I agree with this. D will keep us in a lot of games. Only reason I don't see us making a Final Four run is we would have to win 4 neutral site games in a row against top teams. Don't think we have that in us this year.

True. Our D is great, but if Kennedy/Yanick gets shut down, I'm not sure we have enough shooters to make up for it after Nic. Hopefully Keith goes off towards the end of the year and really finds his stoke, which has been coming around as of late. That would make us real dangerous....

Agree. I too see Keith Frazier's jumper as having the biggest potential to be an X-factor for us in March.

We played Virginia on a neutral court and only lost in the last second by 3. The are top 20. We are better than we were then, more confident.

Another aspect to watch the rest of the way is for Moreira to get back up to speed.
