    Re: Our biggest problem

    I am not sure some of these players get much better. Look at our seniors and they have barely improved.

    From this point forward, I think Boozer has biggest upside followed by DG. Next tier for potential improvement is JVB, CB, Buck, Mann, Eik. Next tier is Lucca, Ham, et al. Hope to be proven wrong a year from now, but if two players come in and take all the minutes it will have been proven true.

    If we had more athleticism I could see more improvement, but that is not the case. So we must settle for great team play and solid decision making. Can McD transform this group into playing that way? That is why the fans have become so apathetic. It has been three years and we thought we would see a slow, precision passing, adequate shooting, and decent defensive team. So far our defense could stuff our offense.
    Looking forward to CFH magic for the next bball season, Georges style.

    i disagree, the seniors don't have a ton of talent to say the least and they do hinder us on the offensive end, but they all know their roles and do a good job of playing fundamental ball most of the time. i would say that petersen has gotten quite a bit better and although haluska may not have gotten better, he definitely understands his role better and doesn't force near as many shots.

    The Srs have hit their celling of getting better. There is only so good they can get, and they are there.

    Re: Our biggest problem

    I would say our biggest problem is that we don't have a true point guard that can run the offense and create plays.
