lineup for final play of 1st half today: new wrinkle for the postseason?

[pearl31]

didn't see any posts on this yet, if there are and I missed them, my apologies.

So JB had the 3 guards (Scoop, BT, DW) along with KJ and JS as the 5 on the floor for the last play of the 1st half. Unfortunately, it resulted in a brick 3 from Brandon. But, is this something JB may use more in the coming weeks?

No. It was last play of the half and he took Fab out b/c:
a) he didn't want him picking up a cheap one
b) he could spread the floor with shooters/slashers

Next time we see that lineup is in the exact same situation, that's it.

well, then it's odd we hadn't seen it once previously in a last-posession-of-the-half situation.

I hope not. That was a miserable play that made it six (maybe 7) straight possessions coming up empty. Thought Scoop or Dion should have taken the shot. Brandon looked like he rushed it.

Ball handlers. A situational thing. Bye the way, did anyone notice the 1-2-2 to match up with Ricky's wrinkle ofence.

He's had the 3 guard line-up in at the end of games before.
