even at his age he is still one of the more disruptive defense guards in the NBA.

If you are saying we are trading Deuce then sure but where does he fit otherwise? You think he wants to be the 11th man in a 10 man rotation?

I would suggest Deuce starts. It the way to truly unlock KAT, which seems to be a priority.

So you want a bench unit of Smart-Clarkson-Hart-Yabu-Mitch? 3 non shooters around Clarkson is a horrible idea.

Yah, I think Dadiet will get there too. He has the defense and knows how to play off ball. He just needs time.

He dealt with injury too last season. I see the potential there. Just a matter of can he put it all together and how long will it take. We will have 4 inexperienced players with very little actual game time to speak of plus 3 two-way players. Which ones are real NBA players? TBD. Two look promising one shows flashes and the other four have t played yet. Plenty of development to be done.

Dadiet and Huk better show something soon or they'll be off the Island.

Who in the world want a hockey lineup for there bench?

KAT should always be playing when Brunson isn't so you have someone to run the offense through. Then you should stagger Mikal and OG as much as your can as well.

I have PTSD with Thibs rotation.

Let Hart and Mitch be early in the qtr subs. They can't put there center on Hart with Mitch in the game because Mitch will murder them on the offensiv glass.

You can run a lot of Smart/Clarkson/Bridges/Yabu/KAT off the bench.

That maintains roughly 5 out with that lineup as.

Brunson/McBride/Hart/OG/Mitch would be my early in qtr first sub lineup.

I thought Mitch and Hart in the same lineup was a net negative?

In the regular season with small sample size it was. But in playoffs with small sample size it wasn't.

The key is McBride with Brunson and or KAT. Those were our best lineups by far in the playoffs.

Hart will still play with KAT. It will just be with the second unit more because benches usually don't have as much size to matchup and put a wing on KAT like starting lineups usually have.

Ew, Giannis is weak

robillionaire · Post #1618 » by **robillionaire** » Thu Jul 10, 2025 1:15 pm

probably…… we’ll see…..

we’re getting Giannis confirmed

Jeffrey · Post #1619 » by **Jeffrey** » Thu Jul 10, 2025 1:25 pm

These big time trades will happen after the dust is settle and a week before training camp. That's when stars ask out because current season is bleak. But if report says it is true that Giannis was pulling the string on Myles Turner and okay to stretch Dame for 5 years. That's on him, if he whines and b.itches about how they are fcked with cap space. THATS ON HIM

Deuce/Shamet/Pac
Mikal/Hart
OG/Yabu
KAT/Mitch/Huk

Diawara and 2way players fill out the roster,

Starters avg around 32 mpg. Bench avg around 16mpg. 10 deep with insurance everywhere. Flexibility/versatility. Tighten up the rotation as the playoffs near like sane people do. Everyone else ready off the bench.

Clarkson is not a 16 mpg player though. He has averaged less than 24 mpg for a season only once in his entire career.

He'll be in the running for 6MOTY with the Knicks.

No

Come January or February, I'll circle back to this exchange and see where we stand!
