The sample is more than enough. I believe it is the center position. Cooper and Sissoko are not offensive threats at all. Neither can stretch out the defense because they lack a mid range shot much less a 3 point shot. Look at what Reese at MD and Crowl at W can do that we are not capable of doing.
The other issue is rebounding. I know that stats are not kept on rebound that we lose because those two lose the rebound when it is in their grasp but get it knocked out, or mishandle it and cough it up. Maddy has hands of stone at times and Cooper seems to lack a sense of where to be in order to corral the ball. How many times have we seen that? How many more boards would we have? That is an imponderable.
Jaxon may provide some answers because he could provide offense that the other two are not capable of. I would also like to see what Booker could do. He appears to hit 3 pointers.
What do you think?
