Message: [QUOTE="orangefan13, post: 247186, member: 906"] Just doing a quickchecklist... We will bring a tough defense just like this year. We will have a good guard defender who can extend in MCW to replace Dion. We will have better rebounding then this year. We will not have quite as good of turnover protection but we will have solid ball handlers. We will have some post moves. We will finally have a big who can play off the dribble if not a couple. We will have guards that can attack the paint we lose Dion and Scoop but MCW and Triche will still bring it. Maybe even Cooney. We will most likely have a better three point shooter in Cooney although Dion came on pretty strong. Same with James. We will have a better three point shooter at SF in James although we have to replace KJO off the dribble that could be a challenge and has to be Fairs Job. Grant is in the mix also. We will finally be able to go tall at the four for offensive boards, and if we grab Noel or Rak steps up we will be able to interchange our bigs in the high and low post. We haven't done that since the 1980's if I had to venture. Quite a stat. We will be really deep again but worry about depth with injuries some without Noel or a 4th guard. We bring the experience with Triche and Southerland as seniors Fair, Keita as Jrs. 4 upperclassmen. I think we will be a pretty good FT shooting team but DC Rak and Keita could use some work I imagine. I do worry about DC's conditioning would like to get him up to the speed of the college game get him out to some legal college level camps in the offseason to get him ready. I think this team could have more balence then this years on the offensive end and really convert in the halfcourt and we already know our transition status. Really there is reasons to think this team next year could be better then this years even. I think the balence could be there and will be better on the offensive end. [/QUOTE]
