Taking stock once again
PG Luka .... then Walker (DNP-CD)
SG Din - Ntilikina (usually DNP-CD) ... then Hardy (D-League rookie) ... Green (Out)
SF THJ - Bullock .... then Pinson (DNP-CD)
PF DFS ... then nobody ... Kleber (Out) ... Bertans (Out)
C Powell - Wood (who knows who starts).... then McGee (DNP-CD)
That's seven rotation players and a deep backup. Only three can be counted on to score in double digits on most nights and none of those three are good defenders. No size, no rebounding, no rim protection. Kleber was really a lynchpin. Maxi Kleber. Are we really to the point that losing Maxi Kleber for 6 weeks turns this thing into a bottom-10 lottery team?
Hollinger thinks Dallas was one injury away but he pointed out Luka as the one guy that could force a tailspin. I'm not so sure.
