an actual look (or, rather, "hear") inside what Cronin is thinking for this season.

Sounds like this will be a developmental year for Booker and the other two posts will be called upon more but their motion is at a lower level so it will be a more fundamental offense when they are in than it will be with Booker. OTOH, we have a truly outstanding and proven PG who can take advantage and a post who stays in position should improve rim defense and rebounding. It will place more responsibility on our guards to stop penetration but we should have three effective defenders on the perimeter. Plus that vision at least frees Bilodeau and Dailey to operate more freely on offense than was the case last year with them being our two bigs on the floor all the time.

I think many will be pleased to hear Mick Cronin going on focused on the offensive end
