Near the end of the game both Prosser and MK were in at the same time and they both were trying to set screens for the guards then dive to the basket.
I can envision that working with the ability of WL & DSE to penetrate and finish. I know many are of the opinion that playing two bigs means crowding the lane, back to the basket. I'm sure WE & JP can do that too, but I can see a scenario where setting the high screens pulls the other teams bigs from the basket and gives BU a chance to penetrate without having a shot blocker down low. This also gives WE & JP the chance to crash the boards following the drive. Or, if the opponent does a defensive switch you have a slower big trying to stop WL or DSE who also have the option to kick out to an AW, DD or SM. So I guess I can see where JL might not have to go with a 4 guard offense all season long.
