Message: [QUOTE="oldhusky, post: 4315787, member: 9844"] We can all dream, for me it is to have a rotation with two 5's and two 4's that generally stick to their position. Last year in our three big rotation Liv was the only one that did not have to sacrifice. Aaliyah had the disadvantage of having to be a C much of the time and the same thing with Dorka playing PF more than was ideal. Whoever was in with Liv, Liv played C so she was not as affected. Both Dorka and Aaliyah should be better with more time at their best position. If Aubrey was healthy last year we could have had a rotation of 4 that worked well, but that was not meant to be. Amari is very important here if we are going to have a backup to Dorka with similar height. She may be as much a 4 as a 5 but has shot blocking potential, and is the closest to meeting the requirements for that position. We have an abundance of players that are probably best at the 4. That includes Aaliyah, Aubrey, Ice and Ayanna. In addition we could throw in an occasional tall guard like Caroline or Lou in certain situations, and of course Amari might be an option there too. I don't know who will get the bulk of the playing time when Aaliyah is not in, but we have many talented candidates. At the 5, however, if Amari isn't the backup solution, we still should be good with a very talented 4 playing somewhat out of position, but I hope that won't be necessary. [/QUOTE]
