If this team starts shooting like the 2010 team from 3 we will be Top 5 all season and better than the 2010 team. This year's front court is better and deeper.

We still don't know who our go to guy will be when the game is tight and we need a bucket. We'll need a couple guards to come up big like Freeman or Manu or even King. All 3 are gaining confidence.
