CMack said on the radio interview that he personally told JMart that the game last night was a "players game" and that he wanted him to have an aggressive mindset. Maybe J has been over thinking it. We've all said that when X gets into a press and he is just acting rather than thinking he plays better. Maybe this is the key.

If you notice, when Jmart makes a shot it's IMMEDIATELY after he touches the ball. No dribbling, no thinking. Just get it and fire it up. That's the mentality the staff should keep giving him. If you're open and you get it in rhythm, fire away. This should go for every player on the team. The more we dribble, the more dumb turnovers we tend to have.

I didn't take any time to read this thread. Just saw the title.
With that said I an so happy for JMart and I hope he is turning the corner.
I hope the end of the Evansville game and last night gives him the confidence to finish his career on a great note.
Really proud if him last night.

JMart has played UC couple times before and maybe he got more pumped-up for this rivalry than the other games.

Hopefully he can use this game to get the confidence to just go out and play. Don't think too much, just play. What we saw last night was a Justin Martin that wanted the ball, wanted to take the shot, and didn't hesitate. He will be an absolute load for other teams to defend if he keeps playing with that same level of aggression. It truly was a thing of beauty.

Reminds me of 2 years ago after the brawl when he went into the student section and started celebrating... Or when he created zip em up for the team lol.
I think J-Mart just looked like he was having fun out there honestly, and that's a big deal. He was aggressive, hit free throws, played pretty good defense. He didn't look like he was overthinking anything, and as a result, he puts up a career type of night. I think if he has a good game at Alabama, we could see a huge improvement through out the season for Justin!
