What is our Death Lineup? We know what the Warriors' death lineup is: Curry, Klay, Iggy, Donkey, & Durant Games this lineup was used: 38 Minutes used this season: 178 Offensive rating: 124.1 Defensive rating: 95.0 Net rating: +29.1 (wow!) *Boogie Cousins actually makes their lineups worse in most cases.* So, what has been our death lineup this season? Well, its kinda complicated because we've never really been healthy enough to find one until after the all star break. So, i decided to use that date as the starting point, and here are my lineup candidates... Candidate #1... CP, Harden, House, Tucker, & Clint Games this lineup was used: 7 Minutes used after ASB: 27 Offensive rating: 125.0 Defensive rating: 88.3 Net rating: +36.7 (wow!) Candidate #2 (our starters)... CP, Harden, EG, Tucker, & Clint Games this lineup was used: 18 Minutes used after ASB: 247 Offensive rating: 108.5 Defensive rating: 98.3 Net rating: + 10.2 Candidate #3... Harden, EG, House, Tucker, & Clint Games this lineup was used: 8 Minutes used after ASB: 49 Offensive rating: 115.3 Defensive rating: 101.8 Net rating: +13.5 I hope we use these last few games to experiment more with candidate #1 to see if it is this deadly with more minutes together. That may be our death lineup. Do you see any other Rockets' lineup that has caught your eye since the all star break?
Idon't even have to yesss to tell you it's Cp3 Harden Ego Tucker Capela Go m good OP tho and thanks for the numbers and effort
so our two lineups with the best point differential have danuel house.... yea, certainly not worth more than a minimum contract
It is. I trust it over everything. It's the best at switching defensively. It has the best chemistry and continuity. It has the best offensive balance. It's the death lineup.
I’d say group 1 deserves some more time together in these last few games to see what we have. Our starting group likely spends the majority of its minutes against the toughest opposing lineups.
I was surprised when I saw this... Harden, EG, Shump, Tucker, & Clint 8 games 18 minutes Offensive rating: 112.8 Defensive rating: 81.6 Net rating: +31.2 (wow!)
Really if you wanna dissect these lineups look at it this way. Harden, tucker and capela are in all 3. So they are automatic. Cp3 is in 2, ego is in 2, house is in 2. Cp3 is obviously also a lock. So it comes down to house vs ego. I'm sure it depends mostly on who's hot but it's also who do you trust? Ego has proven to be clutch. Hes a veteran. Hes the better switch defender. He has the chemistry and continuity. Hes the last choice and hes a part of the death lineup.
