That x is where Thybulle was going to fit and can Omax be that person instead?
I keep seeing people pencil in Holmes as a starter…maybe, but I think it’s more likely that Powell is the starter, imo. Either way, Kleber will be the 5 to close games (probably will be closing there, even if they trade for another center).
Point being, I’m not sure they are thinking about linking Kleber and Powell’s minutes together like that.
I’m not saying Kleber should never play another minute at the 4, because he can still function there in extreme big lineup situations, but to me, Omax and Williams are now the guys you want guarding Durant, KL, LeBron, etc. I think that’s your 4 rotation. You should have a foot speed advantage against anyone, and you will match up well with just about anyone, athletically.
