    Melo is playing the 4 so the Thunder wing combo is primarily going to be Roberson and George.

    yeah good point. I don't consider wings as a true label anymore. All these perimeter players are now interchangeable. westbrook is basically included in this bc hes not really a pg.

    The 4 is often a wing in today's NBA, not really the case for the Spurs or the Pelicans. But aside from that, yeah.

    Paul George, Roberson and Melo are usually going to run the wings on the break. That's all it means.

    theres going to be plenty of times when roberson is glued to the bench for being such a liability

    PG and Melo are more seasoned, the whole Minnesota squad is still very young and do not really know to play winning basketball yet. Once they get there they will be great.
