Message: [QUOTE="champs99and04, post: 2250529, member: 488"] Not sure this is how I view the situation. It's difficult to compare the stats of a fourth year junior and a true freshman, especially when accounting for the trajectories of the players (Vital averaged 12 ppg on 44% from three in his final 14 games). I think it's safe to say - based on Anderson's 34% career mark from deep - that Vital has considerably more upside as a shooter and probably as an offensive player in general. Vital is going to play a lot, maybe as many as 35 minutes per game (he played 117 of a possible 120 minutes over three do-or-die games in Hartford to end the season). He's not a player whose minutes are going to be dictated by match-ups and he's surely not going to be platooning with Anderson. My impression is that Gilbert, Adams, and Vital will share the floor a lot and Anderson will scoop up the remaining minutes. [/QUOTE]
