[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So....the starting 5 aren't necessarily the best? My DD is the person next to a PG (shooting guard??) and is short. The girl who starts is a "big" and doesn't play guard positions. [/quote] No, you'd be lying to her if you told her it doesn't matter who starts and at 13 she would know you're ridiculous for thinking that. With nearly every coach the starters are the players he or she thinks are the best players. Period. End of story. They may not actually be the best players but that's a different story. Basketball seems to be the most consistent in this regard. I've seen hockey lineups that don't start with the best players at this age and even sometimes soccer but I have a DS who plays basketball in HS and have never seen it in basketball. I think it's just fewer players and it's very quick scoring so they want to start out strong to build up morale?[/quote]
