Message: [QUOTE="champs99and04, post: 2301175, member: 488"] We're going to miss all three of the seniors more than people realize. Facey was a very good two way player last season who would help us immensely this year, and even Purvis - the guy we should theoretically have the easiest time replacing because of our depth in the back court - gave us a lot of value defensively in his ability to guard three or four positions. We're going to miss his size and athleticism a lot defensively. We don't know if Vital is big enough to be an ideal fit at the three and we don't know if Gilbert can guard at all. Same goes for Larrier, whose loss last season was, in my opinion, overstated. I might take Facey over him if given the choice. We'll be better than last year, but it won't be an addition by subtraction thing. Pair this years back court with last years front court and I think you would have found a hell of a team. The major problems last season were the lack of a second ball-handler and coaching. [/QUOTE]
