    EG is a beast as a creator so I want him to spend most his minutes with only one of Wall or Harden. Relegating him to just spot up shooter is a major waste of his talents. We have to stagger the 3.

    This is going to be a great season. A coach that mixes his players talents and keeps pressure on the other team at all times. Gordon will get his minutes and be more effective playing with in himself. As expected Harden is our back up point guard. Good job coaching, COACH !

    You still might have to rest Wall some or sit him on b2bs so I'm sure that EG will still get some starts

    EG plays better without harden so I like him and cousins coming in with the second unit

    I'm not against him, but don't most teams just do a 9 man rotation? Other players get in only due to injuries or spot minutes (a few minutes for fouls, match-ups, and blowouts).

    Like EG should. That’s his natural position.

    I'm more interested to see when Gordon comes in to replace Wall: Harden, Wood, Gordon, PJ, and House. And then when this group: Wall, Cousins, Gordon, Nwaba, Tate.

    I don't mind Eric coming off the bench

    Reducing his mins is probably a good idea too.

    Wall
    Harden Gordon
    House. (Nwaba/McLemore/Green)
    Tucker
    Wood Cousins

    Solid 8 man rotation.
