If we go back to the 4 guard lineup playing 35+ minutes again next year we are looking at another 18-12 type year. Like them or not Kodi, Romero, and even Brian Johnson changed the dynamic of our team down the stretch. In that stretch of wins we were able to run an effective offense inside the arc and got more putbacks and inside rebounding than we could do with the guard heavy lineup.

I think we're strong favorites to win the West next year, and have a good chance to win the entire league(with or w/out Kodi)
If LSU loses Thornton and Mitchell, they'll drop out of the top half of the West and Auburn won't be where they were. I think Bama is much improved though, I think their talent is underrated.
In the East I'd look for UT and UF to battle it out. UF's talented but soft again though, much like when they had Lee, Roberson, and Walsh. UT's more athletic, but if UK gets Meeks and Patterson back, I think they'll make a run for the overall league title.

Florida or UT in the East. Ole Miss or MSU in the West. I'd lean toward UT and Ole Miss personally, but the season is a long way off. I think Bama will be a factor in the West though. LSU will fall off, as they lose Thornton, Martin, Johnson, and Temple, as will Auburn with the losses of Barber and Robinson. I think Vandy could be a factor in the East, and South Carolina will be a factor if Downey chooses to stay. SC will be the most experienced team in the league if Downey sticks around.
