|
|
Is there a thread for this yet? I didn't see one. My apologies in advance if I over looked it. I would like to see the Lakers rotation as follows:
PF-Davis (34) Kuzma (14)
SF-James (34) Kuzma (14)
C-McGee (24) Howard (24)
PG-Cook (34) Rondo (14)
SG-Green (24) Bradley (24)
-I just feel that Cook's shooting would greatly benefit the starting unit. He is also too small to put in the back court off the bench with Rondo. If he comes off the bench, it would have to be with Caruso imo.
-The coach keeps saying that he wants to stagger Rondo with Lebron to have a facilitator on the floor at all times, so I am assuming that he favors Rondo over Caruso.
-Rondo and Bradley have proven to be effective together in the back court when they were in Boston.
-AD wont have to play any minutes at center, which would make him happy. |

McGee/AD/Howard
AD/James/Kuzma
Kuzma/James/Bradley
Green/Caruso/Bradley
James/Bradley/Caruso/Cook
Wondering if AD/Kuzma/Bradley/Green/LeBron is the real death lineup _________________ Resident Car Nut.

I would start Bradley over Cook,Cook is too limited. And the center rotation would be McGee (24), Howard (16), AD (8). _________________ RIP mom. 11-21-1933 to 6-14-2023. |

I can see Cook getting some burn with starting rotation if other PGs are not hitting those spot up 3s
He is more than competent enough to bring the ball up court and make the initiating pass into the offensive set and at worst case is no worse than Rondo on D. _________________ (bleep) Kawhi |

I like the lineup but I'm also good with Bradley starting.
Sub out McGee and Green; bring in Kuz and Cook.
Sub out AD, Lebron, Bradley; bring in Dwight, Rondo, and KCP.
10 man rotation. |

That's funny. I missed that on my first read through, but I knew something looked wrong. _________________ "Every hurt is a lesson, and every lesson makes you better” |

That's actually a solid goal and clean way to look at what could be a long rotation with load management, yours looks more like a playoff rotation thought without roster moves.
So that's:
Bradley 24/Rondo 12/Cook 12
Green 24/KCP 12/Caruso 12
James 36/Kuzma 12
Davis 30/Kuzma 18
McGee 18/Howard 24/Davis 6
My guess would be some tweaks to that, though it's not as clean for chemistry like yours:
Bradley 20/Rondo 16(non LBJ min)/Cook 12
Green 18/Caruso 12/KCP 12/Bradley 6
James 32/Green 10/Kuzma 6
Davis 24/Kuzma 24
McGee 20/Howard 20/Davis 8
Until they trade a guard and pickup a defensive forward that is. |

Norvell should be on and Caruso off at least initially any of your guy's rotations.
McGee/D39/AD
AD/Kuz/Dud
LBJ/Kuz/Green
Green/KCP/Daniels/ZN Jr
AB/Rondo/Cook
