Texas at Tennessee (merged thread)

[mbr33ct]

This version of Lady Vols still don't like to pass the ball...especially if Hayes has the ball.

Texas has not had 1 good inbound bass the whole game. Antonelli agree's.

 

[JordyG]

Both bigs foul out and still no Boothe. All in all, if it continues like this, it's undeniable that this is a big win for Tennessee. The players will celebrate, but both coaches will watch the film and know the truth.

3 on 1 break and you can't make a stupid pass! Terrible - just flat out terrible.

 

[mbr33ct]

But what is most bothersome for Texas is the lack of fundamentals: Poor boxing out, missed layups, lack of execution on both ends, lazy screens, poor basketball decisions in the half court, poor basketball decisions on the break, the inability to keep your man in front of you on defense, poor cutting on offense, bad hands trying to rebound. On and on.

I cannot believe Texas is the second best team in the land, just amazing to me.

Gads... Texas can't even execute a 3 on 1

That was a very Dirty play

It was indeed. The "butt screen" is not a legal play.

 

[TitleTown]

There have been some extremely dumb plays by both teams down the stretch.

I didn't think Russell's screen was a dirty play - Atkins needs to keep her eyes open. My general take on this game:

- Each team has 9 assists - lost of dribbling/not much passing.
- TN has gotten away with several blatant travels. Particularly Nared in the 3rd quarter - 3 steps to the basket while not even pretending a dribble continuation, was holding the ball against her stomach with both hands.
- TN more energetic and aggressive after rebounds. Just plain lack of effort from Texas in some cases. If anyone deserves to win, it's probably TN - for effort.

That was a very Dirty play

She did stick her butt out a bit! Maybe not too obvious to be seen by the refs

 

[MilfordHusky]

For both teams ... inbounding the ball is a lost art.

 

[RockyMTblue2]

Texas gets a turn over and gives it away.

 

[Orangutan]

Ok, that last sequence just turned into slapstick comedy.

 

[mbr33ct]

Wow...just wow.

 

[CTyankee]

I feel sorry for the referees...

 

[huskeynut]

There is no evidence of basketball fundamentals for either team.

 

[RockyMTblue2]

Ok, that last sequence just turned into slapstick comedy.

You Orang have a high threshold!

 

[MilfordHusky]

What a turnover fest.

19 assists to 30 TOs.

 

[JordyG]

McCarty getting a hug from Warlick was a sweet moment.

 

[DallasBUFan]

Good for Tennessee, at least you can say they are young. What is Texas's excuse?

 

[DefenseBB]

The really sad thing if Texas loses is Tenn will think they are a top 10 team...

 

[eebmg]

Bizarre. McCarty fouls out and hugs Holly. Cant wait until after the game.

 

[CTyankee]

The really sad thing if Texas loses is Tenn will think they are a top 10 team...

Or the fans will...

 

[jennyo70]

Can they both drop in the polls, please?

Better yet, can they both lose?
This is some of the worst basketball I️ have ever seen, and I’ve seen some bad basketball.

Holly should buy McCarty a big dinner for what she didn't do during the game.
