Loved watching Maliq play, but honestly don't see his production as being irreplacable. He had one freak stat for a big - steals. He is an above average rebounder and a strong finisher, but his offensive game was limited and his interior defense (granted playing out of position) was weak. It would be a huge disappointment if Freeman doesn't at least match his contribution, Add in Lampkin and Davis with a returning Bell and I can't imagine the front court won't be greatly improved.

I was not critical of Judah and see him as being the one major loss but will accede to the masses lamenting the lack of a "true point guard." Judah's ability to drive and score at the rim or draw fouls when the offense broke down will be missed. Unless the offense doesn;t break down!

Struggle to see the inability to see that the roster going into 2024-25 is already stronger than the one coming out of 2023-24, but I guess that what makes for good offseason discussions.

Well, didn't really lose any three point shooters. And Moore carries a reputation as a lethal perimeter threat. Freeman has show his ability in All Star games and late in the season. Carlos, while not a sniper shot 34%, better than anyone on last year's team (with at least one attempt per game) except Bell. 
That's what we averaged the last two months of the season. 79 ppg over the entire conference schedule. Only Louisville was worse.
In both areas, it's like Bob Dylan said. "If you ain't got nothin', you've got nothin' to lose."

I choose to be a glass half full guy. Makes for a much more enjoyable summer.
