Why not?

Balancing the lineups I guess. Deni and Rui both get high usage in the 2nd unit.

They both should be high usage in the 1st unit!

It depends on Deni’s handles and competency at possibly starting at the 2.

Defensively he’s shown he’s a very capable defender on 3/4/5’s. But quicker moving 2 guards have troubles him at times.

Gil plays hard

I love the positionless lineups we've been playing all night. All of our forwards can shoot, pass and handle, so we don't need any stinkin' guards.

This is why I really wanted Simmons.

Deni schooling Irving for an and 1

I don't want to mess around and actually win this thing. We are still tanking, after all.

This is beautiful! We are just hunting mismatches in the post.

THIS team is fun.

Deni suffocating Irving defensively!

Cassius Winston looks pretty decent I will say. I've liked his decision making and he doesn't look scared out there.

Rui with 4 assists. His basketball IQ has improved significantly

Trez was great in many ways, but the team used him as a crutch too much and it killed the offenses motion often.

And killed the spacing too.

It's making all the difference in the world have Bryant and Gill out there to prevent the Nets from packing the paint. We can then just give the ball down low to whatever forward is being guarded by shrimps like Kyrie and Mills

Kispert just a little too much english all night.

But before we get too carried away, let's not overlook that this is a pretty terrible Nets team outside of Irving.

And Kuzma gets his first triple double, not trying to force it, it came to him.

Kuzma with the triple double!
