Bone or McBee for Backup 2?

[LawVol13]

I say Bone, and it's not close. McBee hasn't shown any consistency in his shot, and that's the only thing he brings to the table. Bone, through his defensive ability, could not even take a shot and be an upgrade, imo.

Ill take choice number 3

I cant believe Mcmiss was even a choice.

Is this a serious thread or an attempt at comedy?

Nice! I like that.

McBee should only be on the floor during mop up roll.

[CWGvol]

McBee and Pearl should never see the floor except mop up, and Williams is getting there!

IMO there is no comparison. McBee just isn't there. He makes mistakes that cost us points and doesn't help us out on offense. He shouldn't be on the floor at all.

Wait a second its way too early to be bringing Bone in. I want him to be the guy but he has had a broken wrist for awhile now. Now he has been cleared, he is going to have to stay in Pratt Pavilion overtime to get his shot back. I would venture he would be very rusty if he came in firing now.

I want McBee to succeed and have not given up on him yet. He just needs to settle down and start hitting those 3's in games like he does in practice. Bone has played some hard core minutes and hit some key baskets in NCAA games and proven himself as a competent back up. That being said, I doubt he will just throw off the cast and start playing at that level this week. I think McBee keeps his spot if he can hit some 3 pointers in relief otherwise its Bone by the time the SEC schedule come around.

Did Bone break the wrist on his shooting hand or off-hand?

Bone.

Better defender, would give us another ballhandler on the floor, and he's about as reliable as McBee from outside.

McBee for a week and then Bone when he is 100% healthy and mid-shape form

There seems to be a group of people that think McBee is a really good player. For example, a couple weeks ago, one of our esteemed posters explained that McBee should be playing over Trae Golden. I was curious if others shared a similar opinion.

Did anyone ever make a joke about Josh's name in relation to his injury? Damn....we could have been calling him the Broken Bone all this time lol. I don't like Skylar, never have, but he's not the worst player in the world; there was no one better to play back up 2 on our roster up to this point. I would imagine that if Bone really is healthy enough, he'll get around 10 mins for the first couple games, maybe more if he's that effective.

No matter what happens, the TBA crowd will bow at McBee's feet and will be ready to explode any time he puts a shot up. He is the one player who can get away with any stupid shot that our team jacks without criticism (at TBA anyway). I think it's wrong that the crowd cheers way louder for certain players, and I hate to play this card, but it seems to have a lot to do with the color of their skin.

Whatever. I don't care. I know that I cheer loud for any good play and I do my damndest to get the dumbass student section up when we need them. If there are any students reading this, do you realize that if you want to get into the game, you should cheer loudly when we're on defense? Especially when we're down. This always seems to be the opposite. When we're getting beat, the crowd feels like they have nothing to cheer for, but that's exactly when we need them to be at their loudest. Have you ever watched a Duke, KU, or UNC home game? Those students understand what to do correctly.
