Dean the Dream Wade

[adam81king]

excited to see the return of the cream team lineup

 

[Sebastian]

Dean, we need you.

Why is he not starting? Okoro is not a SF and the season is halfway over. The DG, Mitchell, Wade, Mobley, and JA starting unit needs minutes. Stop fucking around. He did this same shit with LeVert coming off the bench instead of starting at SF last season.

 

[Futuredome]

We know why

 

[Cavatt]

He's not even off a min restriction yet

That group has not played a single second together yet. And I seriously doubt you’ll see that group together this year.

RIP Dean Wade

That would be so pathetic. Last season, the intended starting lineup of DG, LeVert, Lauri, Mobley, and JA only played minutes in the final play-in game. LeVert was available for many games/minutes to get that lineup in sync, but JB kept bringing him off the bench. Are we really going to see this again?

I don't have any problem continuing to bring Wade off the bench. Okoro has meshed very well with the starting unit. And we need a stronger bench. He can get his 20-25 minutes per game off the bench. A bench bunch of Rubio, LeVert, Wade, and Love (theoretically, if he ever pulls his head out of his ass) could be a very effective group.

Strong disagree we looked far better this season with Wade starting, we’re barely .500 since he got injured. Most of our best 5 man units include Wade at the 3, and as Comeback kid just mentioned we havnt even seen a Garland/Mitchell/Wade/Mobley/Allen lineup.

He’s literally our only wing bringing him off the bench would self destructive

 

[Comeback kid]

Right now we need him much more to be the backup 4 or 5 than we need him to be the starting 3. Unless he tries to do both. Which I wouldn’t recommend.

This is correct, I think. But get ready for LittaZ to tell you how wrong you are, though.

This is a problem for us. I think we would be best with Wade as the starting 3, but with Kevin hurt or ineffective, we literally have no playable bigs to back up Mobley and Allen other than Wade. Your bench can’t be Okoro, Stevens, Rubio, LeVert. For all the talk a trading for a wing, a playable back up big might be more affordable and almost as needed.

I never understand why people get caught up on who starting the first 6 to 8 minutes of the game , like that going to determine who wins the game…..I love Wade as the 6 man off the bench, and the way Okoro is playing I have no problem with that……Not to mention Love is cook, even if he finds his 3 point stroke , that won’t fix his liability on defense,
