So you want them to follow the 4-out weenie fad except with 31yr old Marcin Gortat providing the defense/rebounding instead of prime Dwight Howard?
I mean, you would have to see a big jump given how unproductive their PF spot has been, and frankly the way everybody is playing Lewis would be pushing Wall and probably more than pushing Beal for best player on the team. But it would be pure gimmick ball, and without the personnel to make the gimmick work for more than 40-45 wins or so. When Settle gimmicked with Lewis, they had perhaps the last great thug frontcourt in Fortson/Evans there to collect every missed rebound and smack everybody coming down the lane. When Orlando gimmicked with Lewis they had prime Howard there to average 20-15 and win the DPOY covering all the weenie forward's faults.
