How often are we really playing 3 on 5 this year?  Really only when Coleman and Roberson are playing together (and I think Tyler is a little bit of a stretch, I think he's a fine role player on offense).  Cooney, for all his warts, can shoot the ball decently.  I agree with RF, Mike would have been amazing, even better than he was, if he didn't need to handle the ball so much.

Honestly, the reliance on the 3 doesn't bother me all that much; you can take lots of 3's and still have a really good offense.  I would definitely like to have more of a low post threat though.  I think we'll get some more of that out of Lydon next year (especially when he's being guarded by more 3's and 4's)

In 2013 and 14 we were around top 35 in offense (52 right now).  That's fine, but if you want to be a true national title contender you generally need around the top 10.  (Top 10 in 2010 and 12, #14 in 2003).

One thing I was just wondering even before reading this thread; I do wonder a little what the rotations are going to look like next year (WHY ARE WE TALKING ABOUT NEXT YEAR RIGHT NOW??).  I'm assuming Chukwu has no game outside the paint (correct me if I'm wrong), I wonder if you want to spend a lot of minutes with him and Roberson, who at least right now doesn't have a lot of an outside game either.  This is all a long way of saying I wonder if Roberson's minutes may be limited next year.
