We have a bottom third of the conference frontcourt. We have no center. Even before McLeod was injured he was playing 10 MPG because outside of shot blocking he can't guard anyone who moves. Kudos to Brown for his effort in moving out of his natural PF position to play C because we have nobody else. But Brown should not be a center for any team that doesn't have DC and Anthony at the forwards. Our forwards? Yikes. Bell is miscast. He's a 3 point sniper who should come off the bench for 15 minutes, 20 in the games he's really on. He's a poor defender and zero rebounder. He has to play major minutes for this team because we have no other threat that has to be guarded. So he helps spacing. When he's off the court we have no spacing. Taylor lacks ACC athleticism and he needs an inordinate amount of space and time to get his shots off. He reminds me of the kind of guy we would see on a decent mid major back in the JB zone days who would roast us with 7-15 from the arc because he would get all open shots with no defender in his grill. Unfortunately nobody in the ACC plays zone. Benny? Great athleticism but just doesn't have the skills and it's year 3 so no more waiting on "potential".

Red must get this team a legit center from the portal for next year and not just run the same guys back again. And please also get SF who can shoot and help on the boards too. Yes, Freeman and Moore are 2 real good gets and will be upgrades but we have to add more than that.
