Starting to get excited about our defensive lineup w/ close leads

[HawkItus]

Imagine 98-94 Hawks, 1:20 left, opposing teams timeout:

 

Buds runs out......

 

The Everlasting Baze

Thabo

JYD

SAP

Horf

 

Man we can switch on almost anything on the outside or play man up.  Good squad against screens.  Great Double team group.  Full court pressure will be insane.

Who is exactly leading in this situation?

We'd HAVE to play great defense with that lineup since there's no one that can create their own offense.

Millsap can create his own shot.

I like our prospects defesively

[Peoriabird]

When we add Taveres in a year, It will really be lock down time!

Good defense. Mediocre offense...and the rebounding on this team is not that good. I would hope if they run that squad they would not be looking to get a ton off the glass.

The offense will be good also. We have alot of capable shooting depth and even without horford offense wasnt a problem with Antić in his place. We needed a big to set screens.

Bud isnt leaving his best offensive players on the bench during crunch time. That will be asinine.

Not really.  Maybe in the post but since Al has no post game you can have your best post defender on Sap who is also undersized.

Seriously? Horford back at center at 6-9 1/2 and in a place he doesn't want to be in? Your PF is 6-8 ? May be quick but we would have the size of University of Alabama at Birmingham. Speed and "switching" wouldn't matter against a team with size - they would just pound it inside until we sagged back to protect the paint and then shoot threes. That lineup would be a nightmare against the better teams.
