The question for Martin is if he stays is there anything he can improve?


his post game
his jump shot
his ability to get to the rim off the dribble
his ability to finish at the rim when the dunk isnt there
his isolation defense (90% of whats played in the NBA)


unlike many, his game can grow. he is green. he is not limited like JOB or Mickey. He has perfect NBA measurables. He just needs time to get better at BASKETBALL

All of this. His athleticism is getting him by in college. He needs to stay to improve in all of these areas and become lottery after JR year.

All of this....especially the bold portion. One thing that impressed me about Tennessee is how they laid the ball high and soft off the glass when they attacked the rim.

The talent is absolutely there. It just needs a lot of refinement.

If he didn't have things to work on, then he'd be a top 5 pick. Every player goes into the league with a lot to work on. Martin will need to improve his 3 pt shot (down 6-7% from last year), but speed and strength will come regardless of him coming back or not.
