Post Trade Deadline Rotations/Playing Times

Post #1 » by **BigSlam** » Fri Mar 16, 2012 3:38 pm

Now that the trade deadline has passed, we know who is on the roster, we have had 3 months to see what we have what should our line ups/playing time/rotations look like over the final month and a half before the end of the season?

PG: DJA - Kemba - Higgy
SG: Hendo - Reggie - Hammer
SF: Mags - UPS
PF: T2 - DJW - *Boris
C: Biz - Mully - Mexicat - Gana

* = the only other roster change might be buying out Boris.

Provide your MPG for each player and the line ups you would like to see (eg: never, ever in the history of ever have DJW and Mully out there - unless we are up by 50)

I can be on board with that but Kemba should get the majority of the minutes or at least close out most of the games since DJA is likely gone this offseason.

pg: dja (26), kemba (22)
sg: hendo (32), reggie (12), kemba (4)
sf: mags (30), ups (15), reggie (3)
pf: najera (20), tyrus (20), djw (8)
c: biz (35), mully (13)

and like slam said, never ever in the history of ever have the oklahoma turnstiles on the floor at the same time.

Starters:
PG: Kemba /30min
SG: Hendo /35min
SF: Mags /20min
PF: Mully /25min
C: Biz /35min

2nd team:
PG: DJA /20min
SG: Reggie /15min
SF: UPS /20min
PF: T2 / 25min
C: Gana /15 min

Depending on matchup, switch mully between C and increase T2 minutes and despite the plan, leave in anyone who is hot, which silas has a problem doing

PG: DJA
SG: Hendo
SF: Maggette
PF: Tyrus/UPS (that's right, I'd like to see UPS used against smaller line-ups)
C: Biz

Bench:
Kemba (whenever DJA starts sucking)
Reggie
UPS
Najera
Mully

White only gets off the pine when Najera needs to be rested a game. Diop, Boris, Carroll, and Higgins are perma benched or let out for garbage minutes to shame the starters.

Play Tyrus as much as possible to see if he can play himself out of this godawful slump, it's not like him coming off the bench is working and he's getting paid enough already.

Bismack needs to average 30+ from here on out, and Tyrus needs to continue to play. For the rest, go with whoever has the hottest hand that night.

Yeah, that sounds pretty good. Would have Tyrus start though.

I'd like to see more Mullens and Biz on the court at the same time.

Give them a start and see how they go.

If we're trying to secure #1, Mully and DJ White has to happen.

It just has to.

I'd rather see Diop with Mully. We will still lose, but there will be some defence and rebounding.

Really wish people would stop saying "secure number 1". There is a 75% chance that we will not get the #1 pick. Instead of Anthony Davis we need to start looking at Gilchrist, Barnes, Robinson, etc. (Drummond is terrible )

Does anybody have a better chance? No.

25% of getting the #1 is higher than everybody else
75% of not getting the #1 is lower than everybody else

Diop has gotten really obese by NBA standards, his vertical is like... nothing now.

He's no where near Olliver Miller, Eddy Curry or even Sean May fat yet.

There's enough fat inside those three to power the arena on oil for the next year.

I would too. I have a sneaking suspicion that Mullens would be better suited for playing PF. His height would help compensate for being soft against a lot of PFs, especially smaller line-ups. The difference b/w Mullens and Nowitzki is really just the fact that Dirk is ungodly good at shooting and a bit better at dribbling and rebounding. Other than that, they'd present really similar match up problems.
