If our players aren't happy up by 19, then that's on them. Regardless of coaching, it is fun to win. I thought most of them looked fine, but McRae needs to get over himself if he isn't happy. The thing is that this team needs him, but he doesn't have to go off for 30 for us to win.

No doubt, and I agree 100%.

And you can bet Martin has atleast taken notice, and at the end of the day this is his job and life. If he has to tell McRae to quit shooting so much, and split McRae's/Stokes time on the floor together then so be it.

We didn't play "uptempo" tonight, we played inside out like we should've been all year and the offense was damn near flawless. 8 turnovers is right back to where we wanna be, hit open 3s, could've been better from the line...but all in all our best all around game in quite awhile.

Martin was asked why McRae was benched early in the 2nd half. He said there was nothing to it. He was just going with guys that were giving them energy. McRae is a pouter and when he isn't getting 15-20 shots, he seems to get pissy. It's unfortunate that he still hasn't grown up.

If the stats are correct, I don't think McRae attempted a shot in the 2nd half. He was 2-5 from the field.

McRae doesn't like the attention that Stokes gets over him. Listen to Stokes interview after this game. He tells you what the problem was.

It's clear to anyone watching with their eyes open that McRae wants to be he hero. When he doesn't have that opportunity he's more sloppy than usual.

Got blown by a couple times defensively as well, one thing about Richardson and Moore (his replacements) are that they'll give you 100% defensively.

Man Richardson was getting tore up the Missouri game. Shut up with dogging Mcrae.

One game and people just dog pile on the guy.

The only time I've seen Mcrae show a bad attitude is when they are losing or have lost.

McRae has done better since his meltdown as a freshman, but he still whines to refs and pouts. I can't stand that part of his game.

I love Moore, but I cringe every time he takes a jump shot. His role is defense and bringing energy off the bench. He needs at least 10 minutes a game. The loudest cheer of the night was when he made that great block. Then Martin proceeds to call a timeout to quieten the crowd down.

That was a great block, just getting there was straight up hustle on Moore's part.

Richardson gave Jabari Brown fits, so nice try. Richardson is also being mentioned as likely member off all-sec defensive team, haven't heard that for McRae, so nice try.

If you didn't see McRae's attitude tonight then I guess you weren't watching, and haven't been watching all year. He complains about calls more than any player I've seen, which is why he gets no calls.

Lmao that wasn't why he called the timeout. Moore was in the cameras and slow getting back, said afterwards wanted to make sure he was ok as well as set up a good look to end the half.

Martin has been criticized for giving away points at the end of the half, we closed the half without giving UGA a chance to score, and we got 2 good looks. I'll take it.

Oh, I know, I was being facetious, but it was ironic that he immediately called a timeout.

I don't know about the 2 good looks. We jacked up a 3 and Stokes tried to get the put back. I would've rather we worked the ball into Stokes. He couldn't be stopped tonight.

Who doesn't complain about calls?

8-12 for 24 points. He straight tore him up.

I also love how it is just Mcrae that isn't passing to Jarnell. You are a fool.

I agree, but Barton's man sagged off and he had been hot, not a horrible shot.

The ball was already moved up court, It wasn't immediate.

Really though, why in the world does he call these horribly planned timeouts to kill the momentum?
