Wow was not expecting this
Same line up that closer against the Celtics 😉
Here we go.
Interesting
they searching… Kerr can only have one rook in the starting lineup or he will explode
Luka will be a tough matchup because he’s a hunting god. Trial by fire.
Thank you so fucking much Kerr. Maximize the strength and not minimize the weakness. Love this move of separating Looney from Splash Bros.
I’m guessing Kerr decided while Podz can handle the ball, he can’t really run an offense yet. He probably wants CP3 as another floor general next to Steph similar to the Steph/Draymond dynamic.
As for TJD, seems pretty self-explanatory. Defenses can’t ignore him like they can Looney
Kerr will pull Paul quick and then re-insert with the second unit, right? If Doncic plays, we will definitely need to make a push whenever he sits, and Paul leading that unit is kinda key, IMO.
The point is to have cp out there to actively look for steph. He’s been going way too long in the first quarter without even attempting a shot recently. And obviously, looney is just not good enough offensively to maximize steph
Just sit Looney for 10 games. Please.
Excellent line up, excellent second unit. This is the way.
Let’s get it. Failure is absolutely not an option if we are any sort of serious team this season
MY DUDE TJD STARTING LETS GOOOO!!
Kerr wants to see if Podz can run the second unit
Just in case there’s a trade…lol
happy to see TJD start, but I don’t understand the obsession with 3 guards
would rather see Kerr experiment with a Steph, Klay, Wiggs, JK, TJD
Very interesting.

This is going to be cool!
Somehow, Kerr finds a way to go to the 3 guard lineup.
They are testing if JK can replace Wiggs in the line up. Same for Looney, though what I see is either they want to increase Paul’s value or evaluate JK and trade Wiggs if they are sure of JK’s capability.
Honest to God,
What does Klay have to do to be removed from the starting lineup?
ZERO rebounds against the Heat.
ZERO defense against the Heat.
HORRIBLE shot selection against the Heat.
+/- of **NEGATIVE 26** against the Heat.
Moving CP3 to the starting lineup could quite possibly destroy the effectiveness of the 2nd unit.
What the hell did Podz do to be demoted?
I hope TJD & Kuminga **FEAST** at the rim.
Interesting
Whoa, it’s really happening. Watching live.
Thank God. Commented this morning Podz and Looney are not contender starters
Sounds like a legit lineup. Two bouncy, high flying young guns and some vets that can shoot lights out.
Benching Podz for no reason is tight
