What I would LIKE to see, but most certainly won't, is:
JB, IQ, jHart, Obi, Mitch
I think it's *super* interesting how Thibs plays this.
I'd keep it simple and just start Obi and keep everything else the same.

I think Obi starts but if he is not playing well he will be the 1st sub and will just get his usual minutes. But if he clicks from the start, Thibs will let him play.

this.. Obi's gonna have to be great to break 20 minutes. Expect 8 guys and 30 minutes+ of IQ/JHart off the bench
Obi starts. He’s good enough to start and get 25-30 minutes but RJ will also see lots of time at the 4

Doesn’t necessarily have to be great. If he can average a double double and continue hitting from beyond the 3 point line we can still get Ws
Let's see if Thibs goes counter to expectations!
You need points in q1. IQ should probably start and start small. Might help RJ to have him play pf.

I’m down with Obi at PF over RJ - in fact I’m down with anybody over RJ.
Don’t mind IQ starting but would just slip Grimes to the 3 rather than take Hart out of our bench rotation or bench Grimes.
Given Brunson defensive issues — I really like IQ, Grimes, Hart, Obi and Hartenstein.
Mitch been giving us zilch last 30-45 days —- thinks he’s and underutilized Abdul Jabbar

This is what’s going to happen.
Though - could also see Thibs looking for an opportunity to get Deuce some mins against Garland/Mitchell — off the bench.
I agreee that Obi will simply be plugged into the starting lineup.
I think hartenstein will serve backup PF(primarily) and backup C (secondarily).
I think we will actually get to see Jericho Sims play about 8 minutes a game going forward.
Hartenstein will probably see 30+ minutes going forward.

I have him in there.
Jericho = Sims

My bad. Still, no Jericho, Mitch combo?

Jericho might be ok with iHart, not so much with mitch. They basically do the same things.
But if you think so, feel free to choose that live up.
