in short...

they have options. lot of transfers, still getting to learn each other

they play fast, want claude to be their guy. has some size. guys are like 6 9 or 6 '3 plus

cook may be able to feast.

trick is to limit the easy points...as then they get really hard to beat.

change defenses...imo their primary ball handlers are not pure points. press them too. periodically.
