    Could this be the answer for the Eddie KT debates

    Make Eddie the 3 on offense but the 4 on Defense?
    and vice versa for KT?

    Would this . . could this . . .. work?

    They had a similar idea for using Griffin and Taylor at the same time. I never understood that one. Was it Griffin as a defensive 3 and offensive 4, with Taylor playing the 3 on offense and 4 on defense? Or vice-versa? Neither made much sense to me since neither are very good in the low post.

    With KT, it makes more sense because he needs to be down low on offense and Griffin needs to be down low on defense to get blocks. But, Taylor is still coming back: where do we put him?

    Why not put Mo in at C and backup PF? I could see Mo, KT and Griffin in at the same time. Mo played center part of the time last season and didn't do too bad. Of course it depends on the matchup and we can switch between Mo and Cato at C.

    Offense
    3 Eddie
    4 KT
    5 MoT

    Defense
    3 KT
    4 MoT
    5 Eddie

    I think we will be in good shape at the 3, 4 and 5 spot as long as everyone stays healthy.

    I think we will see a lineup of Eddie, MoT and KT at least a few times over the course of next season. That should be interesting.

    I'd hate to see someone get completely mauled.
