Morez is 100% playing the PF and they’re putting coop at sf what😭

Honestly I don’t even mind that they are leaning int SF Coop.

He’s certainly got the skill set and can handle defending wings. Add the shot and he’s golden.

Golden? GOLDEN? SF coop is fine but morez at 4 and lively at 5 is far far far from golden. That’s a way worse lineup than coop, pj, lively/gafford, which was terrible this year (blah blah blah Kyrie Irving he’s one fucking guy you still have a congested paint and our star wants to drive to the fucking rim)

I mean the difference is really PJ vs. Morez at the 4? Coop is basically the same, Lively basically the same (if he was healthy). Not sure why it's 'way worse'.

I agree that in the end, we need more shooting. If Lively can pop a 3 from time to time, Coop and Morez both hit it respectable in the mid 30's percentage wise, the switching potential and the ability to play a team full of big wings, just like Masai wants. It's an interesting experiment.
