I completely agree. My assessment was what needs to change to see this team get better. Mickey and Martin are the biggest reason we are in 2nd in the SEC. But that doesn't mean there aren't things that can improved upon.

I didn't read the whole thread and I don't know who is bashing whom…what I do know is that if this team does not commit to being a better defensive team for 40 minutes, then this season will not have a happy ending. Other teams get WAY too many easy baskets close to the goal. A lot of it is due to guards penetrating, some of it is due to our bigs being "out-physicaled". Stretches of bad defense has bitten this team in the arse a couple of times (Texas A&M and Missouri) and has come close to doing so a couple of other times (Vandy, Georgia). I don't see this team having the mindset of "nobody is getting to the rim on us, no matter what"…and it is disturbing. The guys need to take more pride in defending.

Martin makes himself shorter when he attacks the rim. He doesn't elevate over the defense (unless he has a dunk) or put arc on his shot. He could be soooooo good if he learns to utilize the high, soft shot.
