Phoenix: Booker, CP3, Bridges, Ayton (+ Cam Johnson a 6MOY contender)
GSW: Curry, Poole, Wiggins, Klay
Memphis: Morant, Bane, Brooks, JJJ
With Utah, they really only had 3 legit scorers with Mitchell, Bojan and Clarkson...and in that series usually only 1/3 of that trio would play well every game.
This is where not having another established scorer like THJ will hurt us. We have no bench, especially considering Dinwiddie is essentially another starter in mintues.
We have three: Luka, Brunson, DFS.
But we have several more players than the other teams remaining in playoffs capable reaching 15-17 pts any game dictated by how defense plays: Bullock, Maxi, Powell, DFS.
Agree on bench tough. Green needs to step up and show why we drafted him over Bane. This could be difference to these playoffs. We probably need some production out of Burke as well.
