Just looking at the length of the Pels, they really could create some interesting matchup

The length and athleticism of Herb, Trey, BI, Naji, and now Daniels we could definitely throw out some interesting lineups. I’m not sure “small ball” lineup would be the right term. It seems like every guy mentioned above has 7’ wingspan and the agility and strength to guard front and backcourt players.

The league has definitely changed and the Pels are clearly embracing that and setting themselves up nicely.

Could have an all wing sized lineup of Daniels, BI, Herb, Trey, and Zion

With our shortest guy being 6’7” and possibly being the more physically dominant player in the league not named Giannis.

And do you think they would be a defensive liability? Offensively we know BI or Zion could easily be the primary ball handlers the question would be if Herb and Daniels could shoot well enough for adequate spacing.

It's not ideal, but Zion has proven in the past that he can score at efficient levels even with shite spacing

Herb’s ability to move w/o the ball is an underrated skill IMO. He is an improving shooter but he is excellent with back cuts and finding openings which forces the defense to be “aware” of him and not just leave him alone.

Offensively, we will be fine even without elite spacing IF and A HUGE IF... We defend the 3pt line that we are capable of.
