Message: [QUOTE="reedny, post: 3212838, member: 1423"] Agree. The new college game (especially the NCAA's) is guard driven. Smaller lineup teams can have success - Nova being the paradigm. They ran three shooter-guards and a couple forwards that could rebound and defend the rim. Obviously their shooters were [I]really [/I]good. But that's only one path to success, and maybe not even the most likely. Most of the top teams still play size in the middle - because they can recruit big centers. Look at the top teams right now: Kansas has Azubuike (7'0 270). LV has Enoch- 6'10 255). OSU has Wesson (6'9 270). And Duke has Carey (6'10 270). These guys are huge. Is it possible to beat them with guard-heavy lineups? Sure, IF you shoot the lights out. But if you don't ... good luck .. because they don't have to. [/QUOTE]
