Which Lineup do You See as The LV’s Best Starting Five?

I think the intention was to play her more than she played against W Va fouls prevented that from happening. Against some teams we must go bigger to start the game or probably start out behind. I like Suarez and Green but don't think either one of them can guard some of the centers coming up even for five minutes so one of them needs to be out of the starting lineup when we play Texas. then Texas A&M.and onward. Even Ole Miss and Auburn have centers they can't guard.

There team is really bad right now due to poor shooting, But LSU 6-5 Faustine Aifuwa has played pretty well so far she is a load in the post.

I've watched the games and no way the data supports that at the power positions were starting the best players. There has to be other reasons as no way Suarez and Green better suited for the five than Key or even KK. That is almost definitely true of the point position as well and the stats of the first three games back this up in both situations. The data they are talking about may suggest that Green, Suarez, Walker, Davis and Burrell play together well as a group but as we saw that group had huge inside matchup problems against W. Va from the very start and changes had to be made quickly before we got to far behind. That lineup would work tonight against Furman which I'm sure is not a big team. Huge problem if they start against Texas watch Texas jump out to a quick lead by dominating Suarez and Green inside. This is also true against most SEC teams as well you need to start a true five you can't have a four and a player that should probably be a three as your inside players easy for a big post player to dominate right from the start. If the data is saying those are the five best players then it is also totally ignoring opponent matchups which are far more important to understand if your doing your best to win the game.
I said the same thing in another post...agree 1,000000000%

I sort of changed my mind on the starting five and rotation after the first four games. I think I now go Key, Davis, Horston, Burrell, and Walker. That would probably be 150 minutes of basketball unless someone got in foul trouble. The other fifty would go to Green, Suarez, maybe split about 10 minutes between Renne, Salary,and Darby. Then Kk inside who is losing ground to McCoy if she continues to miss layups.

The only problem is McCoy only shows up against cupcakes and is a non-factor against the top teams.
