Nice optimism, but usually the more questions a team has about a roster, the worse the  year will be.

Joseph had the worst season as a PG we've had since probably the mid-90s.  Cooney is streaky and will probably not be any more dependable a shooter than he has shown in his past 3 seasons.  Mike is an excellent role player but not a starting PG, not a great shooting 2G and not a great rebounding SF.  Coleman has been hurt 3 years in a row and is our starting center.  Obokoh wasn't good enough to play for a team that didn't have a second center.

Of the incoming kids, we have Lydon, who is the type of player who usually thrives on another team - a Notre Dame stretch 4.  When have we ever featured a kid like that?  Frank Howard is our next PG who has never played PG before.  Diang will probably be our biggest contributor, just because of the lack of options at center.

Richardson has the tools to be a terrific player, but with Cooney and G in front of him, unless Joseph spends a lot of time on the bench, or we play really small, he's probably not going to see more than 15-2o minutes a game - and he could be our best player.
