[QUOTE="MtnWasp, post: 702299, member: 4110"] I see three big questions for next season: 1. Can Alvarado and Devoe stay healthy for an entire season? Both players have been fragile thus far. While it is nice in theory to say we should have depth, there is no way that we realistically can expect that there would be no drop-off with them not on the court. We need them both to make the NCAAT. 2. How do we defend the post? Yl and I will go back and forth on this all off-season, I suppose. I just don't see Moses Wright as an adequate strong side post defender. He looks out of place bellying-up players establishing post position. I think Wright is a natural face-up player and that if we try to develop him as a back to the basket player then we will be pushing rocks up hill and it will be a step backward. We'll have to see what kind of post roster additions we add this Spring. But even if the only thing we ask Gigiberia is to stand in the middle of the paint with his arms strait up my be an option for no other reason than it allows Wright to play his more natural position. 3. Depth. Can the Freshmen play? Can the staff upgrade the talent level over last year via the Freshmen and Spring roster acquisitions? I know there is some banter about landing a transfer PG with more than one year of eligibility remaining for this Spring. I think this could hurt our chances of landing a high school pG from the class of 2021. Leaning heavily on transfers can be a self-perpetuating strategy. I don't think we need to be looking to be turning over the PG position every couple of years so, I prefer to land a high school player at that position for 2021. If you need to bring in a transfer to babysit the Freshman PG for a year, I would bring one in next Spring, not this Spring. Whether or not Maxwell projects to be a lead guard is another wild-card on this topic. I like Maxwell's scoring ability but he will need some major work on conditioning to defend on the ball in the ACC. We need to land at least two 4-star players from the class of 2021 this Fall.
