In the playoff rotations, at least two of Luka/Kyrie/Klay will be on the court most of the time. In those cases Din's offense will have diminishing returns while the defense takes a hit. The alternative is likely Grimes, who is a better floor spacer and a better defender.
So, I get that this is sort of a new, different point, but I also think it's adjacent to the conversation Dundailis and I were just having, because inevitably, the teams who involve everyone on offense tend to get maximum effort from everyone on defense. At least when it comes to the good teams.
