No LeBron, no AD, No Schroder, probably no Caruso.

WTF is our rotation?

THT/KCP/Wes/Kuzma/Drummond start I'd imagine.

Ben/Gasol/Harrell/McKinnie off the bench?

On a side note: I really wish we'd release Kostas and sign a guard to a two-way contract to replace him. Quit messing around with Kostas because of what his last name is.

I’d start

THT, KCP, Kuzma, Harrell, Drummond

This could be a competitive second unit:

Matthews, McKinnie, McLemore, Morris, Gasol

I actually want to see more of Kostas. He just needs to get the taste of that he can do in the NBA as he did in the g league. Just give home some spot minutes with our starters in the third quarter or alike. If he can get in rhythm, and believe he can make an impact, he could be a great asset for us this post season.

Lebron can’t even come in and give us 20 min? He knows his body and the game best, but come on. At least get a few games in before the play-in. Going from 0-playoff mode is too risky for anyone imo.

Hope the new guys are motivated to have same experience as our last year guys. Well excluding Dennis, he probably wasn't even watching the unveiling...

Markieff needs to be benched indefinitely. I don't know why this guy is so bad this season.

Drummond and Trez provided virtually no interior defense in the first half...

With the 5-6th seed basically out of reach, I hope lebron (and AD) doesnt sit out the rest of the regular season. Asking him come back for what is essentially a new season (for him) and play at a superstar level in a must win game against the warriors is too much. He’ll be rusty and the team will be super disjointed.
