2021-2022 ROSTER TALK: [ARCHIVED]

[Jakeospikez]

Don't really get what all the chirping is about now. Nothing really changed. Discussion before was always to find a center that can play in Kidd's switch & swarm or whatever it's called defense that can combine Maxi & Powell's skillsets while also being on Luka's timeline. All that talk was fine and still relevant. Need to keep Maxi, he's way too valuable. Pretty sure Powell will actually get to play this series after being erased by 2 horrible matchups vs elite traditional bigs. Lob threat might be a bigger factor than 5 out in this series.

Really a great thing to beat Phoenix and get a fresh series against another style of play. If the rest of the league starts going small, they probably crowd 3 point shooters way better and the value of an inside force goes way up. Even vs Phoenix, there were a good number of times where the ball was being swung around the perimeter and Maxi leaked into the middle. If he was great at winning 1 on 1 there, it'd be easy buckets. Coaching staff should know whether a certain player can work in the system and pass that along to the FO. Turner might work, just cause Ayton is getting beat doesn't imply anything for the Mavericks cause the Suns don't play Kidd's defense.
