re: BOOT UP

It all depends on the match up as to how much any new "bigs" will play. If they are needed because of defense/defensive rebounding, they will get more time.

My guess is that unless Cooper, Thomas, or any other new big positively surprises, they won't average 40 minutes combined for any two of them.

Wade is experimenting with more motion and perhaps dribble drive to spread the floor and cause defensive imbalances. The hope would be for free throws on drives, easy buckets near the hoop and open threes. These are the most efficient ways to score in a ppp analysis.

We will probably see a combination of 4 out/1 in and 5 out sets to get maximum spacing. The 5 out sets would make it harder for a non skilled big to get playing time.

Watford is reportedly skilled with the ball by the way.
