I get that there are certain matchups you want whites defense and length in there, but out of time outs, and for large chunks of the 4th, I would much rather see pritchard in there.

He is just so much more explosive and opens up the court more for Tatum and brown. Plus ,he has a good pick n roll with AL going . He really is a huge help for the offense to have a 3rd ball handler who can actually shoot. Plus his defense is underrated,  he is a competitor.

Love the lineup of

Pp
Smart or brown
Brown or Tatum
Tatum or grant
Al or Rob

Please get him more mins so he can get in a groove...

My first preference for a closing lineup is the starters:  Timelord, Horford, Tatum, Brown, Smart

That's our best, most balanced lineup.

Depending on matchups and needs, I'm fine with Grant, White or Pritchard in there.  I probably trust White the most, despite his shooting issues.
