Mavs rotation

That's a good point, and I'm sure they want Green to be something here. How could they not? 

I'm just seeing a ton of wings (hell yeah!) and I'm not extremely confident that he's better than any of them right now. My best guess is that he finds himself in early competition with Sterling Brown and Burke for 4th guard minutes. Those are different kinds of players, obviously, but I can make make a fairly believable argument for any of the three of them taking that minor role (not many minutes, honestly) and I just don't know how clear it can be right now how that will shake out. 

If it's Green who becomes the most regular occupant of that role, was Sterling Brown a good use of the BAE? 

I guess it's also possible that they REALLY want to play 5-out, like a lot, and Kleber will share minutes at the 4 with DFS (like more than DFS has played there in the past). That would probably open up a bigger backup role for Green to take some minutes behind Bullock and DFS (though still not a ton, right?). 

Or, maybe it's even more drastic and they're going to more consistently play two guards with Luka. That would mean Sterling Brown and Green are probably both very needed as regulars. 

Idk...it's fascinating. As much as I hated to see Carlisle go, I admit that the unknown aspect of all of this is intriguing.

Ya man, until as soon as the last couple preseason games, I think it is almost impossible to solidly know what this team will look like. Just having Kidd here makes everything we know an unknown!


I mean, could turn out that he coaches close to the same system as RC, but to be confident in KP as a C in Kidd’s system should not be a thing. If anything, the lack of big wings (we currently only have Maxi…and KP if that’s what Kidd figures him to be) would say that is Kidd’s thinking.
