Perhaps if two of the three are on the court at the same time, it just might work, if the team learns how to provide help defense. (Right now "help" defense is when one player tries to help, but it takes more than that.)
Position-less basketball is the direction the Nuggets seem to be headed. I noticed Lyles started at SF a couple of games ago even though he has more PF size, but the guy can shoot. Using two guys together with good size who can shoot ( Juancho, Lyles, and Lydon) sure looks like it allows us to create mismatches on the offensive end, but how does it translate on the defensive end ??
