How can you leave off Flannigan in that group?
Anyway, everyone is better then I expected starting the season then I thought with the exception of Cambridge. Turbo is still the same. I’ve been really impressed with who I would consider our role players in Moore and Cardwell. They bring a much needed toughness to rebounding and controlling the paint. Moore definitely has some scoring skills that will be useful in some matchups. Overall outside of not playing decent defense the first few games I would give the team a solid A - so far boarding in B+. Seems we work way to late in the clock on some possessions, way to many turnovers and bad passing, lack of defensive intensity, and getting comfortable when up 6-8 points but those are all attributes that I will think will be teaching moments over the course of the season.
I would say I thought it would be a great season if in March that not by record but by quality of play if AU was considered one of the top 4 teams in the conference. I had them coming into the year around 8th or 9th. After a few games I would say they are 6th or 7th. Now comes the grind and lots of away games... can we work ourselves into playing in the top 4. If so watch out for ‘21-‘22 season.

Moore and Cardwell.
Moore is quietly becoming a very reliable, solid player who is a viable scoring option.
Caldwell is an aircraft carrier. With development, he will be on an NBA roster.

Turnover machine. So lazy with the ball.

Cardwell
He has maybe become one of my favorite players on this squad. His energy and demeanor out there are great. If he can improve a few parts of his game just a little he will me a machine.

Cardwell with a packed Jungle will be some fun.

DEfintely Flanigan has improved to the point that he may be able to help us some at the point, if Sharife doesn't get cleared.
He has really improved his 3 point shooting as well as his FT shooting. He still charges too much, and uses to much muscle instead of just going up straight at times.
