So what is the strength of this team?

It isn't defense. Our defense is OK, but nothing to write home about, at least so far.  Our rebounding is very solid, with a plus-6 so far this year.Our shooting is pretty good, both overall, from the arc, and from the line, and I am thinking that is what we have hung our hat on so far. Interestingly, our starters shoot the 3 exceptionally well as a group. On the other hand, Jones, Black and Marcus are shooting 55% overall as a group. So we have some pop inside and out. Of the eight players who are averaging double figure minutes, only Johnson and Burns are shooting less than 46% overall.
