    What will our lineups look like now that Eric Gordon, Bruno Fernando & Gary Mathews are officially gone.

    Im looking forward to more time for Tari Eason and Josh Christopher.

    It will probably be the same as those back to backs that EG didn't play. They'll probably start KJ with Tate as the 6th man and will probably try out Justin Holiday in Mathews' role.

    There may be a bump in guys' minutes but I don't see this as some huge change to the way we play......unfortunately.

    While TyTy rides the bench. Play him or send him back to the G league.

    Sengun/Garuba
    Jabari/Tari
    KJ/Tate
    Jalen/JC
    KPJ/TyTy

    but it should be:

    Sengun/Jabari
    Tari/Jabari/Garuba
    KJ/Tate
    Jalen/KPJ/JC
    TyTy/KPJ

    Need to cut Nix so TyTy and Jaygup get more minutes.

    Still hard to believe Nix is still in the NBA. I completely forgot about KJM. I agree with a lot of y’all are saying. Both Tari and KJM need to be starting. Jabari and Tate off the bench

    but yeah I’m expecting more of the same but with more minutes for the younger guys

    Kaminsky in the starting lineup for sure. Maybe start Jalen at center and Jabari at PG.

    Silas will assuredly put Boban in place of Bruno minutes.

    I like the size in the backcourt & speed at the 5, then Sengun can have a Ginobili role. So many options and opportunities. Luck we have coach to figure it all out.
