Okay - so we have 6 players who JB will play. No PG and no NBA picks (Battle may sneak in but at this point I am not seeing it).
At anyway JB has 2 options - status quo (I am opposed to that and think of the definition of insanity) or at least try some unique options with the 6 people who play. Does anyone have any thoughts on anything that JAB could do (though we know he won't and that is fine).
If it was my team, starting Saturday I would play Tyus at the point. I'm not sure that would change results but again not the status quo.
I would also try some bolder changes such as try Marek at the top of the zone. Not quick obviously but understanding his length and angles which he seems to understand very well, may be effective in spots and give Battle or Howard a needed blow.
I think this teams biggest issue is mental fatigue and lack of basketball IQ. We need to stop pigeon holing positions and by some minutes when we can. I don't see what we have to lose . Let's mix and match odd combos - it may look like a clown show but not sure it's any more clownish than our current offensive structure.
