He hasn't called players out by name, but he has given several indications that he prefers to be the 5, and that he prefers to be directly involved in the actions, playing off of the ball-handler, as opposed to spacing for Luka/someone else to run actions.
By default, this eliminates Powell and WCS, because they don't have the ability to play the spacer role. My hypothesis from a few days back, and what Dan is saying above, is that this creates a situation wherein Carlisle can only truly commit to three bigs on any given night. To play four of them consistently, another stretch big is required.
