Question about Rotation F - A - W - W - B

by tylercomp on Jan 13, 2012 4:14 PM PST

I have tried to watch every game but I can't seem to recall how often Felton, Aldrige, Wallace, Wesly and Batum play together. Anyone know of a website where I could find this analysis, I feel like there may be one.

This lineup may get abused in the post, but we get abused in the post anyway, and maybe the length and activity would help strip the ball if the center doesn't punish us immediately. Blazers could get Batum more run and we would be real quick to counter the other teams big man advantage (it would kill a center like Bynum to try and keep up with our running game)

Additional Notes:

I would personally like to see less of our center rotated in which might open the door for E-Will/Babbitt (mostly E-Will) to get some additional run.

it hasn't happened this season with the exception of

the orlando game and I think it was crawford more than felton. I like both those lineups though and expect to see them more

82games.com

is the website you are looking for. They record all 5-man units used by each team, and how many minutes each unit has played together.

Felton-Aldridge-Wallace-Matthews-Batum have played 17 minutes together this season, and while they look like a great defensive lineup they don’t seem that good on offense. But of course, small sample size, blah blah blah.

Oops

I have no idea how to post a link on here. You may have to cut ‘n’ paste.

Thanks

I see that site mentioned around here from time to time, it is exactly what I was looking for

Aren't they going to change their name for this season?

The lineup I most want to see is Felton-Batum-Wallace-Aldridge-Camby

Also, having just checked the link above, it looks like one of the best line-ups.

I think we just witnessed your answer tonight.

Without Camby to open and close, the Blazers go nowhere. Even a 499 year old Timmeh can kill the Blazers without Marcus.

that's because we played like a bunch of pansies

not because we can’t hold our own…imo anyway

A truly in depth analysis

Pansies are third round picks for sure

anything to get Batum more court time

I’m not sure why Nate’s holding him back…

Now that Camby is out, Batum will have to take advantage of this opportunity.

That should be F-M-B-W-A

Felton, Batum, Wallace, Aldridge, Camby

This is my preferred line-up. I want to see Batum and Wallace on the floor together a lot more. They read each other well and get the ball to each other in places they can score. Combined with Aldridge and Camby, this is also one of their best defensive units.
