Message: [QUOTE="reedny, post: 1503659, member: 1423"] He's also versatile enough to play the 4 on defense (3 on offense) ... and defense is a concern. Last year, our perimeter defense was sieve-like, creating havoc for our inside defenders and opportunities for the other team. The same perimeter guys will start again this year, although I expect some improvement. If we struggle with perimeter defense, opposing guards will again get in the lane and create problems inside. And once that happens, we're less athletic, thinner and less experienced than last year. This is one reason why having G up top is not ideal. After the shot goes up, Roberson's a talented rebounder for his size. DC2's a beast on the boards, and he appears to be healthy and moving well. But interior defense, depth and athleticism are concerns .. and minutes (size and rebounding) from a talented kid like Lydon could help. [/QUOTE]
