I am assuming you feel the defense got worse due to Maliq leaving. I get that he received votes for defensive player of the year, but I write that off to the steals he created. Great quick hands, but a real liability in terms of interior defense. Certainly not a rim protector and wasn't great at stopping penetration. Again, the proviso is staying healthy and with all ten contributing I expect improvement on the defensive end, certainly over the last two months. Team gave up over 80 ppg the last couple of months. How much worse can it get? And didn;' lose any three point shooting prowess with the departures. Would love another wing who can shoot 40% from the perimeter,  but even absent that we will add Freeman and Moore along with Carlos who shot 34% in limited attempts, Had the roster stayed intact last season it's not unreasonable to say we could have won 22-23 and ended up in the tournament. Just checked. My glass is half full and I do see reasons for a more optimistic outlook.
