In response to iogyhufi

based on 3 games i think the ceiling is much higher than the level so far for:
wolf, mahoney, simmons and aletan (played 2/3).
wolf has to stay out of foul trouble. these matchups all include 6 11+ kids who are uncomfortable out of the paint.
he has such much potential setting this offense up in the half court like a 1998 Steve Goodrich at princeton. i saw some of this vs LMU and he made a lot of mistakes too.

i am enamored w samson's athleticism and size but his integration and offensive development will take time.
i cld say the same thing abt Simmons. he is also a special athlete at this level.

james shrunk the rotation to 8 against LMU. now you have 3 in 3 days against elite mid majors.

constant balancing act bt developing/integrating some intriguing pieces for the future. and maximizing the short term.
