With that said, I'm not sure we are any closer to knowing what Carlisle will ultimately do. We have an embarrassment of riches and the only combo that probably doesn't work is WCS/Powell. When rotations tighten up in the playoffs, I suspect we will have five guys (Luka, Brunson, THJ, DFS and JRich) getting almost all of the 1, 2 and 3 minutes. We have five other guys who have a legitimate claim on the 4/5 minutes. We always needed some margin with KP's always uncertain health and Powell's uncertain recovery. But managing minutes for the five bigs (not to mention Boban) is going to be interesting.I don't think anyone is close to knowing what Carlisle will ultimately do. Even Carlisle. Maybe especially Carlisle.
But the Mad Scientist must be in heaven, with all these combos to tinker with. Fasten your seat belt!
