mika, keith, rap, dou, vogt. just because he can

i also think tari and keith might like playing together. those will be some fastbreaks

a bright side with da vid pertaining to these cats is that if the season is canceled, jules is gonna get two years regardless

i don't think lahkin redshirts. we're gonna need some experience on the frontline next year

While I think Dou could guard on the perimeter, I see that line-up getting eaten up by a press defense. Maybe if Keith makes a huge leap with his ball handling it could work in small spurts to try to create some mismatches. Would be kind of fun to watch Dou and Rap hanging out on the perimeter just jacking 3's while clearing the paint for Vogt. Replace either Rap or Vogt with Eason and I think you may have a more viable lineup. Even better, run Mika and either Saunders or DeJulius (if eligible) in the back court with Eason, Dou, and Rap or Vogt. From what I've heard, Eason has superior ball handling ability for a 4. I think we'll see him leading fast breaks like Gary Clark used to. I'm trying not to set my expectations too high, but as I've said before, I think Eason will have a similar impact to Gary. He might even be a little more naturally talented, although it remains to be seen if he has anywhere near the work ethic Gary has.
