@perthworld - he plays defence like a blind 99 year old with incontinence problems though...
So everyone getting all confusing between the line ups and depth charts... without concentrating too much on who is starting and who isn't, currently it's:
Ware* | Bruce
Lisch | Kuany
Newley | Didi^
Kickert | Moller
Bogues | Hunter
So technically two more players left... I doubt they'll go with three imports at this point, I think they'll go with one more and see how the pre-season goes...
Couple of thoughts... such as they are with limited coffee...
No way Moller is ready to start OR defend at the 5... I like the kid, but he's seriously lacking the muscle to even defend the bigger 4s...
I like the idea of Newls coming off the bench... he did well that part of the season he did that and if he buys in, still has that extra oomph to really give that second unit some teeth... It all depends on the opposition and how Didi goes pre-season...
CEO Pongrass said they're looking for a 4/3, changing from the 3/4 from a previous interview, I'm guessing before they locked Didi up, pending Summer League, but I still think the back up bigs are our biggest weakness, unless Hunter is a giant diamond in the rough... retaining Kicks I think was a giant mistake instead of going after someone like Boone who can compliment Bogues but also not let the team down when they have to rest the big man and someone like Kicks needs to be brought on... Weak as piss and half as enthusiastic...
I think, with Newls, Moller and Didi, they have that area covered, they really need some proper rebounding and defensive bigs help...
Hard to tell how many minutes Bruce and Kuany will get, as new coach, could be different story than Gaze and his "play the starters to death" strategy... The best thing from that last interview with the CEO was that they're looking to get the team starting pre-season training in July, instead of weeks later like previous seasons... This can only be a good thing, and a huge indicator that the new coach and management aren't mucking about, which will be a nice change...
