Message: [QUOTE="SDjohn, post: 4825744, member: 4131"] It may turn out that way, but they will improve…and they will need to. I do not agree we don’t have a good center, just inexperienced. Benny missing is big, he is the second most important player this year, Judah clearly #1. Wish we knew when he comes uback but that will improve the D. Maliq doesn’t look quite 100% to me, still seems to get a ton of pokes and tips though. Also need to consider, this team was recruited with the zone as the primary D in mind. I think they struggle defensively throughout much of the early season. This is where the coaching staff and philosophy comes in. Assuming Benny is back soon, Westry gets healthy, another guy who can guard multiple positions, maybe then we see the defensive pressure, which I was REALLY hoping for. At least it’s a possibility with this team and coach, when was the last time we could say that? [/QUOTE]
