Cats @ Vols Official Game Thread

That was hard to watch those final 4 minutes and us up 8 and the lead continually dwindling. So happy we pulled it out!
 
That could be a season changing win. We will have to see in the coming weeks but all you have to do is look at UNC last year. The question is can you build on it.

It certainly helps the teams moral and confidence.

Love the fight. Season changing win? Maybe. Have to play CJ and Reeves together, get them shots and live with it. Let Wallace grow into the point. Let Livingston grow at the 4. Let Oscar be Oscar. Wheeler and Toppin can still help hugely but off the bench. Use Thiero as a Swiss Army knife type guy. Lessons have to be learned from this game or it’s for naught.
 
Hey Cal.

If we don’t run the offense through Reeves the rest of the season then Cal has lost it. He’s been the best offensive player on the team all year…use him. Even back in the Bahamas before we started playing force it inside basketball he was leading the team in scoring and searching for his shot.
You are exacly right and if he doesn't use the high screen he is simply being stupid. However, I don't want to see anymore of Wallace at the point. He does nothing with the ball but put his teammates in bad positions with the shot clock running down.

So happy we won. Hopefully that ignites this team. Crazy thing is we still didn't play all that well on the offensive end IMO. Lots of TO's and didn't shoot well. But we played great D and didn't back down from the physicality. This team, if they put it all together, can make the Tourney and make some noise. LETS GO CATS!!!.

To be fair, they're the best defensive team in the country so that likely had something to do with it. We likely won't see anything like it again, except for the other game(s) against them.
 
Theiro at point with Wallace Reeves CJ and Oscar let’s rolls throw in Toppin and Livingston and a few minutes for Wheeler and Collins
 
UT was poorly coached today. Why didn't they attempt to press UK? It was almost like the two coaches changed positions
you're gonna keep beating that Wheeler needs to play all the minutes drum

I admire your dedication

If you run Wheeler at point with the high screen, Wheeler would pick a defense apart with his drives to the basket. It would be the best thing to happen to Oscar this season.
