Ideal roles for the current roster

Guards: Luka/Kyrie/Exum/THJ
Forwards: PJ/DJJ
Bigs: Gafford/Lively/Kleber

Everyone else on the bench can start practicing their towel-waving unless there's an injury. Maybe Green can be inserted in a one-off situation if they have a slow start in a game but for all intents and purposes, his season is over after that injury. Pretty difficult to return from that and then be in any kind of condition to play at a high level in the playoffs. As long as Lively's injury isn't too bad then we shouldn't see any Powell.

I am not so sure Green won't get a chance at a bigger role, but yeah, it might work out like this. 

I'm also going to continue to ask if there will be enough minutes for BOTH Gafford and Lively. I have a feeling Lively's late injury puts him in position to get squeezed out just as much or more than what you're suggesting for Green. 

There are actually a few ways it could go, at this point, which is interesting.
