What, no Dort?

Xavier Tillman being in here is certainly interesting.

I gave that a lot of thought. I almost did. But I wanted both Thompson brothers to be on the same team.

Derrick White would have to start and one of the Thompsons goes to the bench, otherwise not enough shooting. Even then it's a bit light on offense to be viable.

Team needs more shooting, can’t put Jokic out there with a bunch of guys who can’t score.

Yeah. Pack the paint and dare them to beat you from outside.

This team would be amazing defensively but feels like they'd struggle to score 100 points consistently. Like the SL is so bad shooting wise, it's kind of insane

I feel like this would be a second round team at best but most likely lose in the first round.

Starters should be:

Jokic
Amen
Caruso
White
Holiday

And now 4/5 starters are viable from 3. This team would win the title.

You'd need to manage the rotation properly to keep some shooting on the floor. I think I'd start Jrue, White, Herb, Amen, and Jokic; then have Caruso, Ausar, and Draymond off the bench? That gives us one guard, one wing, one big. I doubt Isaac or Tillman (lol) would really play much at all. Isaac maybe.

But I think it would be a very solid team and if they had a whole season to figure out the offense... why not? They could win a chip.

Top 10 defense all time, and the offense is anchored by a top 10 offensive player all time, and that team would have incredibly high BBIQ.
Yeah they’d be title favorites imo as long as they have a good coach who could change these rotations.
