Message: [QUOTE="RuffRuff, post: 5348436, member: 1268"] They don't mean everything but they mean something. StJ has a group of guys that played last year, so the model should be fairly on point. How Uconn is better is pretty clear for anyone that is paying attention. In addition to returning minutes: Playing a Center in Reed that actually outplayed Zubi in their matchups last year (take a look at box if you can't remember), that's had a year in the system and committed to as starter. Very high upside. We started a guy last year that couldn't rebound. Flexing AK back into more of a role playing position Ball with another year under his belt after his first year as a starter/getting real minutes 2 PGS, when we had 1/2 of one last year - we had no on ball creation at all last year Another 5 star 3 better built for the UConn system, and can defend. McNeeley ended up being reckless as a primary creator and couldn't defend a road cone. Deep bench, when we had nothing last year. I'm not taking away anything from StJ potential as it's an experiment and unknown at this point. Don't have much other than the roster, some Pitino bites and Rothstein's take. My guess is they'll be a work in progress for a couple months before we understand what they are. [/QUOTE]
