I would start O'Quinn, melo, Rolo, Calderón and affalo

my 3 Ir players would be Lou, Lance and Thanasis....

I would basically play melo 32 minutes a game and every other player basically split the minutes evenly. I think Cleananthony, Derrick Williams, Seraphin, Kristaps? Galloway, Vujacic, Affalo, Grant? I think both groups will have great competition and since the guys are all team players I think that will boost chemistry. They gonnabe gellin!

Calderon, Afflalo, Melo, KP and RoLo makes the most sense. love the rim protection there, the length of KP plus the smarts of RoLo will make it hard for all the PGs and wings who burn our perimeter "defenders".

also like the potential for an up-tempo second unit led by Grant and Derrick.

you know that's a pretty nice idea. might as well see if the latvian can develop some chemistry with anthony within a structured offense. hell, i'd even settle for the two of them working outside the offense, like in a the pierce,garnett mold.

i totally overlooked the defensive length factor of lopez and porzingis together.

thanks for sharing.

Will Melo agree to play the 3? Doesn't he want to play PF?

Knicks and Melo both want him at the 3. hence all of the PFs signed in the offseason.
