Here we go Bruce

Time to earn that $2 mil. You have a group of players that tend to underachieve against less talented squads, but now is not the time to let that happen. Time to bring out the 5 star player in Scotty Hopson and persuade Wayne into being the best player in the tournament(which he can be). The regular season(meaningless in the grand scheme) is over and we have our seed, so now take the sham of a seed we got and make sure to flip off the committee members when you walk off the court after smoking SDSU like a Cuban cigar(hopefully). GBO

agreed. if our players truly feel shafted, they need to man up and make a run into the tourney. we have the talent, but i dont know if we have the smarts...

I believe you're on your own with that one, because we'd in effect be South Carolina if that were the case.

Under Bruce, Tennessee has always done the most damage as an underdog. A 6 seed pretty much puts us as an underdog to make any kind of noise in the tournament

No offense to Chism, who's obviously good, but what makes you think he's the best player in the tournament?

CAN be. Going into the tournament Evan Turner is the best player in it, but Wayne's got the skill set to break out

And here's why I say it, it's about the questions: Will Wayne body up in the paint and scrap for the boards or will he stand around hoping for it to fall in his lap? Will he float the perimeter or will he get on the defenders hip and go to work in the paint, and hope to get to the foul line a lot? If he is aggressive, Wayne alone can carry this team
