PS: Is Bourama Sidibe Syracuse's next unheralded center? (SU player evaluations)

[RF2044]

How can you know? You have seen one of them play in college.

But I have seen them play.

Also because I trust the opinions of other posters who have also watched them play, and who have expressed similar opinions about their respective games / limitations at this stage of their respective developmental curves.

Sorry if this opinion doesn't jibe with what you'd prefer to wish for.

We'd better hope not.

That might be the least complimentary trio of offensive players we will have marched out to start perhaps ever.

That's where it would hurt, far more than on the other end if the floor.

Thompson starting at Center would be the S.O.S signal for the season, imo. It would mean a) Chukwu and Sidibe not only aren't ready, but they suck royally, and/or b) Thompson can't play Forward in the zone. And if Thompson can't play the 4, then holy crap we're in trouble cuz he can barely play the 5 on defense.

TT/Brissett/Moyer would be 3 guys basically trying to do the same thing all at once on offense. Agreed that that's not a good thing.
