three looked contested to me.

Don't sass me!

But... you're not.

Marquette is not shooting the ball as well as Temple did.

Basketball is basketball. The rules don't change because the players are better.

a few tattoos is one thing, but your whole body is like wtf?

Maze can only be 19 or 20 and almost his entire body is tatted up. Where do you come up with the money/desire to cover up your body in 3 years?

you dont have to be 18 to get tats, if youre under 18 you can get them with parents permission, hes probably been getting them since he was 14 or 15

Your right there, Temple was knocking them down everytime it seemed like.

We also don't attempt 4 oops in the first half, including one to our backup center.

 

[tidwell]

Anyone remember the last time they converted an alley oop?

 

[MillsfieldVOL]

marquette is not shooting the ball as well as temple did.

amen !

 

[AllVolYall]

remember Christmas ripped those 3's and put up 30 on us in the 2nd half

Don't kid your self. The game is very different from highschool to college. The rules may be the same (although they aren't), but things are different.

 

[BigPapaVol]

But... you're not.

And...we missed every one we took. Remind me of our %.

Agree to disagree. I like the transition 3 especially with the trail guy. You have numbers under the rim (normally) and can get a wide open 3. But, we need to have someone to make that shot, no doubt.

I suspect I'm more aware than you are. Baskeball fundamentals are the same. Excuses for being lost are simply excuses.
