I think Howard and Battle have a strong bond and love playing the top of the zone together. This year they will benefit greatly from the addition of scorers in JC, Buddy, Hughes and Sidibe.

Just having a bench is a huge factor in what options the coach has. Some people just don’t appreciate that the team played through injuries, huge minutes, no bench and often 2 guys on the floor who were little threat to score.

I also think it’s important to note that even when Sidibe played, he was hobbled. We haven’t really seen him at full strength yet. He’s gonna crush it this year. We will have a guy in the post. Frank will get him the ball. And maybe Chu will be more efficient with more rest.

I see our 3pt shooting improving. Frank and Tyus should get better shots with the continual improvement of Oshae, Marek, and Sidibe offensively. I see Hughes spotting up from the corner, JC/Buddy coming off the jb double low screen, even Marek pick n pop might be worth trying.

Oh and Buddy can shoot from pretty much anywhere on the floor. Coach says he will play, we shall see. I expect JC to get minutes regardless of how well Howard and Battle play. Marek’s confidence grew as the season went on and I expect he will be even more aggressive this year. We’ve already talked about Oshae. Things will open up offensively.
