Refs are helping a team that’s already on fire…

 

[MontyPython]

Get on the bus and go home.

 

[AthensVol2007]

Gainey is killing us on both ends right now.

If he’s not making shots he’s useless. Hate to say that, but he’s a liability on defense at all times and he doesn’t stop jacking shots when he’s off, leading to wasted possessions.

 

[SlyStone]

What an embarassment

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

61 points in a first half... Worst Barnes performance

 

[volsarelife1]

Let's go!!! We held them under 62 points for half!! That's what I'm talking about. That's that top of the line defense. Would be concerned if we gave up 62 in a half

 

[Caz]

Of course they called that foul

He clearly fouled him

 

[VolunteerCeltic]

Barnes has no answers, too many individuals on this team. They will continue to flame out. Sad to see

 

[vols1071]

Is Awaka hurt? What's the deal?

 

[barney]

This will be Rick Barnes "Jump the Shark" game. It's all down hill from here.

its been going downhill for a while if we are being honest.

 

[DooleyOrangePants]

When you don’t play defense, I don’t care how many points we score - we aren’t going to win important games. Blueprint to beat us this season is out there, see if Barnes does anything about it.

 

[volsarelife1]

Expect to hear tomorrow the entire Team has a "bug". No energy whatsoever.

Too late of a start time. Or it was too normal of a court design

 

[Franklin_Vol09]

Worst half of basketball I’ve seen in many many years

 

[vols1071]

Barnes has no answers, too many individuals on this team. They will continue to flame out. Sad to see

Barnes gets paid a lot....

 

[K-town Vol Fan]

1-12 from 3 and some people blaming refs. We cannot shoot and are asleep on defense. Just a slaughter

 

[VolunteerCeltic]

He clearly fouled him

It looked like he fell down, but it doesn't matter. Vols clearly don't belong in this game

 

[Zues1]

I’d play all young guys all next half. No reason not to at this point

He won't.....

 

[Bryan1]

Hold up, according to some nothing is the refs fault.

 

[TennesseeFan07]

Would you guys have taken 15/18 on 2 point field goals and 100 percent on free throws?

 

[JCP201]

JJJ is playing great

I agree, it would be far far worse without him.

 

[VolunteerCeltic]

Barnes gets paid a lot....

He sure.does

 

[Ernest T. Vol]

Vescovi and ZZ with 2 fouls early hurt. Need some offense from them. Gainey not making anything.

 

[SGidds]

How many points per possession did we give up? It seemed like about 2.

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

61 Pal

Embarrassing

 

[Caz]

No they suck!
