We won 50 games last yr and was one game away from the ECC while dealing with some heavy injuries. The thread and question is more about, due to basically swapping IHart with Mikal. Does Thibs look to emphasize his wings more with Mikal, OG, Hart, DDV while playing smaller at the C position. Thus also looking to operate at a faster pace?
Or does the pace remain the same even with the smaller lineups he will probably look to send out?
As mentioned earlier. I can see a Brunson, Hart, Mikal, OG, Precious lineup used more for trapping, intercepting passing lanes, forcing TOs for fast breaks.
Great questions.
Boils down to: Does more wing players - probably more Mikal, Precious, Deuce and less iHart/C - mean a different style of play ie. less rebounding?
And would the more wings over bigs affect pace? Or whatever the change would be for the roster composition
