Message: [QUOTE="BruinGold, post: 5276306, member: 11533"] The Betts sisters desperately want to play together, on the court, at the same time. I'm pretty sure that is going to happen. That said, I do see a "fast break unit" that includes Sienna and maybe Rice/Kneepkens/Jaquez/Dugalic that runs a little smaller... though that's every player on the floor between 5'11" and 6'4". So, I don't see UCLA getting "outsized" ever. But, just as in baseball, it doesn't matter how great your fastball is if you don't have an off-speed pitch to keep the defense guessing. You have to run different looks just to confuse your opponent. Without much of a talent or height dropoff, the Bruins can run some pretty weird lineups out on the court, and I expect to see them all in November and December. Dugalic and Gardiner, for example, have both done time at the 5, and I expect that we will see that, with nary a Betts in sight. The ability to rotate either of the aforementioned to the outside, dragging a post with them, is a luxury that I expect to be indulged in. [/QUOTE]
