Good deal, Jester. It had nothing to do with my point though. Let's just hope we can get one of these big guys in here, and if not let's remember that having a bunch of 6'5" to 6'8" guys can work.

No doubt. It's more about the players fitting the system. Some coaches can make a system fit the players. Others are good at building a roster for the system. TJ seemed terrible at both. JJ seems to be starting out getting talent first. Seems like he may be more inclined to fit the system to the players until he has more time to build the roster.

Temple and Mitchell worked out great. I've said this before many times. The problem with TJ's lineups was that both guards were very small. Mitchell was small, but more athletic, and he had a big point in Temple to help with length in the backcourt. That said, our size problems in the backcourt have basically been reversed in 1 month. I'm excited to see this team play.
