He's not in the NBA's universe...

Mickey is softer. Martin had a bad offensive night . mickey had a decent offensive night but a horrible defensive night. The good news is not many sec teams have solid big guys that can give us problems. The basketball team needs a new s&c program very badly. our players looked weak compared to the uga players.

The JM's need at least another year in school just to get a little more polish, but most importantly, to get them both that much closer to a degree. They are not NBA material, as of now.

it doesn't look like either one saw a weight room at all since last season.

They both need to get a mean streak happening. So much potential but I'm not seeing a whole lot of chest. Hope they both turn it up a few notches from here on out. We need them to achieve.

martin, mickey and gray never get too excited. Mickey has no chance in the post vs a solid big that can get position and use a pump fake. He handles others post players that are athletic freaks like him but a fundamental player eats him alive.

Mickey got bigger but he can only put so much weight on a 6'8 frame before you start losing explosiveness

They padded their numbers on a weak non-conference schedule. It will be interesting to see how they perform now that they have to face real competition.

Neither looks NBA ready, but Mickey looks closer IMO. We'll see how they develop. Lots of season left.

I hate to agree with this "soft" bit, but it's unfortunately true of Martin and Mickey. Tigers will simply need to get these two big men to step up their game (soon)! As Shaq said on TV, these guys need to get a little "mean" with their play ...

Mickey and Martin both... We need some coaching!

Mickey plays NO defense...just tries to time blocks.
Martin is very soft and does not handle the ball well.

Been that way since he's been @ LSU
I said he was soft in the offseason and got ripped on here

CJJ was slightly better with sub's last night, but he was late to pull Martin and Mickey and he reinserted them less than 60 seconds later. CJJ also has to stop using Bridgewater as a PF, especially with Martin.

Shaq said he'd like to see them both get a little meaner. Me too.

Worst excuse I've heard in a long time.
These are college kids with fresh legs. This isn't the NBA, with older guys playing 82+ games per year.
We're only 15 games into our season. Two games per week isn't a problem for college players. College kids can play with intensity each night.
Stop with the ridiculous excuse-making.

Johnny Jones seems like a clone of Daddy. He can recruit like crazy, but the team is not well-coached at all.
