'25 Playoff Rotation Predictions: A Collaborative Deep Dive

[F Gump]

we'll probably see Christie starting in some games where defense is the priority. dude has been so consistent and efficient since he became a mav he definitely deserves a try in the starting five. even playing off the bench he still got starter minutes the past few games.

I agree that Christie is starter quality, but if everyone is healthy, I don't see who he replaces. None of these are weak on defense except Kyrie, and Christie's certainly not starting at PG. I think he's 6th man for now.

C - Gaff/Lively
PF - AD
SF - PJW
SG - Klay
PG - Kyrie

He's certainly the Next Starter Up if any of AD, PJW, or Klay are out, however.
