Yes in a typical season. This season however, we might look at a situation where Luka is out off playoffs due to covid, or maybe KP. Then depth is crucial. Other teams stars maybe out as well at crucial times in playoffs and there might be playoff games without Luka and Lebron. Then how Green performs and our rookie class is crucial, and difference between Bane that shoots extremely well and Green that just made one shot, is a huge factor. The value of depth will be much higher than usual. We will have JRich, Brunson, Maxi, DFS for playoffs. But we have to prepare for that we might not have KP, Luka, THJ etc. etc. The depth will be the key defining thing in this type of exceptional season. Whoever drafted well, might get the reward of that much sooner than usual.
