I also see Burgess playing some point next year. You said Otero is like Cummard but bigger and a not as good of a shot. He shot 64% from the floor this year playing the 2/3. He was also his conferences defensive player of the year. I expect big things out of him.

Cummard is a good ball handler and will be fine at the 2. This makes us a little bigger, with Plaisted at the 5, Tav at the 4, Otero at the 3, Cummard at the 2 and TBD at the 1.

If Murdock starts at the point next year, we win 15 games tops. He is worse than Terry Nashif.
I'd like to hear more on Otero. I'm impressed with that 64% number, but a lot of JC guys get gawdy shooting stats from fast breaks and garbage points. What little I've read on him said that his outside shooting was the weakness in his game and that's what he needs to work on to succeed at the next level. If he can shoot the 3, along with his apparent size and athleticism, he will be a great find.
