"this is a really, really good team. D'Vauntes Smith-Rivera is a terrific guard. I think the biggest thing for them is Josh Smith. What...Josh Smith is going to show up? When he plays engaged, then they have a low post presence to go with guys on the perimeter that can shoot the ball.
"The other thing that's important is the freshman; White or Copeland, has to play well also to go with Rivera and Smith.
"So I think they have a real upside. They get down to the NCAA Tournament they start playing those better teams, they've got to have Josh Smith there game in and game out. That's a big question.
"Today he was not engaged in the beginning, got the two fouls, was on the bench. But they need him all the time down low".
