| Turning Point in the Game
In the second half with around 10 or 12 minutes to go, we get the game tied. Insert McBee. Result: three consecutive open threes due to his ineptness at the defensive end. I'm sure he's a good kid, but he needs to see no minutes. |

| Hitting a big shot last year doesn't change what has happened since. I was for Pearl giving him his opportunity with a scholly this year. But I have to admit, there is such a huge dropoff at that position. Hopefully Bone will make a difference there. Maybe the lineup shifting that CBP mentioned in postgame is a more likely answer. But that all depends on whether Maymon cancarry the load starting at four so Harris can move to three.

Nevermind.
Seriously, I knew this kid was a bad idea when all the yokels got on their "well, a local kid will play better because he has pride for Tennessee" BS. Pearl succombed to the pressure and idiodically gave him a free ride for three years, then keeps playing him.
Otherwise, are you telling me that Jordan McRae can't play defense or shoot, either? At least we'd get a promising freshman who can offer a lot more than McBee. It just aggravates me that we have two and half more years of this crap. He's the Stephen Garcia of UT b-ball, a mediocre player who takes 15 years to go through the system. | |

| McRae couldn't possibly be worse defensively than McBee. And, if he can just not turn the ball over, he'd already be an improvement over McBee offensively. | |

Stupid comparison. | |

Will you bail me out if I agree to do it? | |
