true, we have a lot to prove this coming season...
...it's easy to say I think Lowell, Harward, Haarms, Wade, etc will all be really good but until we see it on the court it's hopeful thinking. We'll look like a very different team next year and be difficult for teams to match up with our guys. We need floor leaders to emerge and especially big shot guys to establish themselves like we had last year. But look at our offense, it's as much focused on good spacing and guys moving without the ball and good passing as it is with dribbling.

I'm willing to bet that this next season, now that we have depth at every position, we start seeing who ever gets the defensive rebound starts pushing the ball up the court to initiate the fast break and that we start seeing our guards push transition even when the opposing team makes a basket. We will have the bodies next year to play with a higher tempo and pressure the ball more and can handle guys picking up fouls better than last year. We'll also have rim protection that we didn't have last year.

We'll score 80+ pts per game this coming season as a team without having a 20 pts a game guy leading the charge. It will be very balanced and I'll bet our leading scorer doesn't break 15 pts a game.
