This team gets places by playing defense and not turning it over.   

Will we need to score?  Sure.   But we're not even leaving the gate unless our guys come to play D.

Branch, Greene, Pointer, Sampson & Obekpa were an at best, and average defensive team. They were an awful offensive team. Classic St.John's.

Jordan, Harrison, Pointer, Sampson & Sanchez should be a completely different team. While I'd love to see us press like the Johnnies of old, Harrison just doesn't have the foot speed to do it.

A line up of Jordan, Greene, Pointer, Sanchez and Obekpa? Maybe they could.

You put pointer at the 2 and D'lo at the 3 defensively. Helps aid the foot speed problem.

But then isn't DLo overmatched guarding a guy like CJ Fair?

CJ fair yea, but there aren't many CJ fairs around. In general I think D'lo is better suited guarding college 3's than he is 2's. I'd rather him guard James Bell than Ryan Archiadacano, to give an example. D'lo has no problem with strength, his problem comes with quickness as you mentioned.

I asked in another thread, where the subject of the Summer tour came up....

Is there any word on if there's a chance D'Lo could be reinstated before the start of the Fall Semester - say, Summer Session, in time to be on the team for the Europe tour?   Five road games (a really LONG road) is a GREAT opportunity for the team to start bonding and meshing - and very counter-productive if the likely regular season leading scorer isn't part of the mix....

I certainly hope he is brought into the fold for the summer tour.  I don't see why he wouldn't/couldn't if he's doing what he has to do now.  Would love to get our entire team playing together, and start to have D'Lo working with Rysheed and the rest of the team.

 Maybe he has been invited back but hasn't yet accepted the invitation?
