Sorry to steer off-topic. Back to serious discussion on Lush's original topic.
Lush, I think you are on the right track. It's pretty clear to all of us, that a lot of these guys can play multiple positions.
It's a good problem to have, but a problem, nonetheless, in terms of Mick finding the right ones, of probably 100 possible combinations.
I think Guyn will play off the ball some, because I see Cobb as more of a PG-SG hybrid. But I also think Ge's experience at PG last year will help him become a better all-around guard. I think Guyn will make a huge jump in production this year.
I think Mormon will get much more than 5 minutes because Mick puts a premium on defense. I do think he'll look like the early-years Guyn on offense, because he hasn't played at this level. Guyn will pass Mormon the torch of defensive shut down guard.
Troy will start at PG, IMO, because he has the edge in Mick's system over Cobb.
KJ will be first guard off the bench, but will have a good chance at leading the team in scoring, ala early SK.
IMO, Shaq is the most important returnee. He has to score consistently and lead the team. His potential is highest, but to date, the most unrealized.
Sanders is very versatile glue guy. I think he starts.
I don't see Clark playing any SF, but I agree with you that 15 minutes for him is achievable.
Center looks like a logjam. But the interesting thing, is that each of those guys has a different skill set for Mick to throw out there.
