TATE - 6'4 230 lbs Nwaba 6'5 219 lbs House 6'6 220 lbs Tucker 6'5 245 lbs Cousins 6'10 270 lbs Ego 6'3 215 lbs Brown 6'5 219 lbs I personally would like TATE to start of NWABA and Cousins to start over PJ I think Harden, Wall and Wood are secure in their spots. No one else is. Wall - Harden - Tate - Cousins - Wood seems like a MEAN lineup EGO - Nwaba - Tucker and Ego coming off the bench Rocket River
There's no need to rush Tate. I like him coming off the bench in the second unit next to another high-energy backcourt player in Wall. He will end up the starter for us soon anyway.
Can't depend on Boogie to play meaningful minutes... He's making himself into Zubac, good for short stretches.. But not because of ability but because of his temper and perception from the refs...
Wall, Harden, Wood, possibly Tucker.. Do you not watch him in games? Who is better and why? EG? EG isn't reliable, Tate has been. House? No.
Harden, Wood, Wall, Boogie, Tucker for sure are still better and more proven than Tate. While EGo is not my favorite player and as much as I like Tate, he is not better than EGo. Not yet at least. But EGo has been 6MOY, starter and has put up 50 - Tate has not done any of that nor is he capable of doing any of that. Even now, EGo is still the better player. Maybe even BMac too. House is just dead to me.
I just think you can't start Nwaba and also have Wall out there. Wall can get away with that because the other 4 guys can be shooters...unless you put Nwaba out there than the other 3 guys are shooters. I think the spacing is all messed up with our starting lineup with Nwaba and Wall out there and Wood likely shooting badly because of his knee. I'm fine with our usual lineup with House. I would like to see more minutes with Cousins at 5 and Wood just being out there for length. If guys like KD and Giannis and AD can play with centers than Wood can too, not that he's those guys but he can play on the perimeter as easily as he can play down low offensively. It might even be preferable for him because he might not just have the mentality and instincts to be a great rim protector and rebounder. I'd really like to see how that even looks and if it looks good then maybe you can swing a trade for another backup center to go with Cousins and just Wood be more of that same role Durant has of just being a long guy out there that can make outside shots but also score in a variety of ways.
The argument wasn't who had a better career or who is proven it is who is better now this season. Boogie can't stay in a game and the only thing that is sharp right now is his passing. He does get the yao ming treatment on being fouled though so he is probably better than his game suggests. Tate has really good reactions with the ball. He counters people who are handsy and comes up with lose balls at a crazy rate. His off the ball presence is insanly good. He makes great cuts and even has good passing presence. He is a dreymond green type player with better ball control. If he adds a decent 3 point shot to his game he will be one of the biggest steals. Wish he was 3 inches taller with a longer wing span.
They'll get their pockets picked. Maybe situational against the Lakers. Tuck and Cousins are way too slow.
If there was a way to put PJ into Bruno’s body. Maybe by visiting a Chinese restaurant, I saw it in a movie once.
