The most defined positions are Point Guard and Center. At both positions, this team is far stronger.

-Improved Hall and Demin are much stronger than Hall/Stewart.

-Improved and healthy Fouss and Keita are much stronger than hobbling Fouss/Khalifa.

-Improved Knell + Demin + Saunders + Baker are stronger than SJ/Jax/Knell/RS.

Catchings and Mag are equal to Waterman.

Starting 5: Hall, Demin, Saunders, Catchings, Keita.

If eligible, Boskovic has to fight his way into the major minute rotation. Right now, he's probably behind Catchings, Mag, Keita, and Fouss.

Assuming good health, this team is clearly stronger and deeper, but sum of the parts is a different question. And it may depend on whether the massive changes in coaching staff/admin structure, not yet well defined or settled, gel, as much as how well players work together. But they all seem like really good people, so there's a chance.

I'm optimistic, but we will know much more a few games into the season.
