    As currently constructed, this team is much deeper than the 2017 squad who won 65 games
    I hope Ime can use a deep rotation, particularly in the playoffs
    Preserve older guys on back to backs so everyone stays fresh for the post-season
    Its gonna be an exciting and competitive training camp

    Yes, a much better team but also not as many young players to grant them breaks.

    So anytime Udoker runs said player into the ground, we would notice.

    Where are the guards lol, other than FVV, Reed, Holiday, I don't see many pure guards.

    They pay more. I'm assuming at this point he has accepted a ring is not in his future, he tried. He is old, only so many paychecks left, gotta maximize that money.

    We need to play KD and FVV under 30mpg in the regular season, and rest them on at least some back-to-backs. Absolutely vital to keep them healthy and fresh legs for the playoffs. Also don't want to see any more of this crap where Amen is out there 40 minutes a night. This team is going to be a top-4 seed anyway, barring major injury problems (knock on wood).

    Check facts.
    Green and Brooks are the only players "out" from last year.
    If a straight swap for Durant and Finney-Smith, then fast breaks have increased. Both guys we got have better transition stats than Green, whose are better than Brooks.

    Being young is not the only component of either getting out, or being good on the break

    Our wings can play SG or SF.

    For pg we already have 3.5 pgs.

    If you look at OKC they have Cason Wallace, Hartenstein, Chet and Jaylin Williams and the rest are wings sg/sf combo including SGA.

    Who would win, our second unit or the starters the year before we drafted Sengun and Green?
