In looking at all the recent championships, they not only had their two scoring stars (Kawhi/Pascal, Lebron/AD, Giannis/Middleton, Steph/Klay, Joker/Murray) , all but LAL had at least 2 guys who could easily get you 20pts on any given night (Lowery/VanVleet, Kuzma, Jrue/Brook, Wiggins/Poole, Gordon/PorterJr).
Who are those two guys on this roster?
Timmy and hopefully Hardy. Historically offense has never been the problem in playoff series losses since Luka. It has always been defense.

I agree. PF is his best fit, and I'm not sure chasing around guards takes any less energy than banging with PFs.
