I am fully on board still but I do think Fab brought to us a lot of intangibles that didn't show up in the box score.  He was usually good for 2-3 charges a game that not only prevented points but got us to the bonus sooner and got the other team in foul trouble sooner.

In addition to blocking shots which prevented points he also altered shots consistently.  I would estimate maybe 4-5 shots a game altered in addition to his 3 blocks.

We can overcome the loss of Fabs rebounds and blocks and maybe even points.  I wonder if we can overcome the altered shots and charges that we won't get.  That may be the hardest proposition.  The four players with the most untapped additional potential for us who could help us overcome are in my opinion Rak, CJ, JS, and MCW.  We are obviously going to need all of our regulars playing well and these four to make some additional contributions.  Not sure what Baye can bring us honestly.

We can do it!  It'll be fun to watch how our guys respond.
