One of the most common complaints against Scott Brooks is his tendency to play his stars together, rather than stagger their minutes to ensure at least one star is on the floor at all times. It happened a lot in Oklahoma City with Russell Westbrook and Kevin Durant, and it kept happening last season with John Wall and Bradley Beal.
Last summer, it looked like Scott Brooks was ready to make a change. On a podcast with Chris Mannix of Yahoo Sports, he indicated he was going to try to stagger Wall and Beal more to take advantage of Beal’s improved playmaking abilities.
