I get why Nick tweeted it, and I've been known to throw out "way too early" statistics on occasion, but even I wouldn't cite this data.
The most used With Luka/Without KP lineups have played a total of 13 and 9 minutes.
Powell/DFS/THJ/Luka/Brunson is +21.9 in 13 minutes
Powell/DFS/THJ/Luka/Maxi is -2.1 in 9 minutes (is the hot take that Brunson is 24 points of Net Rating better than Maxi?)
The most used without Luka/With KP lineups have played 10 and 3 minutes
The starters (including both KP and Luka) have played a total of 40 minutes together (-23.8). The next closest five man lineup with both has only played 5 minutes together.
There are a total of 17 minutes with 7 combinations of lineups with the two stars, but without Powell. -64.3, -43.1, +70, -75, -75 and one minute stints that are +100 and +50.
There are only two minutes of KP + Luka + Powell minutes other than the starting lineup data cited above.
BTW, the starters have played 18 second half minutes together (if you really want to get silly). They are +19.2 with a D rating of 91.9. HOWEVER, they are -56.7 in their 22 minutes together in the first half of games.
