In response to Basketball Bruce
For the record, while the raw shooting percentages you list look comparable, Goodman had about a 101 ORAT in conference this year (so right around average), while Silpe's last year was about 90 (well below average). PER and win shares show the same thing -- that Goodman seemed to progress to an average level by the conference season, while Silpe never did (despite playing more) his first year. The main issue is turnovers, and it is enough of an issue that it basically ruins everything else statistically.
To echo Mr. Danley's very good points for a moment, I do think that removing Howard from the mix changes things. Obviously the easiest thing to do is find a guy who does everything Matt did. Assuming that doesn't just happen, it could be that the best mix turns out to just be different without him. So that creates opportunity for Silpe, and Sam, and Tyler, etc.
