In the spirit of last year’s Rockets, Any chance we run a small ball starting 5 any time soon? (raekwon231)
Yanir Rubinstein: Isn’t the Beal-Russ-Mathews-Bertans-Wagner small?
Albert: Noted. They’re already playing a three-guard lineup in many rotations. That said, it wouldn’t shock me to see a Beal-Westbrook-Mathews-Bertans-Hachimura lineup for longer stretches since I’d think that Hachimura would be the center in such a lineup.
Why do we need to go through this [mediocrity-as-goal style of play] year after year?
