I think Dordevic simply does some things that other players cannot do - two plays from his freshmen year always stand out to me. 1) The one handed goal he scored against Notre Dame in the dome and 2) that juke/shimmy that faked a UVA defender off the screen like he was James Harden.  He's not the fastest, or the biggest, or the strongest, but you also can't point to any of those attributes and say they are lacking either.  He definitely needs to work on his shot (he almost always shoots low) and his assist totals really should improve. Maybe if they implement a two-man game with Scanlan, it would improve.

I've been thinking of what my expectations for the offense are in terms of production. I would expect Dordevic to score something like 25-10. I think its reasonable to expect Trimboli to do his usual 25-10 as well. Given Curry's passing ability and his speed, I actually think he could reach a 20-20 type season if all goes well.  He was on track for that before he seemed to hit a wall at the end of the year. For Lipka and Buttermore, I wonder a bit if their production might drop - maybe 17 and 5 for Buttermore and 15 and 5 for Lipka? I feel like Desko might become more reliant on the first midfield as the season goes on, but we'll see.  I think I'm being pretty modest in my forecasting here, so hopefully these numbers will be much higher by the end of the season.
