6. Three point shooting
7. At least one good passer in addition to the set-up man
Ok, so how to come up with line-ups based on that criteria? I think the best way is to break down which roles each player on the team can fill.
Billups 2,3,4,6
Hamilton 3,4,7 and maybe 6
Prince 1,3,4,5,6,7
R. Wallace 1,3,5,6,7
B. Wallace 1 (but man is he good at it!)
The starters are wonderfully balanced and guaranteed to play heavy minutes. | you forgot the chauncey is our best post up player. he absolutely destroys pretty much all pg's except baron davis in the post.
also i don't think every lineup has to be great at everything or balanced one way or the other. this year our second unit will be very powerful offensively. this can work for us some nights and other nights we will have to have some starters play with the second unit to provide that balance. good post though well thought out rotations.  |
