Message: [QUOTE="cuse10, post: 2553384, member: 5920"] You honestly never know what they would have brought to the table. [LIST] [*]Geno was playing on an ankle that hadn't healed fully and longer than usual because of his medical condition. His frustration took over and he left the team a month into the regular season. Who knows what he would have brought to the table fully healthy. You don't average 15 PPG in high major basketball by accident. [*]Taurean Thompson would have provided much needed offense down low and would have taken the load off of Battle's shoulders. Of course, his calling card was his lack of defense and was a prominent figure on one of the worst defenses Cuse ever put on the floor. Would he have gotten better defensively in year two? [/LIST] Hard to say if they would have been a tournament team. Yeah, you're looking at games where SU lost by a basket, but you forget the flaws of Thompson especially could have cost them more games. [/QUOTE]
