In thinking about this, one of the major disadvantages to a team in playing a deliberately weak schedule is that on any given night when they beat up a bad team there is no way of knowing for sure if they could have beaten someone better. The team will be better from getting almost everyone back and playing better competition. Maybe it won't translate into more wins, but it will be a better team. And no, I'm not that worried about Dastrup. His not contributing much was already assumed. Colby Lee is 6-9 and big, and he's been home from the mission for several months now, so he's had time to get into shape. He's probably more likely to be productive inside than Dastrup was.
