No depth, limited outside shooting, very poor rebounding. Those things just don't lead to me thinking this team is a tournament team.
Bruce's teams always seem to give us the unexpected so maybe they will turn this around and get back to playing good basketball. I just think this team is so reliant on Dean and Barry playing great every time out. Teams will undoubtedly focus on taking Barry's driving lanes away and make him score from the perimeter. That is far from his strength.
There is absolutely NO hope that the bench will pick up the starters. Now that Stokes is back, there is a possibility that we score a bit off the bench but other then him the bench is BAD.
I will keep hoping but I just don't see this team making the tournament.
