Reaves is obviously my favorite player and it’s very early, but AR is not getting an appropriate role in the offense with this starting lineup. Conversely, Gabe Vincent is getting too large of a role offensively with the bench unit. Swapping Reaves for Gabe makes a ton of sense to me.
Vincent/D’lo/Prince/Bron/AD
Reaves/Reddish or Christie/Vando/Rui/Wood or Hayes
That is the most logical rotation to me. Vincent gets the toughest guard matchup defensively. Reaves saves his legs for offense.
Obviously AR would close games and play 30+ minutes, but he’d be better utilized getting less minutes with D’lo/Bron/AD.
Id fuck with firing Ham given his lack of awareness to what works and what doesnt. He stupid or some shit always going small when the two big with AD/Wood or Rui Bron AD lineup. Pissed how he threw the game by his stupid rotations.
Doesn’t matter who starts, but his lack of flexibility to play dudes that ‘works’ and not stick with a stupid planned lineup.
Tells you what is lacking on this team: decent coaching.
