First off this team is Taj Gibson’s. He lead the Pac-10 last year in blocks, but still had an off year all around. This year he should dominate.

Additionally, the offense cannot function without Daniel Hackett.

Ok onto DeMar:

1) excellent body control
2) very level headed
3) does not need touches or shots to get in the game

Did not get a real accurate read on his defense, but it’s easy to see why this kid is going to work so well with Tim Floyd.

North Carolina transfer Alex Stepheson is finally expected to get word today on whether or not he will be eligible.
