That all looks pretty good to me. Really exciting to having this much quality depth. I mean, being able to look at a guy as talented as Akok and say, "well, if he isn't ready we're good....". I'll be interested to see how starting PG shakes out. Will Cole unseat last year's starter? Also at C, does Carlton get back his form and unseat Whaley? Everyone involved will find their minutes.

What I'm hoping to see is that Bouk's 3-pt shooting has gone from OK to above average and that Cole can hit them too. Ability to score from three is one nagging question I might have.

I love the "beasting and feasting" that someone posted. A great description for what I think our frontcourt can do. We've to length, girth and some shotblocking. Rebounding looks like it should be a real strength.

Perhaps the one area I am outright concerned about is perimeter defense. This is where the loss of CV might hit us the most not to mention Gilbert. Can Cole get it done at this level? How much will Gaffney and Bouk be improved in this regard? We need to force missed threes so we can gobble up all those rebounds.
