Exactly my kind of thinking - you don’t need Thybulle for 35 minutes each and every game. But for example in a playoff series against the Thunder to make life difficult for SGA? He could be a real difference maker.

I would probably rather have Grimes play that role.  He is obviously a drop off on the defensive end, but he more than makes up for it on the other end of the court (which we are going to need against an elite defense like OKC).  I am very skeptical that Thybulle would make a big enough net difference to warrant the extra 11 mil in cap that we don't have available.
