How 'bout those lineups/configurations in 1st half last night?

[pearl31]

so, yeah, some of it due to Marek's foul situation, and also JB's displeasure w Griffin's play - but then even after he brought Marek back in, he was willing to play (at least for a few mins) Edwards at C and Marek at the 4, TOGETHER! And Buddy played a fair amount at the 3! And when Kadary first came in he subbed for Buddy and not JG!
maybe just a one-off anomaly, but maybe indication of willingness to actually change a wee bit as needed?

All I can say, bout friggin time

I think it was a function of the team we played. Edwards against more talented big men or just more physical teams will be the thing to watch.

Marek is playing tentative now since the tooth incident. I think he should wear a face shield and get back to being fearless

 

[upperdeck]

play a less physical team and it allows us to do more..

Is he wearing a mouth guard? I couldn't see one. Seems like the smart thing to do.

I don't think he is. agreed it would seem prudent. but then again he partakes in the lung darts

Pearl = nailed it!
Great to have an interior presence with Marek and Edwards in there together. If not, any combination of Quincy and those two guys would suffice. We need to protect the paint and rim, rebound and finish in the low post! That's what these three big guys do.

Kadary is obvious too. Wide open looks are created by him, whether he gets the assist or the guy he swings it to gets the assist. And it helped Joe out a ton. He was running wild with his doughy guns-a-blazing coming off the ball.

How did Jesse-MD-Q-Joe-KR do when they were together? I think this is the lineup that alot of people want to see.

One thing that is not mentioned is that Joe's handle is great for a 2G.

I believe if you give Kadary the ball, he and Marek would be a force working together
