We should win by 20, but will probably be closer. I would like to see this lineup play at least minutes to see how they do:
Massengill-1, Westbrook-2, Davis-3, Green-4,KK-5
been there done that against the good team and it has failed. Who will KK defend ? she is always caught trying to defend a wing player or guard. I`m not saying it`s not a good line up it`s just KK get`s into foul trouble early and fast.

It's not about how we start,,,it's about how we advance and how we finish.
I want a decisive win!
PS...Miss you Gov
Makes sense. Has Massengill at point and Westbrook at the 2 been experimented with?KK will probably not start....Florida's 3 primaries are 5'10"(K Smith, play-maker), 5'10" (D Washington, best rebounder) and 5'8" ( F Nakkasoglu, 3 pt shooter 56/122=46%)
If Meme's not ready look for an all-forward/guard lineup....Ren,, Evi,, C Green, Zaay and Meme/Jazz. I would even go Rae or Mimi here before KK. I would get a lead and then put KK and Harris in to see if we can work on pounding it inside.
If we start with KK and have to go to a speedier lineup, it will put us "countering of personnel" moves instead of dictating the matchups.

Doesn't your statement "KK will probably not start ..." (because of Florida's starting lineup) mean that we are already "countering personnel" before the game begins instead of "dictating the matchups" ?

I agree, it does make sense. Which should be the overriding factor and not the "countering personnel" or "dictating matchups" that were the reasons in your original post.fla starting lineup is 5-8, 5-10, 5-10, 6-1 and 6-2 ...Starting five athletic 6 footers against such a team on the gitgo makes sense. KK is a defensive liability against undersized athletic post players...
Some things you have to do JUST because they make sense.

It will be interesting to see who starts tonight. Evidently, Holly thinks it might be more important to start KK, as a reward for last game, than exposing her to a possible poor matchup. That's a factor that the coach makes a judgment on that us fans are not usually aware of.Just a quick note. To my knowledge, CJ does not set the LV starting line-up so his conjectures should not be taken as evidence the LV's coaching staff are "not dictating the matchups." Holly's pregame quote suggests that KK is going to start:
Florida’s interior game has not fared as well. The Gators are among the last in the SEC in field goal percentage, as well as rebounding — Something Tennessee hopes to take advantage of coming off of a solid performance from sophomore center Kasiyahna Kushkituah who has a career-high 14 points and 8 rebounds against LSU. “She’s a presence inside,” Warlick said of Kushkituah. “It gives us a chance to get some easier looks. We need her to play. This game (LSU) got her back to where she was playing before she got her knee hurt. Mentally, this was a great game for her.”
