Offensive Style & System

Do you see Luke playing some 5? Would be interesting.

Oh, it could happen for sure. Remember Roy even went "ultra-small" a few times last season.

I can see it. It would be exciting, only thing is Luke is just not really a guy to alter shots at the rim. I feel like at some point there are diminishing returns to having a 4th and 5th good shooter on the floor, and we need to have more rebounding and interior defense. But I get that this would just be a change of pace lineup.

I would/will be extremely surprised to see Luke at the 5 at any point this season .. with the exception of the very early season "Roy pulls a substitution pattern out of his arse for chits and grins" which has become quite common.

 

[What Would Jesus Do?]

I'm not sure their minutes will end up adding up to 40 when all is said and done.

I'm being optimistic.

I don't see this happening very often, if at all. I see Brooks or Huff in the middle when we go small.

At 6-6, and with a 7 foot wingspan, we know Theo is a willing rebounder. His length and quickness allow him to play PF effectively. CJ is 6-8 and should be able to rebound effectively at the SF spot. So our "small ball" lineup isn't actually too small.

I want to see Joel, Jalek, Theo, CJ, and Brooks on the court together. That would be a very athletic lineup with playmakers and scorers.
