Although lacking the start power of KBD, Liddell, Branham, or Sensabaugh, I’m liking the makeup of this team more than any previous team of Holtman. Multiple guys who can bring the ball up the court in Thornton, Bonner, Gayle, and even Mahaffey. Multiple guys who can shoot the ball in Thornton, Gayle, Battle, and hopefully Middleton. A couple really good athletes and a handful of tough defenders/rebounders. Plus a pair of solid big men.
It really doesn’t feel like this team is going to be entirely reliant on one particular guy having a good night. Which is a nice change from years past.
