It’s been clearer than ever this team would be a lot more productive if Dlo had a bench role. He said he was going to be Derrick White. I’m not seeing Derrick White out there. It wasn’t until Dlo getting bench in the fourth quarter that we starting ramping up the comeback. Not because Reaves is a superior player or anything like that, but because Dlos skillset is not suitable to close games.
It’s early in the season, and Dlo will likely continue to start but at the same time, we are trying to preserve Lebron. And like Shaq said, we have to put teams away early if we want to limit Lebrons minutes. Only way to do that is to put our best lineup on the floor, and let Dlo come in off the bench with the green light.

He was good on defense but he was kinda out of sorts on Offense like everybody else, He can still start he just needs to have his minutes stagger with Bron through out the game.
Honestly, I don’t feel anyone is a lock other than Bron and AD.
I’d love to go
1 – [D-lo replacment]
2 – Gabe
3 – Bron
4 – AD
5 – Wood
6 – AR (offensive bench leader and spark plug)
But I don’t think Wood and Gabe are consistent enough or playing up to their ceilings. So we’re forced to go…
1 – D-lo
2 – AR
3 – Bron
4 – Prince/Vando
5 – AD
6 – unclear 6th man (maybe Rui for Bron is a key sub, but that doesn’t necessarily bring sn instant spark)
