Posted: Sat Dec 21, 2013 2:04 pmI've gotten to watch them a few times so far this year and have been extremely impressed. They share the ball extremely well and have a bunch of different options. They definitely remind me a little bit of the Villanova teams from about 4 or 5 years ago with Allan Ray/Mike Nardi/Randy Foye/Sumpter etc.

They have 7 players who can score 15 on any given night, they share the ball well and all commit to defense. If Ochefu takes a step forward they could be very, very good. They are going to lose some games in conference for sure but they are going to make other teams work really hard to beat them.

Not one star on the team, but depth at every position. Can't think of one player that they rely on too much where they would be crushed if he went out. Players seem to fit in nicely together.
I think they lose at syracuse, go 14-4 in conference, beat temple, and enter nyc at 26-5 with a great chance at a 2 seed (overall lack of other quality teams in the league will keep them out of the 1 seed conversation, unless they beat syracuse).
