I think bench success is the key. As you said, our main lineup is very good and it gets even better with the injection of JB+THJ for Luka+Kleber. Problems appear when different combinations start mixing. Besides, the JB, THJ, JRich, DFS and KP lineup was feasting on opponents reserves, but was very ineffective against opposing starters in the fourth quarter. Brunson and Burke always look strange together, it just doesn't seem it works.

I think the pecking order is very clear and I don't expect many changes:
1. Luka
2. KP
3. DFS
4. JRich
5. THJ
6. JB
7. Maxi
8. Powell
The rest will get specialist episodes. If they perform great, they will see more time. If not, better luck next year.
