2021-2022 ROSTER TALK: [ARCHIVED]

[DanSchwartzgan]

Think we should hold our horses on fantasy trading THJ. 

200 min: Luka + Brunson + Bullock + DFS + Powell = Net Rating 11.7

95 min: Luka + Brunson + THJ + DFS + Powell = Net Rating 12.3

Let's not forget THJ is a guy who can single handedly win a playoff game or two and the Mavs now have depth if he's not making shots. Personally I hope he makes it back for the postseason, especially if Bertans can't get his shooting on track.

Interesting.  I did the same thing subbing Maxi for Powell.  The Bullock lineup had a net rating of 1.1.  The THJ lineup is -24.4.  Minutes are only 80 and 34, so Super Small Sample Size Alert.  Your sample sizes are much more reasonable.

To get a larger sample size, you can go to four-man lineups and put Luka, Brunson and DFS as three of the slots.  Here is where people stand in terms of Net Rating as the fourth to that group in a four-man lineup:

484 Min.  Powell   5.4
365 Min.  Kleber   0.0
338 Min.  Bullock  12.7
212 Min.  THJ       (1.6)
168 Min.  KP         (3.9)
55  Min.   SD        17.2
41  Min.   Green    25.3

If you change the date range to start at 12/31, Powell moves to 6.7, Maxi to 1.6, Bullock to 9.6, Hardaway to (5.0) in 11 games and 65 minutes and SD and Green are the same as all of their minutes in this group are since 12/31.
