I would KILL for 8ppg from Chukwu.  Heck, 4 or 5 would work.  If Sidibe gets stronger and picks up the defense quickly then perhaps he starts.  I could see him becoming a Boucher type from Oregon.  Chukwu I am not counting on, however.

Getting Tucker is really important.  Another shooting threat as mentioned above.  If Frank can just be serviceable (assuming he stays) then that would be big for stability at that position.  Hopefully Howard Washington's learning curve is fast if Frank does fail otherwise we are counting on more of those combo types (if Ayala or Duarte come) to handle the rock which I am getting tired of depending on.

I still see a bubble team as the ceiling even if Tyus is really good and Frank is ok.  Too many raw types at the 4/5 and too many young guards.  We have potentially limited outside shooting and not a lot of scoring in the paint.  That's a bad mix and the scheme on offensive isn't creative enough to overcome that.  Who knows what will happen moving forward as the roster is obviously not close to being settled yet.  I just hope the staff knows what they're doing.
