    Thunder back to playing football on the basketball court and refs back to calling fouls on us for getting run over.

    We've gone 12 deep in the rotation yet CJ has still logged 30 mins on 4/18 shooting.

    This was my suggestion earlier.

    Here's an idea.
    Shorten your rotation.
    Starters: Nurkic, Collins, Jake, Hood and Dame. Gives you a lot of size and a couple guys who can stretch the defense.
    Then your main bench guys are Aminu and CJ then depending on matchups, or foul trouble you sprinkle in Curry and ET I guess, even Meyers may get a shot here and there. Dame and CJ together get abused on defense too many small guys the offense can always find a matchup to exploit. Aminu and Moe are too inconsistent on Offense they can't really get played together because the spacing is just bad. CJ's minutes should be down to about 25-28 minutes a game. He may even finish a lot of games, but you want to limit how much he and Dame are out there at the same time.

    You don't need to go 10-11 deep every game.

    At this point, I'd start one of them....but have many of their minutes overlap as well. Not hard to do.

    Curry forcing it a bit trying to show he should be playing. Ignoring the 'hot' shooters.

    First ET, then Nurk with an 18'er. Guess the Blazers really don't want to win this game.
