So in starting this post there is clearly the 3 trillion pound gorilla in the room and that is the health and effectiveness of KG. However assuming KG plays but has his minutes somewhat limited (25-30 a night), what do we think the rotation will look like in the playoffs?
At this point I think its pretty safe to assume that Big Baby is gonna be the 3rd big. He has proven to be an adequate defender, as well as a capable mid-range shooter. I would imagine that Powe will also get some minutes as the 4th big. Mikey Moore should be used strictly in must foul times only.
As far as the PG situation I think Marbury & Eddie have a nice thing going. The two of them combined with Ray Allen is really a nice combination that works quite well. I think Tony Allen could see some minutes defensively against Lebron or Iguadola if we see Philly. However in the playoffs Ray & Paul will be playing 42 minutes plus (I would imagine) thus limiting the need for Tony to be on the court.
While clearly some of this depends on match ups and how healthy/well guys are playing, I think Doc has done a much much much better job this year of working his rotations. I am interested to see how he plays it once the playoffs begin.
