Re: I'm enjoying this season, but I'm really excited for next year. With


Congrats on the win and more importantly for your team's resilient play, especially after being down most of the game. But cautious optimism, not irrational exuberance, is necessary. Just as your team and coach are learning more about yourselves and about what rotations and style of play work best, so too are the other teams in the league that already revealed their patterns, style of play, etc learning a lot more about you. As your team "gels" into a team with more predictable rotations, tendencies will become more widely known and available on game film. The new stuff that works today will need to become increasingly more new to allow you to win in the future. You'll start seeing teams denying Allen's drives, denying Bibbs, playing more 2-3 zones to prevent dribble penetration and trips to the foul line (which is working now but is masking problems and is fool's gold in the long term), and allowing Allen as great a role as he will allow himself (which would mean it'd be a very big role). Of course, exceeding expectations is a good thing, so, again, congrats and good luck. A better ACC is better for everyone.
