'25 Playoff Rotation Predictions: A Collaborative Deep Dive

[MarkAguirreWrathofGod]

I’m still all in on Omax Island too! Have never really wavered. If he hits then this thing gets really interesting. We would have our Maxi replacement already in house and cheap. If we consider Naji/PJ/Din/Hardy our defacto “third creator,” by committee, then an effective 5-Out lineup becomes our other pressing near future need. If by the end of NEXT season Omax can be up to speed as Maxi’s replacement, we could go “small” with PJ, OMax, Luka front court.

My hope with OMax is that he doesn’t turn out to be “too nice.” I’m one of the board’s biggest Josh Green fans, but even I have to admit he was a little too tentative. The thing they both have in common is great motor. We have missed that energy at times from Josh this season and Omax supplied some of that against Toronto. That kind of hustle is infectious and good things seem to cascade from one guy just going balls out. Have seen Dwight Powell single handledly change games like this over the years too.
