Replaceable but was hoping he stayed. After a rough start I thought he settled in nicely as a starter. I saw improvement in his decision making and he was disruptive defensively. I thought another year under Sha would be good for his development but this is the nature of business now. Lots of spots to fill
I wanted him back, but in a different role. You never know, maybe he comes back? If not, Sha lost two key pieces in his late game trapping with the departure of Middleton. On the other hand the object us not having to constantly play from behind.
