But I get the context of seeing PJ as the expendable one. I just tend to see Rez as more of a five than a four (and Santi is a great fit next to him), and Coop being better off splitting time at three/four than being a full time three.
I would just be strongly assertive that, the Lively issues notwithstanding, the roster doesn’t make sense without one of them outgoing.
Well yes, I suspect some frontcourt player is outgoing. At least I think so. If they did nothing, that would be OK, but I don't expect it.
Rez played the majority of the SL game at center, but I can't be certain what that means. When he was drafted, he didn't often play center at Michigan. Maybe they'd like to see him get some reps in the hopes that he can fit easily in either position.
Gafford is the most one-dimensional player in the frontcourt. There are certain things he just can't do. So there is logic to moving him. But there is also some logic in moving PJW - since's he a pretty versatile player and may be more in demand. And really, does anyone think he should start a game with Flagg? I can think of more lineups that make sense to me.
The Clippers problem with Watson (and their lack of center help), and the LeBron move to wherever would help move things along.
