    What’s going be the eventual closing lineup that puts the competition away for us based off the current roster?


    SF KPJ
    PF Tari
    C Smith
    SG Green
    PG Christopher



    If Tate has really improved his 3 , then he can the SF, and KPJ back at pg

    Pretty much the same, I'll just switch Green with JC

    PG - Jalen Green
    SG - KPJ
    SF - JC
    PF - Smith
    C - Tari

    Yeah that lineup seen to offer the most versatility on both side of the floor. But like I said if Tate can get that 3 pt shooting up to 35% then I’d insert him in the lineup

    I've been pushing the jabari as closing lineup center agenda. Eason or tate at the PF. that team can switch anything and play 5 out (assuming eason or tate become average shooters).

    this year I would go with the following closing lineup:

    jabari
    tate
    ego
    jalen
    KPJ

    if all works out well I think Eason and JC eventually replace tate and ego.
