Cause GP2 was out, I would change it to:
PG Podziemski 28, Paul 20
SG Thompson 32, Quinones 16
SF Wiggins 32, Moody 16
PF Green 16, Kuminga 32
C Jackson-Davis 32, Green 16
In the NBA competition there needs to be a balance for outside and inside scoring based on skills, size and athleticism. It does take one guy to throw the execution out of the window.
Look at Warriors roster ranking at fitting into positions:
PG - 1 CURRY, 2 PODZIEMSKI, 3 PAUL
SG - 1 THOMPSON, 2 MOODY, 3 QUINONES; Podz releasing point on jumpshot is low and his leap at drives is at bottom of scale (that's why I like DiVincenzo more), playing with Steph makes it less visible but still it is a bug in execution
SF - 1 WIGGINS, 2 PAYTON, 3 MOODY; Moody is at the bottom end of the scale, Kuminga miss essesntial skills of shooting treys on the move, he is at least one offseason away from fitting into perimeter position
PF - 1 GREEN, 2 KUMINGA; Saric is too slow to have positive impact, Wiggins miss bruising quality to be impact inside player
C - 1 JACKSON-DAVIS, 2 GREEN, 3 LOONEY; Looney is too slow to contribute more than just few minutes versus backup centers
Look at last game vs Spurs. There were 24! changes of lineups. For most of the game there was significant lack of fitting into positions preventing the team from finding any flow.
How did my fitting lineups in this game?
In the start of 2nd Q they played for 4 minutes (but in 4 different lineups and 3 of them with Quinones at SG) and lost 5-12.
In the late of 3rd Q and in 4th Q they played for 9 minutes (4 different lineups with Thompson or Moody at SG) and won 34-25.
Team plus/minus depending on position:
Kuminga at SF -8, at PF +4
Wiggins at SF +1, at PF -5
