[QUOTE="Ayooooooo, post: 1481278, member: 746517"] A lot of Giorgi’s foul issues last year were when we played teams with significant size advantages. He was an all-freshman type player. Even if Kofi fouls out in 20 minutes of game time, that’s still 15-20 minutes of 6”9 and 7”0 on the court together. Last year Aaron had to play the 4 because Tev was suspended, Kipper was regressing, or Griffin wasn’t ready. There is no reason, given Giorgi, Kofi, BBV, Kipper, Tev, AG and Hamlin, that we should have a guy at 6”5 at the four spot this year. Damonte at the 3 was pretty small too. Rolling out a starting 5 of: TF (6”1ish) Ayo (6-4/6”5) Griffin/Jones/Kipper (6-6/6-7) Giorgi (6”9) Kofi (7”0) Compared to last season TF(6”1) Ayo (6”5) Damonte (6”3) Jordan (6”5) Giorgi (6”9) that’s 3 more inches at the 3, 4 more inches at the 4, and 3 more inches at the 5. Big difference at the 3-5 spots. Should help tremendously on defense. [/QUOTE]
