Agree Girard's minutes will come down - Richmond doesn't get sped up and gives us an immediate threat to get to the rim or dime one of our shooters. I wouldn't even be surprised to see a crazy small-ball lineup of Kadary, JG3, Buddy, Griffin and Merek.

But back to reality of the ACC, I have a different take at forward. The whole point of bringing in Anselem is to have a physically-capable guy to spell Sidibe so that Merek doesn't have to play OOP . Sure he can play the middle in spots. But the majority of the time in conference games we'll need him at PF and not sitting on the bench with 4 fouls. Guerrier is a capable rebounder, but since he's limited offensively I don't see his minutes ballooning. At SF, I expect Griffin to be a good player. But a healthy Bras brings more size and good outside shooting - assuming his legs are healthy enough to play defense and rebound. With that assumption this is how I see it:

Guard Rotation: JG3 30; Buddy 33; Kadary 17.
Forward Rotation: Merek 28-Guerrier 18; Griffin 25-Bras 9
Center: Sid 27; Anselem 13
