I think my biggest issue with roster construction is that we have the biggest strongest point guard in the league and yet we are so small and weak.
Green is a perfect example of this. He’s too small to be our starting 3. Gets pushed around too easily. DJJ on the other hand is much bigger and just as fast as Green at guarding point of attack. The solution to get bigger is moving a player like DJJ to the 3 and getting a big 4(Siakam, Grant, WCj, DFS, Isaac etc). Then it would be logical to make Green a guard. The problem with that is he can’t dribble, create or shoot at a high level. I really like his energy and he has games where he takes over. I’m just not sure he’s in the long term plans
Hardaway another undersized player.
I read somewhere that Kyrie is the best rebounding guard per 36 in the entire NBA. I would think Luka is right there. For us to give up those killer offensive rebounds like we do it’s a game decider if our shots aren’t falling. Just a few personnel changes could really flip the script on how these games are decided
Offensively our biggest issue is the everybody stand around and watch Luka show. While this is often effective(especially in the playoffs) it can’t be our all game go-to style. We need a team wide effort to move to the fast pace style. Use the ISO style when needed and use the Kyrie fast style when needed. Just be decisive about it
