[QUOTE="YlJacket, post: 803853, member: 2784"] My guess/bet is that the staff would like to plug Saba into the Lammers type of role on offense and use him as a distributor and pick/pop guy while Howard is more of a Banks type of player who needs the ball close to the basket. I assume Meka is like Howard in this regard but that remains to be seen. If he can earn minutes, I expect the goal with Saba is to have him spread the floor. Beyond the 5, if Coleman is as advertised and wins the 3 spot, we would have more shooting there than last year - and less ability for teams to play off of Moore. On the other side, I am not sure either of our potential replacements for Jose can shoot or finish as well as he did last year (hope I am wrong). Last year we were 4th in scoring in the ACC and first in FG % overall, while we were only 8th in 3PT % and middle of the pack in 3PT shots attempted. Point being we were a take it to the rim offense last year with Jose and Usher leading the way in that regard. The recruiting that has been done seems to be a lot more focused on shooting - especially 3 point shooting - and I expect they will change the offense in some way to reflect that. Or stated another way, we are going to have to create more perimeter/3PT jumpers for Devoe and Coleman to replace the points we got from Jose and Moses in and around the paint. I expect it will be some new wrinkles and potentially new scheme involved. Hope so as this will be a new and different team. [/QUOTE]
