'25 Playoff Rotation Predictions: A Collaborative Deep Dive

[KillerLeft]

100% agree.  That trio (Grimes, PJ, Lively) gives you three levels of excellent defense around Luka and Kyrie.  If Grimes and PJ can hit threes, the Mavs are a title contender.  

Luka, Kai, Lively, PJ, Klay, Grimes, Naji are top 7

Gafford/Kleber are the 8th in the rotation depending on matchup and Kleber's health.  If Kleber gets hurt again, you could look for help at small ball center.
Exum/Hardy are the 9th in the rotation.  If Hardy doesn't improve and/or Exum is hurt, you could look for help at backup PG.

This continues to be my favorite way of expressing things succinctly. Recently, Dinwiddie has staked a claim on that 9th spot, moving clearly ahead of Hardy, but the principle is the same, I think, and we don't know how long this stretch of good play will last for him (a long time, I hope).
