Team is a donut, no big man inside. BC is gonna extend defense on the arc then pound the ball down low. If Sims is gonna guard 6-10 to 7 footers all year long and Novak is gonna guard 6-7 and 6-8 power forwards, then this team won't win half of the big ten games.
They didnt have a big last year and surprised all of us. How effective is a 7 footer who is going to be pulled away from the basket on defense? The athleticism of Sims, Harris, and LLP are going to be key factors for this teams great play coming up. I don't see them defeating Kansas unless they get Aldrich and Collins in foul trouble, but aside from that they should be able to beat Uconn, Utah, and sparty with the way they've been playing.
