Message: [QUOTE="oldhusky, post: 4197290, member: 9844"] Geno might only be comfortable with 6 or 7 players some games, but it is not he was down to that number. Amari and Piath were available the last game. Geno didn't have to go with a 4 guard lineup, he chose to, by deciding not to play Amari or Piath. Maybe that was a good decision, maybe it wasn't, but he had a choice. Previously he had what 3 games were we literally only had three guards available, and our players were gassed at the end of the game, and it showed. In that scenario we had options as well, not good ones but options. To rest the guards we needed to play Aaliyah almost all of her minutes at SF, in essence providing some rest for all three of Evina, Christyn and Caroline. That could have been done more, but since Aaliyah was needed at SF, that meant Amari and or Piath would have needed to play some in the big rotation. Another tough decision, but in that scenario I think Geno should have used his untested bigs some vs. having his regulars predictably very tired down the stretch. [/QUOTE]
