A little out of the box with this idea but I’d start Lively tomorrow night. Especially if KP is out. Serves 2 purposes. Give a boost to Lively’s confidence (the Mavs need him to be a positive in this series). Plus he matches up better with Horford starting. Also, it allows Gafford to play more traditional Center on D vs guarding 5-out, with the Kornet matchup off the bench.
Also, I would reduce DJJ’s minutes and give more to Exum. It feels like Jones Jr. has sort of run out of gas and Exum is looking more and more playable.
