I agree with everything said above, although I feel MUCH more confident in Keshod playing PF, now that I've seen a game under Lloyd (despite the fact that the roster was configured for an exhibition). He plays much bigger than 6'7".

Love and Larsson can play together, but it depends on their matchups. The two could provide huge scoring spurts but could also throw up quick threes and allow opponents to get back into games.

It'll be interesting to see how the rotation pans out because our roster is extremely deep with a diversity of skillsets. I bet the "regulars" aren't the same in both November and March...

Another hope I have is that Tommy will play 10 players deep for most of the season. Not forcefully go to 7-8 players. There's no way this roster shouldn't be utilized to the fullest extent that the depth can take it. I really do not want to see moonball lobs to Ballo as the default option. There are at least 4 guards on this roster that can make a play and not solely have to jack up a 3pt shoot.

Stretch 4 is a thing. Tommy should allow it.

Keshod might look good in exhibition, but let's just wait until we play our first real opponent. Not the opponents we will win 103-60, but the Maui Jim Tournament type opponents. He very well could be this team's "Draymond Green", but I'm not going to anoint him yet.

Vessaar seems lost in the fold at the moment. I want to see him out there too. Dylan Anderson may have hands of stone/frying pan hands, but if he's not going to get a chance to play I don't know why he feels a need to stick around so I am hoping to see Dylan out there too developing a step out "Tim Duncan Range" shot.

Dylan has already made huge strides over the past year. His body and shooting has improved but he still needs to finish with confidence around the rim. He'll be patient and hang around because he'll be the focal point of the frontcourt as an upperclassman.

Moonball lobs are ok if you have a mismatch down low but it shouldn't be your first look.

Keshod and most of our bigs are not ideal stretch 4's. We have a plethora of dangerous shooters and I agree that playing 10 deep will make us more versatile. If only 7 guys step up and consistently play well, then you give a bulk of the minutes to the best players available...but I think the bench will be used often this season (especially if Veesaar comes back healthy).
