[QUOTE="glandon1960, post: 401291, member: 2458"] The rest of this season will be a grind at best most nights. Limited by depth and inconsistent 3-point shooting primarily. Hoping to win 1, if luck falls 2 rest of the way. I will be at the three remaining home games - all I expect is to see a team play hard and compete ... and see some progress from Cole/Wright. Not sure this team gets to 50 on the road vs. UVA ... I do think they will beat 28 up there. Next season, I expect to see more up tempo and free flowing offense. What I recall from watching Memphis was they wanted to push the ball when possible ... and CJP has said he wants to play considerably faster than they have these last two years ..... I think we'll START to see that next year as the perimeter pieces to do it will be there, with it speeding up a little more the following year to where I think he wants the pace of play to be. I do expect to see the team continue to mix defenses - he did that at Memphis (but played more zone here) .... and I feel we miss Lammers more on Defense (protecting the rim, altering shots, etc.) than we will on offense. I like the pieces we will have on perimeter - Jose/Josh/CGB/Phillips/Devoe ... with Alston probably relegated deeper into the bench. Jose/Josh start for sure - CGB or Devoe at the other guard spot. Phillips backs up Jose, with Jose also swinging to the shooting guard for some minutes on occasion. We might see some of Cole or Sjouland on the wing ... depends on how ready they are - but having them play there won't likely be a requirement next year. AD likely starts at the 5 - but we do need someone to fill in behind him .... that can hit boards, play good defense, and is at least a threat inside ... could be Ogbondo (but have not seen anything from him this season to say it will be him), could be Grad Transfer ... I am not fan of Grad Transfers as core strategy (a la Gregory) but I do like using them to fill a one year hole ... and they MUST land 1-2 quality bigs in the next recruiting class. AD has gotten better passing from the high post, but his strength is low post play - he is our best big down there already. I agree with everyone that the 4 spot/stretch 4 - is the question mark. Cole/Wright/Sojuland .... will one of them prove they are solid ACC caliber player. We don't need one of them to be great next year, but having one (or more) we can put out there and know we'll get quality minutes most nights is essential - else small ball - which we'll see some of anyway depending on matchups .... does anyone really object to seeing Jose/CGB/Devoe/Josh on court together for a few minutes?
