Great post RF.  I'm attempting to pump the breaks on the sky is falling myself since it was just one game.  I'm not saying that is what you are doing.  The one thing I disagree on is the importance of #1 vs #2.  I think #2 will sort itself out since we have people that will end up with roles and with the amount of new kids we have there is going to be some improvement over the first 30-45 days worth of games in my opinion, especially as kids get used to playing together in games.  My bigger concern is how lost Battle looked and how bad Gillon was (especially with the jumping in the air and not knowing what he was doing thing).  I know it was one game and Battle especially will improve and hopefully gain confidence I can't help but think we are putting a lot of pressure on Howard to play well every night.  I personally always saw White as a catch and shoot guy and was never expecting any driving and such from him.  I was hoping he would play the 3 almost the whole time.  I was really relying on Battle having a big year and Gillon being solid for 15-20 minutes a game.  If that isn't happening I have long term concerns.  We simply have to get more out of Battle and Gillon.  I'm not worried about 3 and 4 at all myself.  I think 4 was an aberration and 3 is what it is.
