I agree that playing luka, Klay and Kyrie simultaneously on court would be challenging defensively. Klay will start for us but I guess Kyrie will be subbed out earlier in the first quarter and will get back earlier, then luka and Klay sit resting. so the overall playing time for luka/Kyrie will be reduced to a more sustainable level which will help them maintain good health and form through the long season and playoffs. kidd can find a way to start Klay without playing them three together for too long on court imho.
You and I are on the same page, and I hope for this too... i.e., Kidd can find a way to start Klay without playing them three for too long, and that having Klay should reduce Luka/Kyrie minutes to a more sustainable level and help them maintain good health.
I'm also hoping that being able to practice alongside Klay will improve everyone's shooting form. This last one may be an overly optimistic hope though, lol.
