i mean...yeah...who the 11 are is more important than the sheer number of players...obviously.

BUT

it is precisely who the 11 are that has me worried. there's only like 2 bigs on the roster...one coming off foot surgery...and didnt show he was ready for primetime last year

the other positions...and who is filling them... aren't going to matter...if there's no one over 6'9 to put on the floor (which is a very realistic scenario with this roster, as is, unfortunately)

in theory, 11 players might be enough...but I would aay you'd def need at least 3 bigs (if not more) to be secure for a full season...

i suppose...if you got the 11 right...that's all you need

but that's not the current situation with this 11...

and furthermore, even if it was, i'd still fill out the roster for insurance...(in case someone gets kicked off the team...or has to have foot surgery...or blows a ligament...or all 3)

there's so much riding on the season and ability to field a competitive team...i just cannot fathom leaving holes on a roster that are allowed to be filled.

even if #12 and #13 arent great players ...so what...theyre ging to be better than walkons...and that extra size will be vital...if it is needed at some point.
