Kansas was a Good Example of Tall Basketball Players

The NCAA Tournament is over and Duke won it all, but Kansas was a good example of great defense. They almost went undefeated. Their average height was 6'9" tall and they kept most teams to fewer points than their average. Such tall, fast players are why it would be good to try 4-on-4 to pick up the speed of the games again, and get the scoring up to 120 points per team again.
