I wonder if Wade has fully recovered from his earlier injury. His shooting hasn't been the same since.

If you can produce 18 and 9 and still have your fans think you sucked your expectations as a player must be through the roof

For Wade to be so far behind their stud on inbound play just shows how clueless we are when the pressure is high.

Will this team even win 2 games in the NCAAs?? Doesn't look like it right now


Possibly but we will be a 4 seed at best so it will be tough

It's the 4-15 shooting and 0-9 from 3 that sucked and why people feel that his shot is off

0-2 was always realistic this week with the level of competition we played. I'm disappointed but not worried about the team. We'll bounce back!

Well Wade is in line to be the All-Time leading scorer.

If you shoot 15 times, scoring 18 points isn't very good

Why the **** did we choose to get into a 3 pt shooting contest when we're in the bottom third in that category? Couldn't hit them for **** against Mississippi State, either

His shot IS off. That doesn't mean he cost us the game. He still was the most productive player on the court for us today

We were 18/29 on 2 point shot, and TN was 10/27.

TN was 13/27 on 3's, and we were 5/30.

These are pretty extreme splits. We have to do a better job getting the ball inside on offense. We have to do a better job of herding shooters into the strength of our defense.

Damn, definitely not our day when they're inhuman behind the arc and our top scorers are off.

Really great game in terms of level of competition, just not what we wanted in outcome.

They were not inhumane behind the arc. In warmups both teams were hitting at a high clip behind the arc. Difference is, during the game we defended the three as much as they were defended in warmups.

I just don't think that is correct. He killed momentum and took opportunities away from others all day as he pecked out his 18 and 9. He was 1 step forward, 1.25 steps backward all day.

Anyone else think we'll hear at end of year Wade was playing through his injury?

18 points and 9 assists on 4/15 shots. Not a terrible line. Would have had 20 on 5/15 if not for Payne's mistake.

maybe. He still seems explosive and probably just a bad game. He will drop 30 on auburns head tho

I think that is the case. He has looked a bit slower and not as mobile as before.

That was the most three pointers Tennessee has made all year

And the reason would be our poor defense of the three in this game. Can't let them feel like they're shooting in warmups.

Also we made 1 3pt shot in the 2nd half. 1. Hard to win with that when the other team shoots 40+% from behind the arc like Tennessee did today.

He wasn't awful (9 assists), but he needs to be better (0-9 3pt, suspect defense) in a game of this importance. I hate to say it, but his performance is a big reason we lost.
the assist were good and produced points. The main thing I can't stand is the shot selection and the turnovers.
He has always been a high volume/poor shot selection shooter. The difference is last year he would have gone 3-9, with one of those makes being a clutch shot down the stretch.

Need Solo and Jace to understand they're wide open for a reason out there. If the defense wants you to shoot that, you probably shouldn't. TN wasn't even really bothering to close out on them.
Wade being 0-9 obviously is bad, but I can live with him shooting it. Solo shooting four threes is four wasted possessions.

You're moving the goal posts from sucked to costing us the game. If you're going to shoot from the logo as often as he does you're going to need to hit some otherwise you're just a momentum killer. For the first time ever I watched him hesitate to shoot open 3s because of how many he's missed lately.

He also doesn't need to be anywhere near the court when we need any kind of a defensive stop.

If we don't make it 1-game deep in the tourney, yep…
If we make it BEYOND that, it'll be "he worked thru adversity" (eyes roll)…..
