Ifs and buts, candy and nuts, but this is yet another game we would have won easily with Maymon on the floor.
The McBee experiment has to be over. Watching him try to chase around UK's guards was just pitiful. All he can do defensively is foul, and he's not quick enough to create his own shot. He does give his all for Tennessee, but we need wins more than we need maximum effort from minimal players. Starting five should be Golden/Richardson/McRae/Hall/Stokes, with Yemi, Moore, Reese, and possibly Lopez rounding out the rotation.
I really don't like Stokes' body language right now. I'm starting to buy into this theory that he's having conflict with the coaching staff. He's too talented to play this poorly. Yeah, he got jobbed on some foul calls, but that's the reality of playing in Rupp as a visiting team.
