Message: [QUOTE="Bone Dog, post: 5113031, member: 12088"] Maybe it’s just me but I suspect Geno is going to use Kaitlyn and KK all season long. They’ll split 40 mins at PG initially. But when Azzi comes back the platoon will get more complicated and Paige and Azzi will get some minutes as PG and some at the 2 and the 3. This will probably mean KK and Kaitlyn’s minutes are reduce to maybe 15 each. i doubt we’ll ever see the two of them on the floor together. In an interview last week, Geno talked about having Paige and Azzi on the floor together. But he also mentioned the importance of having Azzi on the floor when Paige sits. I can imagine him playing the two of them for 25 minutes or so, but only 20 minutes together. When they’re both on the floor with Ash, he might sit KK or Kaitlyn. Similarly, in the frontcourt I doubt we’ll ever see Jana and Ice on the floor together. In that same interview Geno mentioned this and suggested there weren’t a lot of situations in which that would make sense. This means they split 40 minutes. One or the other may get a larger share, I suppose. But Sarah is likely to play at least 25 minutes in every game. It’s easy to see that a lot of combinations are possible within these parameters. It won’t just be about deciding on a starting lineup for Geno. By the end of February, he’ll have figured out which lineups work best together, which patterns of substitution, and when to use them. It may seem very casual and improvised to us. But there will be a method to it all. [/QUOTE]
