    i’ll tell you right now. that lineup with a stretch 5 will win the chip. as long as that stretch 5 isn’t PJ tucker.

    we can sacrifice defense if we have a 5-out offense — literally everyone will be able to get a layup or pass it out to the open man. imagine russ going downhill surrounded by kawhi pg harden and another 3pt threat. and all the screen and roll actions. it’s the best offense in the league.

    PJ was that guy on the rockets, but sadly I don’t think he can be the 5 for a championship team anymore. maybe I’m wrong. he sacrifices too much on the defensive end and doesn’t make up for it on offense.

    if we can’t get a stretch 5 we ideally want an elite rim protector to make up for our backcourt defense. zubac can’t shoot and his interior defense isn’t great, so he doesn’t really check any of the boxes
