88% of our results correlate to whether Warren scores 20 points or not.

Because if Warren doesn't, Booker has 0 help. I hope you're not insinuating Warren is more important to us than Book.

It's pretty important they both are on. When Booker scores less than 20 we are 2-7, with Warren, 2-9.

They're just rotating Monroe/Chandler/Len, playing only two of them every night.

Well, kinda makes sense. This way 2 of our centers get OK minutes. If we rotated all 3 of them every game, only 1 would get OK minutes, another would get kinda low minutes, and the 3rd wouldn't even have the chance to break a sweat, much less get into any kind of rythm.

Not sure anybody has mentioned it already, but Warren's defense looked very good in this game(man-to-man defense vs Tatum, Morris, Brown). It also shows in the box score - 4 steals.

Yes, he is very active with steals. He often comes up with a couple. Sometimes more. I notice he also disrupts and makes some people almost lose the ball. Just very active hands. He was in the top 10 in the league last year for a while before his head injury.
