Need Elijah to get healthy so that Rose has at least 4 quality wings to rotate through three positions. I suspect Emery will have more a green light this year, but at times he goes Matt Carlino, chucking up bricks and Rose needs someone who can spell him.

Yoeli should give Rose the interior threat needed. Need two more guys who can defend, rebound, and make opponents pay if they ignore them. Neither Josh Sharp nor Nate Austin were primary scoring threats, but they could both get an extra put back, or clean cut to the rim to make opponents pay for ignoring them. My guess is that Andrus will be one of these bigs. Hope that Dastrup develops into the other. Love a big man who sees the floor.

The best teams always have a couple of guys who facilitate others. Noah Hartsock was such a facilitator until his senior year. Someone who does the dirty work and is efficient when they are left alone or the D sags away from them. The fact is that this team has as much or more talent than a variety of teams under Rose in the past. If things come together in the locker room then we could see some good success out of this group.
