The Official #22 Tennessee @ #18 Kentucky Game Thread, 1:00 PM ET, ESPN

[1985Vols]

Olivia is awful against anyone who is worth a dime.

While our 5* sits on the bench. It’s on Barnes for not developing a decent post player the past 3 years

 

[RAVOL]

Best shooting game in a while. But D is giving up the lane to easy. In CHRIST Alone

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Surely they don’t shoot 76% all game

Well, they’ve shot 75% for nearly an entire half, and with the awful defense we’re playing I wouldn’t be surprised. It’s easy to shoot 75% when you’re getting half your points as uncontested layups.

 

[JRVOL11]

Rick Barnes is so dumb.

 

[Phil-A-Man Jaro]

Hitting 3's, no D. Just what we all expected from this team

 

[McCat]

KY can’t keep shooting 80% from the field unless 80 percent of their shots keep being uncontested

80% of the time it works half of the time.

 

[BreatheUT]

I don’t understand where Chandler was on that turnover.

I think he assumed Vescovi could bring it up with light pressure but ORN created in essence a double team.

 

[VOLnVANDYland]

Olivia is awful against anyone who is worth a dime.

LOL, that should really be his knickname.

While our 5* sits on the bench. It’s on Barnes for not developing a decent post player the past 3 years

I can’t disagree.

 

[cjbongoinstructor]

Honest question - is #2 on kentucky getting an extra step each time he drives to the basket or is it just me?

 

[Namorto1]

Our frontcourt has been a no show thus far and help defense has been lacking. We are lucky to be only down 7.

 

[BreatheUT]

Seems like he’s been told not to help off of Tshiebwe

I wonder if he's been told not to help off anyone.

 

[Sugaray13]

Wheeler is eating KC’s lunch

Not sure why we put pressure on him 35 ft from basket knowing how quick he is and you can’t leave shooters to help.

 

[1985Vols]

Feels like Fulkerson has been there since Devoe was the coach

Kind of over Fulky. He just Hasn’t improved since his Sophomore year

 

[vols1071]

James is just running up and down the court.... Do something

 

[Bigorange123]

Best shooting game in a while. But D is giving up the lane to easy. In CHRIST Alone

Maybe they figured the aggressive defense was killing their legs on shots.

 

[golfballs]

Bills can’t stop talking about Texhiebwe

 

[TrapVol]

Did the announcer say that a lane violation should result in the shooting team just getting the ball? I didn’t quite catch it. If so, that’s a terrible idea.

 

[Tri-CitiesVol]

ON not a smart basketball player.

Sup. Favorite Hanson song?

 

[1985Vols]

Our defense a no show

 

[87&91ALUM]

Cats 14-18 from the field

 

[mr.checkerboards]

I dont mind that shot from Powell. But SV is the best offensive player we have on the court at the moment

 

[hUTch2002]

How is it possibly legal to reach over a player like that?

 

[cobbwebb0710]

The basketball IQ is questionable.
GBO!!

 

[87&91ALUM]

Powell needs more playing time.
