Poor help on defense. MPJ didn’t challenge the UGA player (on at least 2 occasions) after the player got past his defender and into the lane. He is still learning.
Puyear, Robertson and Barnett sucked. Worst game I saw each of them play in a long time. Don’t know why, but suspect it had to do with so much attention on MPJ - by the media, fans and even Martin. Showed a lack of maturity. That can’t happen again.
Seeing how MPJ lacks the leg strength, and movement, I think it would be a mistake to heavily rely on him. Need Jontay, Puryear and Robertson to play well. If Geist can contribute 8 points and 6 rebounds that would be a plus.
Finally, Robertson has to stop with the turnovers (dribbling off his foot, or a wild cross-Court pass). Those kind of turnovers kill momentum. And we need better from the guard position.
