I look at it three ways:

starting lineup if not in November then probably by January
Howard (natural point guard, best passer, longest in the system, prototypical size for SU guard)
White (I know, I know - he's really a 3, but there is not much difference between a 2 & a 3 on offense and he should be able to man the top of the zone on D)
Lydon 
Roberson
Coleman
Battle is 6th man

closing lineup in tight games
Howard
Battle
White
Roberson
Lydon

Minutes
Guards:  Howard 28, Battle 28, White 14, Gillon 10
Forwards:  Lydon 34, Roberson 28, White 18 (maybe these adjust downward & Battle gets some minutes here as well)
Centers:  Coleman 25, Chukwu 15, Lydon *
(Lydon won't play enough minutes at C to average anything over the course of 35-40 games, but based on last year, I think he will play the position late in close games when we need our best offensive team on the floor)

I am not as high on Gillon as many others seem to be.  If anything, I think his minutes decrease as we face tougher competition.
