True. Our front court players are going to do more of
The scoring this year than last year. A healthy Rodney Rice is going to open things up for Catoor and hopefully make Pedulla more patient and selective.
And Kidd’s offense around the rim is not what’s kept him off the court. He’s going to get buckets when he’s out there.
Individually, Long and Beran are likely not as good as the guys they replace. But collectively, our D should be better and I think they are a better fit for what CMY is hoping to do offensively.
Rebounding might be a concern but we’ve largely held our own with undersized bigs for a long time.
