This team clearly has issues.

1. Scoring - we are struggling and that is with Bell playing above his head. Hope Chris has really made the jump, but that remains to be seen. Benny came in on fire and then.......poof...vanished.  Pretty clearly Judah needs to be hot for this team to generate any consistent O. Not enough trey shooters for sure.
2. Rebounding - When Justin is your most effective rebounder....nothing more to be said.
3. Brown - He is a nice player. Does a bit of everything, but I was hoping to see some off season improvement in rebounding or scoring or both. I am seeing the same player as last season.
4. McLeod - very good shot blocker, but doesnt do anything else. I guess my delusion that he  could at least sometimes be the player that ate up Jesse for a half last season is just that......a delusion. What a difference Jesse would have made.
5. JJ - not terrible, but not what I was hoping for....at least so far.
6. Cope and Cuffe - we need at least one of them to be impactful off the bench every game.
7. Red - he is trying to mix it up and find combos both in terms of which D is being played and which players are on the floor. That will take awhile.

So, if there is to be upside, where will it come from ? - We need consistency from Judah. I do not think Benny will ever be consistent, but we will need "good" Benny the majority of the time. Bell's improvement needs to be real. Justin cant have o'fers from try range. Somehow, we need to develop a toughness that this team lacks.
