Game thread: No. 8 Alabama vs. Vanderbilt

Jordan Bruner (knee) is going through warmups with Alabama before today's game against Vanderbilt. He has a brace on his left knee.
Do they appear to be moving well or is there a hitch in their giddy-up?
FWIW Alex Tchikou (Achilles) is doing more in warmups than he usually does. He's not in games shorts and still won't feature for Alabama this season, but he looks to be progressing nicely.
Bruner has a heavy brace, but he's able to jog. Gary looks to be moving fine to me.
For those of you who don't know the numbers, Alabama basketball's starting five is
Herbert Jones
Jordan Bruner
John Petty Jr.
Alex Reese
Tyler Barnes
It's an all-senior lineup.

I really like that . Barnes has worked hard and deserves the opportunity. I hope the others get in quickly .
Vanderbilt leads Alabama 10-8 with 15:01 left in the half. The Tide started the game 2 of 7 from beyond the arc.
Vanderbilt leads Alabama 22-18 with 11:24 to play in the half. The Commodores are shooting 67 percent (8 of 12) from the floor and 80 percent (4 of 5) from 3.
No fewer than 3x today Bama has had 4 guys ready to rebound the ball against one Vandy player and guess who ended up with the rebound?
I didn’t get to watch until the end of the half. On the radio, they said we played a 2-3 early in the half. That true?
Halftime: Alabama 33, Vanderbilt 29.
Alabama ends the half on a 6-0 run. Jaden Shackelford and Jahvon Quinerly have 8 points apiece, while Jordan Bruner has a game-high six rebounds.

Leading at the half. 4 points is not much but I can't feel bad about that the way Vandy shot early on.
Our ball movement and passing are outstanding today. Shots just not falling from outside.
That between the legs crossover Shack did to Pippen was just nasty...he froze that kid solid.
Keep feeling like Bama would stretch it if they made open shots...they have missed a ton today, but agree they still have played pretty good ball and a rewarded with a lead despite shooting terrible.
thank god herb was taken out. Petty has to be next. Keon shack and primo have to bring the lack of energy from the seniors up.
Vanderbilt leads Alabama 38-34 with 15:38 to play. The Tide is shooting just 29 percent from the floor including 6 of 29 from beyond the arc.
nope, outside of a few games this is as good as hes been all year. when hes on hes really good. but outside of some specific games hes garbage on the offensive end and a sure fire foul on the d end. Ellis has 10x the upside as herb.
No energy on offense at all. From no one. I just don’t understand how the entire team can just go through the motions here. Got a chance to win an SEC title.
