Why the Deac Not
Frederic Fuckin' Chopin
Thanks for the videos Spring Ckn!!
I definitely think Leonard will be useful. I hope he can rebound a little bit better than what his stats at Campbell indicate. Would really be nice if Andre has developed enough to play 10-15 mins at the 5 so Devin can play his natural position. But probably doesn't matter so much as the offense will likely go through the low-post more often under DM than Coach Redact.
As for Tree, he offensive game is very much limited. Hence why I think he'll start. I know it sounds strange, but I think Danny may just throw his best 5 defenders on the floor at the start and try to disrupt, frustrate and confuse the other team for the first 5-8 mins. If the offense sputters too much with only CMM, DT and one other viable option (Leonard most likely, but which guard?) on the floor, then I think you'll see G-Mac, Mitchell or Crab enter the game. And Dinos should be very useful off the bench when DT needs rest or someone gets into foul trouble.
Of course, we could go "big" and really try to suffocate teams with an active zone with CMM & Overton or McClinton at the top and a backcourt of DT, Leonard and Dinos. But then you're talking about a really methodical, limited bunch potentially on offense? Who knows? Leonard's presence, along with his versatility, as well as Dino's ability to drift out and spread the D could really help DT inside. He may become the force I think he's capable of becoming. But as you know as a former coach, if you can't shoot it consistently from the perimeter, you're going to have a tough time winning games.
