We tried that with Salmons in place of TWill. Granted TWill seems to be more pass-first, but still...no thank you. Especially since TWill and Tyreke both are pretty bad outside shooters.
It can work, I really liked that lineup with Jimmer, TWill, Evans, JT, and Cousins. Evans and TWill look great together on the defensive end of the floor. Now, you HAVE to have a shooter with them obviously because we all saw what happened in the Nets game, they just let TWill and Reke shoot as much as they wanted. This team simply needs to realize they need to use that off the ball movement and run things up high. Smart started the last game with some motion and the game was just so much better from then on. They got started on the right foot.
