    He should probably let his "twin" know, then.

    Great, now will Porter and Silas agree?

    Do the people who thought Bruno should start over Alpi agree now as well?

    Good one. At first I didn't know who "twin" was. Now I do.

    How about the coach moving the "twin" to his proper role, which would be a 6th man role.

    Why not try a lineup of

    Green
    KMJ
    Tari
    Bari
    Alpi
    • Two oh-so-important "lob threats" (Jalen, KMJ)
    • Two long, scrappy defenders (Tari, Bari)
    • The Inside-Out Orchestrator (Alpi) who has 4 targets to pass to who can all cut and who can all shoot the three
    KPJ can be 6th man and bring instant offense together with Gordon (as long as he is here) and Josh Christopher - Tate and Garuba can play the defensive part.

    What Silas said:

    "I'm sure he [Jokic] sees himself in Alperen," coach Stephen Silas said. "It's great to have an MVP to say that one of our players is a good player who can tap into defenses in a similar way that he does."

    What he was thinking:

    "Still not going to get him the ball though hehehehehe"

    KPJ doesn't need to go to the bench, he needs a coach that has enough confidence in his own playcalls that will show him how successful he will be playing within the system. KPJ got his bag, and if he starts being efficient and scoring more while playing off ball, you don't think he'll do it?

    They ran a similar lineup the night KPJ was out ..... it was an unmitigated disaster. They couldn't get the damn ball across the timeline.

    Note: as i stated in the other post, at least 15 min filter was on. And sometimes it can span across multiple pages.


    But yea, if adding a filter on just Eason, I don't think we've seen that combo.

    I'd be happy if Silas was not so quick with the hook.

    Let Sengun play with the fouls and see what happens.

    Baffling that we haven’t seen that lineup yet.
