This may surprise those that have been vocal opponents of Casey's small
ball lineup, but these numbers show that it has been effective:

In the 94 minutes the Wolves have played with KG at C and Wally at PF,
Hassell at SF and Jaric at either SG or PG, the Wolves are +50.

Glad to see Casey has tested out what I purposed last season, that KG
can be very effective at C with the right matchups.

Huh? This year's "small ball" lineup isn't any different than what
Flip put out there for years, except that Jaric's size makes it easier
to cover for Wally's poor defense and poor rebounding, even against
the other team's "small ball" lineup.

When Casey starts that lineup then you'll have some news.
