The Official Tennessee @ Georgia Game Thread, 8:00pm EST, ESPN3

Mcbee is a 3pt specialist who really isn't all that good at shooting 3's. He hits a couple here and there but he doesn't hit them consistently enough. And his D was terrible tonight especially in OT.
 
We lost this game on turnovers - consistently hurts us not having a true ball handler. CCM talked about this being a big problem after the last game, not sure why haven't done anything to improve this part of the game. And I can't wait til Tatum graduates.

Who do you want the ball to go to in a zone on that last play? If your PG can't create something, please tell me which guard you want to create something for Maymon or Stokes.

Have you ever once seen Golden make a good play with less then a minute on the clock (half or game)? Golden panicks everytime. Golden never creates in crunch time he dribbles and throws up a bad shot everytime(or falls). At the end we were down 3 and he threw up a wild running 2 point shot with 14 seconds to go when we realistically had to have a 3.
 
Martin doesn't know how to coach offense. We can't hit free-throws or lay-ups. Maymon has the potential to be awesome when he figures out how to hit baskets outside of him putting his entire hand threw the rim.

So a coach at a Div 1 school should have to teach a kid how to hit a layup or make a free throw?
 
Well it is, what it is. Good night fellow Vols lets do this again Saturday. Oh don't forget Lady VOL's vs LSU tomorrow night. Good night all GBO!

So once again, which guard do you want to run the offense at the end? He's a two guard forced to play the point because the former coach didn't have any PGs on the roster.
 
mcbee is the least of the vols problems.you know what your going to get out of him every game.not having a true pg hurts but they would be fine if they would just run the offense threw maymon and stokes and stop all the empty drives by tatum and golden and who ever else that results in a turnover more often than not.

I agree Golden is a ball hog.This needs to be addressed.If it has been done then sit his ass.

I agree Golden takes a lot of shots, but many of them are toward the end of the shot clock..Not really defending him, but when it is situations like that, who u rather get the shot?..Check it people...There is a reason that opposing teams put their best defender on Golden, because no one else is a threat to get 18 or 20 points..Stokes will be the guy soon, but right now, Golden is our best option..Now how sad is that?lol

Yeah I agree Tatum has seriously got to stop attacking the basket in traffic so much. Seems like everytime he attacks the basket it leads to a turnover.
 
Well it was a game we could and should have won.Wow we are bad on the perimeter.We have zero guard play.Golden is a 2 guard that thinks he's the next Jordan except without the skills.We need a true PG.I vote we have open tryouts in Kville.Surely there are players on campus that never got a look who can dribble the ball and pass.Slide Golden to the 2 spot.This could actually be a good team with Average guard play.We aren't even average at these spots.

I agree, we are getting the best out of what we have on the roster right now.If we had one of the greatest college coaches in the country, he probably would have won the Austin Peay game, but outside of that, we would have these same results..All i want is the team to continue to fight, and if they do that, i will be proud of them..

Feed the ball to the basket.Maymon and Stokes are both more talented then Golden.Those guys need to be Fed all night no matter if shots are falling.

We don't have many options but I would rather McBee have it over Golden there and that's hard to even say without puking but it's the truth. At the end of regulation CCM should have told Golden get the ball inside to Stokes or Maymon at all cost. All Georgia could do is foul. Going inside never crossed Golden's mind. To say "who else would you want in there to create" is a bit of a misnomer.
 
I think people being able to pass the ball effectively is more important then a dribble drive guard.Put the ball where it needs to be.That's at the rim,we attack the rim that opens the outside to knock down open three's instead of forcing them.
 
Oh and for the love of God,any player that is 6'9 or better that isn't named Chism don't shoot behind the arch.It's a wasted possession.
