This is the rotation I've been begging for. KP and Maxi sharing the PF. Always one of Powell/WCS on the floor. I wasn't expecting JRich to be a sub for the first time this season, but if there is a way to get enough D in a lineup with Luka/KP/THJ, sign me up. Here's a look at the five man groupings below that we ran in the first half:
Powell/KP/DFS/THJ/Luka
WCS/KP/DFS/THJ/Brunson (WCS/Brunson in for Powell/Luka)
WCS/Maxi/JRich/THJ/Brunson (Maxi/JRich in for KP/DFS)
Powell/Maxi/JRich/Luka/Brunson (Powell/Luka in for WCS/THJ)
End of Q1
Second quarter we saw WCS come in for Powell and moments later Burke came in for Brunson (this allows Brunson to come back for Luka when KP reenters). Then Powell came back when WCS got his 3rd foul. Then Brunson replaced Burke and we were JB and the four starters and then JB went out and we were back to the four starters the rest of the half.
Who knows if we will ever see this again or if it will work against good teams. But, I think it makes sense, though I would have probably preferred Green taking those Burke minutes.
