Boatwright and Stewart keys to the season?

I agree that those two will be the keys, along with finding a reliable second ball handler (either Shaqquan or De'Anthony) and playing defense in the paint -- which was an area of big weakness for us last season: we were 2nd in the conference in 3pt FG% defense (32.7%), but 9th in 2pt FG% defense (49.5%); and 11th in defensive rebounding percentage (67.6%).

If we just became average in those two categories -- 2pt FG% defense and defensive rebounding -- we would give up about 7.5 points fewer per game .... and our conference scoring margin would have gone from -0.4 to +7 -- which would have put us in the top 3 in the conference.
