I actually think the current starting lineup is fine.  You have 4 guys who are capable of scoring 15+ points if they are playing well.  Give them the chance to play well.  Chewy is a complete frustrating wildcard, but you get a decent version about half the time.  And 2-3 times this year we absolutely needed him.  Buddy is a good change of pace off the bench.  If he gets hot from downtown, easy to move Eli/Frank to the bench while he does his thing.  Marek has his good games as the 5.  Either because of size of opponent, or because Chewy/Sidibe give you nothing.  Carey is there for a press, injury, foul trouble, etc.

This team has been incredibly inconsistent and messes with your head.  If we are going to go on any sort of run, we are going to need that lineup flexibility.  I think JB realizes this and has been willing to try some different options.  An optimist would say we have seen enough flashes from all 8-9 guys to think this can still be a team that can go far if they can gel.  Every single guy (exept Sidibe) has had a great game this year.

I'm somewhere in between.  It is very tough to predict what kind of team shows up.
