We'll have two small PG's, three good sized wings, plus Felix. And Sima and Williams our bigs, plus hopefully an improved Amar. We could also get Yakwe eligible for the second semester. The key I think will be if Williams can play post defense, because if he can, he will cause matchup problems. His offensive game looks good and he is a good deep shooter. But if he can give us good post D, and Amar comes back with an improved all around game, we should be fine as far as height is concerned.
Lovett and Mussini can cause matchup problems also against certain teams, at certain times, but against most Big East teams playing them together could be problematic, defensively, because they are both so small. But of course teams would have to defend them too, so it works both ways. And the trend seems to be smaller and smaller teams doing better and better in the spread out college game with the short three pointer. So I don't really see that as a problem. If there is a problem with this team, it will be a lack of experience, I think.
But the thing I am most encouraged by is our quality wings which are the key to having multiple lineups. Good quality, midsize wings are the most versatile players, and can give you all kinds of different looks. For example, they can play in the paint if you want to go small or in the backcourt when you want to go big. Having talented wings is the key to versatile, and varied lineup options. You could play Lovett with all three wings with Williams at the five and just run people off the court.
