In response to mrjames
Lewis's health will be one of the big keys. Our defensive efficiency was 2 points per 100 possessions worse this season, in large part, I think, due to him not being close to 100% for most of the year.
The NIT games were a reminder of what he can do when he's feeling better, though. It wasn't just the offense. It was the shot-blocking, and the way he was able to cover up other guys getting beat. (This is one reason I don't think Amaker can afford to give up on Baker, despite all his mental mistakes. We need Baker's length, athleticism, and shot-blocking against better teams).
It'd be really nice to finally get to see what these guys could do if they were all relatively healthy at the same time.
