Is it too soon to wonder if maybe this team is just really bad on offense? Haven't really looked good against anybody do far.

Hall needs to make a bit stronger move to the basket.

I think we'll have a better idea once we hit conference play.

I hope it gets better. This has been rough though. Seems like every time they are on offense no one knows what to do. It's like they are waiting for the defenders to move out of their way. So slow and indecisive. Still early in the season but definitely disappointing.

This is an absolutely terrible offensive team. Bad passing, no movement and absolutely no one can score right now from the outside. This is a continuation of the Gtown loss. We gave up 37 points and lost... How is that possible in 2012?

Tennessee shooting 3 of 15 from the field - that's not going to win a lot of games...

Perhaps they are as exhausted from this coaching search as we are.

Cavaliers up 19-6 in the 1st. Tennessee is struggling in all facets of the game, with two traveling calls (one each on Hall and McRae) hurting what little momentum they have gotten...

If we don't finish this half on a run, it'll take a miracle of a 2nd half to pull it out.

I'm turning this off. Tried the game to get away from the coaching search but this is so bad.
....and Pete Thamel reports Strong turned us down. Sweet. Good night everybody.

Don't want to jinx it, but this may be the run.

The lineup we trotted out a minute ago with yemi, Edwards, Cheivous, Lopez and mcbee was the worst lineup we have put on the floor in meaningful minutes since Bald Kevin #1 was coaching.

Josh Richardson banks in a shot to end the first half. Cavaliers lead 25-16...

Back to back 16 pt games. SMH.
At this rate this team will have played themselves out of NCAAT contention by the time Maymon comes back. But heck, even Maymon can't make up for 16pt halves. To think that a couple weeks ago people were upset that this team wasn't ranked.

Remember when we were looking forward to basketball? But if I recall, last year started out slow. But 52 pts. in 60 minutes.

53 points in a game and a half. Lordy me! Glad I'm not watching. Sounds as painful as a coaching search.
