Message: [QUOTE="oldhusky, post: 4057216, member: 9844"] This is one of the great ongoing Boneyard debates. Like you I think Azzi might force herself into the starting lineup, and I hope she does, but I don't think th at means a 4 guard lineup. Whoever plays the 4 in a four guard lineup, be it Evina (most likely), Christyn or Azzi, they would be less effective there than at a more natural position. Aaliyah IMO is already as good as Christyn or Evina, although I understand not just some but most on the Boneyard would probably disagree with that. It is also her natural position. Aubrey is a very good backup to her, and now with Dorka we have a two headed monster at C. For that matter we have third stringers that almost any team would love to have as their principle backups in Amari a very highly ranked big who will probably have trouble getting off the bench, and Mir who produced pretty well in limited minutes that despite that could be even more limited this year. Who knows Piath might turn into a major asset too. My main point is we have bigs too, and no burning need to use a guard at the 4. I agree with the talent level of the guards mentioned but think those five players need to get their minutes at 1-3, not the 4. Time will tell. [/QUOTE]
