DQ is the big question. Is he a of or center? If he's primarily a power forward which I believe. My guess the starters will be:

Queen
Z
Missi
Poole
Fears

I expect TM3 or Herb to be the sixth man off the bench. At the end of last season Z played the point small forward with TM as the shooting guard

Poole will be used like year 1 CJ. Start at PG but will slide to SG as well. The battle will be Jose vs Fears. That's where Willie has historically struggled distributing the minutes.

If Willie can't manage it, they will need to move Jose during the season to free up minutes for Fears.

Trey is starting. 100% lock to start. Its not even up for discussion.

Pool
Herb
Trey
Zion
Missi

Willie hates rookies who can't play defense. Fears and Queen won't start, but they will get plenty playing time because Dumars will tell him to play them.

Poole
Herb
Trey
Zion
Missi

If we add a center then Missi to the bench. When Murray comes back its Herb to the bench. If Fears is legit then Murray might not play another game for us.

Dumars traded for Poole because he likes Poole and wants him on the team. All the blog boys can opine as to ulterior motives, but I don't think this FO thinks like that.

Will flirt with the 17/18 Warriors as most dangerous team ever from 3.

Everyone in the first 3 rows would need to wear hard hats when the shots start flying from this lineup

The lineup is Poole Herb Trey Zion Missi.

The Poole trade makes me feel like they don’t plan on Dejounte being back this year.

I just hope Fears and Queen get playing time next year. No way Dumars just sold our future to let Willie glue the rooks to the bench

Agreed. I bet they get solid minutes. Especially with Jose Alavarado's PED suspension.

Zion is not a PF anymore. He's a wing. We have to hope that Murphy can bulk up enough to bang a little bit. You have the right people, just the wrong positions. Its..

Poole, Zion, Jones, Murphy, Missi

This is barring any further moves, which there should be a few. Queen is a PF, which he should hopefully claim quickly. That would slide Murphy back to his natural SF spot. Jones should be coming off the bench as our primary sub. Zion (if he's staying) needs to start shooting 3s. At least 4 per game. Hopefully we get a good Center prospect tonight, lots of solid prospects still to pick from..

dunno, but it'll be interesting when Murray comes back, who goes to the bench.... do we send Poole to the bench and roll with Murray and Herb, or do we slide Poole to SG and send Herb to the bench to become our 6th man....

PG Murray/Fears/Alvarado
SG Jones/Poole/Boston/Hawkins
SF Murphy/Bey/Brown
PF Zion/Matkovic
C Missi/Queen

+ pick 40

Without murray:
poole, alvarado, payton, reeves
jones, fears, hawkins, boston
murphy, bey
zion, matkovic
missi, queen

With murray:
murray, alvarado, payton, reeves
jones, poole, fears, hawkins, boston
murphy, bey
zion, matkovic
missi, queen

I expect us to trade hawkins and jose for either picks or another sf or big.
