    5 is the full starting lineup. 0 is a lineup of all bench guys.

    The Wolves had all 5 starters on the floor over 45% of the time last season. Blazers had all the starters on 8th most often of all NBA teams, and almost never had zero starters on the floor. However, it appears that they went with 1 starter and 4 bench guys a lot more often than most teams did.

    Thanks,

    Thats probably due to CJ playing alot of minutes with the second unit.

    The previous season to your chart I think Vonleh would have played the fewest starter minutes in the league...

    I like Philly's approach. Always have at least 2 starters on the floor. It appears that Houston & GSW also try to follow that approach - but I'd assume their numbers are skewed a bit by having more large victory margins.

    Looks as if GS tried to keep at least two starters out there as much as possible.

    Looks like Stotts and Lue have the same rotation philosophy...

    This is the year we start to figure out if Lue can coach at all or if it was all LBJ

    Cause not many people think he was the real coach of the team.

    Like @TorturedBlazerFan said, we should find out this year though. ;)
