This next point gets over my level of understanding and I need to pay better attention... I'm trying to figure this out... but I'm going to toss this out anyway.
In modern "position-less" basketball, the lines between the various positions are blurred. Most of the players are expected to be versatile and do several of the same things. Positions thus are closer to this:
1. Wings
2. Ball handlers
3. Post
The wings are expected to shoot outside and inside, and they still need to be able to dribble, move the ball, defend a couple types of players, and create assists. They are like shooting guards with combo guard skills or wings/small forwards with combo guard skills.
The ball handlers bring the ball up court, drive for shots, and all the things point guards do except they are also expected to shoot from the perimeter and defend up a level.
And post are the bigger players that defend at the rim but still ideally you like to see them getting out for more kinds of shots and actively passing the ball around with ball handling skills.
It doesn't entirely work like that but that's more the trend. Each position does more than the old days.
Perimeter shooting is so important these days.
So... that would mean that Micheaux and Hart are playing the same position: post. Both are low post players. Micheaux is not a wing-type and never attempted 3's. Hart certainly is not a wing-type.
Heyer is a wing-type but also a high post type, or playing more there.
Coach P, I believe, comes from the positionless tradition with perimeter shooting and moving the ball around to create scoring opportunities, and each player needs to make stuff happen.
I don't know if this post was worth posting but I do believe Hart-low-post, Micheaux-high-post, Heyer-small-forward-wing doesn't make sense. I think it would have been more Hart-Micheaux-share-post, Heyer-high-post-wing.
I don't think it even made sense to think of Micheaux as a classic power forward playing next to a center. The proper framework is that Hart and Micheaux are the same position.
But wait, I'm not done.
One thing I loved about Hart is that she can pass the ball well. And she's tall. So she's not just a tree standing there. Toss her the ball. Now what is she going to do with it?
Pass-score!
Turn-score!
Post player as kind of a point guard feeding assists to other players.
Or maybe not. I don't really know.
I am real interested to see what this looks like next season, especially if Coach P has players that will make this work. Like wings who can score and score and score.
