I'm thinking in 3 years this lineup would be so damn good defensively. Also it gives us shooting on the wings and oozes athleticism. That frontcourt would be nasty. Who could score on us in the paint?

Trey Burke
Gordon Hayward
Aaron Gordon
Derrick Favors
Rudy Gobert

Worst shooting and offensive team in the league. Aaron Gordon is a PF until he figured out his shot. I don't even think he has the lateral quickness to play SF either. He is PF but not even full time. The guy is overrated.

I prefer
Trey
Burks
Parker
Kanter
Favors

Don't trade anyone away. Trade away draft picks to get Parker.

It's a pity nobody really pays any attention to you then.






.... actually it's not. It's really AWESOME.
 
Hasn't this season taught us anything? Based on the lack of offensive firepower with this lineup, Hayward once again would be asked to be the main scoring option...FAIL.
 
Did you guys not read the 3 years part? If you don't think any of those guys offense will be vastly improved than of course that lineup will be horrible offensively.

But I have more faith in our young guys. And Aaron Gordon has the skills to improve as well. He's only 18.
 
Rather have Kanter in the starting 5 than Gobert, but I like Gordon at the 3. As is, that front court has no offense, no one to stretch the floor, or even shoot beyond 10 feet. That lane would be crowded and that starting unit would struggle to score.

We did take the 3 year part into consideration. But considering how slowly Favors have come offensively 3-4 years ago, forgive me for not having such high expectations out of Aaron or Gobert.
 
A. Gordon necessitates Kanter being out there and able to draw a big to the perimeter when needed.

Burke
Hayward
Gordon
Favors
Kanter

I would really like a future (when Lavine develops) lineup of:

Lavine - freak athlete, dead eye shooter, elite length for position.
Hayward - great lsize for position. Good defense. Slasher/driver/athletic playmaker. Ball handler. Rebounder.
Gordon - Great size, length, D, instincts, ball handling, rebounding, playmaking, finishing, shot blocker. Etc.
Favors - great D, size for PF, athletic, shot blocker. Rubs well for big. Rebounder. Improving passing.
Kanter - good size. Born to rebound. Easy putbacks. Can draw big to perimeter. Improving D. Improving passing. Runs well for big man.

^ that lineup, when developed (gamble on Lavine), would have good to elite size at every oosition. Insane athleticism, 3pt shooting, slashing w/o the ball, well above average rebounding at every position, uptempo runners who could make opponents pay dearly in our altitude, above average ball handling for positions 1-3, a decent amount of passing, and a good balance of defense and offense.

But it would require us trading up to snag Lavine, since he's out of our range now. Would trade #23, #35, rights to Tomic, GSW's second rounder next year, and possibly more depending on how his workouts go to get is into late lottery, or just out of it, to grab him.

I like that line up much better.
