I care more about the disappearing acts at the end of the year. And be lit up rtl last year as well.

I agree with most of this. He is a scorer but not a shooter. That's my point. He has to change his shooting percentage to be high scorer in the SEC. I never said he couldnt score. I said he can't shoot! There is a difference. Great players do both. McRae with a jumper is a scary player.

I think he will too and if he does, it will be a huge year for our vols.

I shot 18/21 from 3 and had 65 points out of 160 in a pickup game a year ago, and I'm barely six feet and white.

I wasn't bragging about it. I was saying on any night a shooter can get hot. Doing it in what is essentially a pick up league of current and former players is nothing to be proud of. Because if an in athletic, non d1 athlete like me can score 65 and have better shooting percentage in a pick up game, then hearing him score 60 in a crappy summer league where no defense is played should not be a shocker to people.

I would wager that the defense played in RTL is 10 times more intense than whatever you pickup game you played.

You would be highly surprised how seriously former graduates of "good" high school teams take pick up games, especially with crowds bigger than some of those games to watch. Somethign about "reliving the glory days," double for those guys who weren't even smart enough to get into college.

Fair enough, but I wish people would stop saying there's no defense. Because there definitely is.

There is pretend D. No legit D is played in the RTL.

Seems like there's a difference in opinion between the people that actually go there and those that don't.

I've been. It's a travesty to call anything in that gym a defense.

I've been and think that is very little defense at all

Not if but when this kid drops 30 against an sec opponent then we can say I told you he was a baller. Until then , he's just "potential"
