we played much more intensity against Tennessee
Guy was our best player at times, including the key reason we beat Duke. He’s far better than what he’s showing right now.
He’s our best rebounder.
Noah is our only rebounder.
Williams gets some of the ones that fall to him. He goes and gets none.
Vandy, the smallest team in the SEC, has 8 offensive rebounds at the half.
Be thankful for any win going forward. We’re just too limited in several areas.
Rebounding, turnovers, and defense. Oof. Like how we got to the line and knocked down our free throws. I’ll take scoring 41 in a half with these lineups. But will it be enough?
Gotta limit Chandler in the 2nd half. Every time he passes the ball, it's either a turnover, or very very close to being a turnover.
I don't understand why he can't just make the simple pass. Got a guy 8' from him wide open with his hands up, but Chandler tries to loft it to the top of the key, to a guarded Garrison. Like, why would you do that?

Problem is that Pope can’t make them faster and they get torched in Zone. Rebounding is Heart, you have to want to get the ball. Not stand there hoping it comes to you.
Rebounding is about putting your *** into somebody when the shot goes up. It's hard as fuq to jump when somebody boxes you out well
We try to politely reach for it instead of putting a body on someone. Drives me nuts.
Noah and Perry 0 for 5. That hurt and needs to change.
Brea has to give the Cats something in the second half.
yup. even our bigs i don't think know how strong they are. it's like how the hell can you be this timid being the size you are? makes zero sense to me
I like
Anyone who has ever had a serious back injury has no trouble understanding what's happened to his game. It literally effects everything
I was wondering if they were talking about KSR's MJ. Apparently they were. Oof.
he's the softest guy on a soft team .. runs from contact .. has no skill other than bombing away .
I know not everyone here cares for him, but I enjoy the KSR nods on national broadcasts. Makes it feel more fun. And lands knows we need some kind of laugh atm.
He has been better than Perry and Noah tonight
Looked much more comfortable and confident. Other than the TO he played well, IMO.
Perry and Noah have crapped the bed so far tonight.
Need better from them.
Need better from them.
I'm gonna say it , I hated the way Oweh celebrated that block in half .. it wasn't to fire up the team , it was " Look at me" celebration ... how bout you rebound dude . And it was a rather routine swat .. big deal stud
Jumping can get you a couple if you’re out of position. If you’re in position and blocking out the ball could hit the ground and you pick it up off the bounce. We’re ball watchers. We don’t get in to position when the shot goes up. It’s frustrating to watch. Amari gets into position and gets boards but he doesn’t use his body. Noah uses his body and gets position. Oweh doesn’t get position but is physical enough to get to balls. Outside of that, we suck at it.
