I might roll with Beal, KCP, Rui, Kuzma and Bryant.
My bench would be potent: Holiday, Kispert, Deni, Bertans, Gafford
Sorry I have no clue because Montrezl Harrell isn't even in the top players I need to think about this some more
There's a lot to play with, though I don't see the synergy yet.
Holiday - Shooter, Drive and Kick, Defense
Beal - Downhill attack, running off screens
Kispert - outside shot, efficient offense in motion
Trez - High energy interior player --OR-- Rui- face up wing forward. Decent man D on opposing 3/4's
Bryant - Inside outside Big. High percentage scorer.
Outside shooting from AHol and Kispert gives Beal room to operate, run pick and roll/pick and pop with Bryant. Trez sets screens, picks, rolls hard, crashes glass. If Bryant's outside shot is hitting then there is more room for Beal and Trez to crash the interior while the opposing Bigs leave the paint. If Rui not Trez, then we can play 5 out on offense, and Rui's decent speed can get past opposing Bigs who chase him outside.
On Defense, Bryant stays at home near the paint, let Trez chase ranged bigs outside. Holiday slows the point of attack. With shooting and points elsewhere, and players like Kispert/KCP moving off the ball, Beal can spend a little more effort on D. But yeah this is not our best Defensive line.
2nd line ends up:
Ish? -- (ballhandler who can penetrate, veteran leadership) --OR-- Neto? (try hard outside shooting guard)
KCP -- outside shot, good in transition
Bertans/Kispert -- outside shot
Deni -- 2ndary playmaker especially in the open court
Gafford -- interior finisher
Outside shooters give space for Gafford inside, and options for Deni to pass to if his interior drive is blocked. On D Gafford erases mistakes, KCP is solid, Neto harasses players.
