Just consider one more thing if you really want him playing 1/3 of his minutes at the '3'.

Every minute Lydon plays at the '3', you are making the explicit decision to play Robey or TT instead of one of Battle, White, Gillon, or Howard.  When Lydon plays at the '4', then 3 of those players get to be on the court. When Lydon is at the '3', then only 2 of them get on the court.

Personally I would rather have 3 of Gillon/White/Battle/Howard plus Lydon rather than have 2 of Gillon/White/Battle/Howard plus Lydon AND Robey/TT.

Not only is Lydon's skill set more valuable at the '4', but it also means we have more overall talent on the floor since all 4 of Gillon/Howard/Battle/White contribute more than Robey imo.

I think 20 minutes at the 4 plus 10 minutes at the 5 and a couple minutes at the '3' (for defensive scenarios) is my ideal scenario.

But as you mentioned earlier, JB is smart, whatever he comes up with has a high likelihood of being the correct decision.
