Calling guards "wings" doesn't make them not guards. Bullock, THJ, and Green are tweener SG/SF. Ditto with Brown. So you've got 6 guards in the rotation in Kyrie, Green, Hardy, Bullock, THJ, and now Brown. Luka as a PF/SF. Maxi who played 929 minutes last year. Holmes who last year played 349 minutes. Lively who played only 20 minutes in college and was completely invisible in many games. OMax, a rookie. Heavy minutes for McGee. And bringing back Powell?????????
You are presenting a Luka exit plan.
You do realize that the original definition of a "wing" is a tweener SG/SF right?
I think your projections are simplistically looking at just the last season. There is a lot more context to work from than that.
The Luka exit plan bit is a beating. The FO probably has a better idea of what will make Luka happy than you or I do. It looks like focusing on character guys and a longer term plan is what they are going with. They don't appear to be worried about going through some growing pains this coming season as long as its growing pains and not dysfunction.
