Why Corbin should NOT change the starting lineup.

Punch Bowl Re-Filler
A different perspective came to me as a I was straining, um I mean thinking, in the bathr..., I mean office.

Don't know where to find this statistic, but the Jazz could be the only team, or at least one of the very few in NBA history, to completely turn over their starting five in one season.

And most of the starters are likely found on the 2nd unit right now: Favors, Kanter, Hayward (or Burks), maybe even DeMarre. This unit needs to remain intact and develop chemistry together. I'd even have Mo play with the backups when he returns. Pair him with Burks, who can do most of the ballhandling so Mo doesn't have to use his finger as much.


Ideally (and I know this has a 0.0% chacne of happening), the current starters should play the 1st and 3rd, with the subs getting all the minutes in the 2nd and 4th.
 
Move the bench into the starting lineup and move the starters to the bench/doghouse (whichever applies). Problem solved.

In b 4 "starts only blown out because they play against starters!"
