I'd like to see what a Lowry, DeRozan, Powell, Kilometers, Ibaka lineup can do
Starting Lowry-DD-Norm-Ibaka-JV, running primary bench units of Wright-DD-Miles-Siakam-Poeltl and Wright-Lowry-Miles-Siakam-JV, with small ball lineups to close each half (Wright-DD-Powell-Miles-Ibaka or Wright-DD-Powell-Ibaka-Poeltl at the end of the 1st half; your lineup at the end of the game, or possibly close with the starters), should set us up for success throughout the game. Ibaka would get a few minutes with those bench units as a transition from/to the starters.

When you try to emulate the Warriors, without any shooters.
Raptors season-high in 3pt attempts last year was 35. They topped it in each of their first 2 preseason gms (43, 36). Problem: they shot 22%

I mean seriously, Ibaka's shot selection so far makes 2014-15 Derozan's look good.

Its a new system clearly it takes time to adjust. I think they want ibaka to space the floor but yeah I think he should be taking more shots inside. he is actually really effective mid range. Unfortunately this is where derozan operates too. Turning everyone into a play maker will open up these shots. overall I have liked the look of the offence just not the production. CJ miles will get better for sure. Norm will be back in the rotation... and OG will be playing and learning soon. I think these two things are key

Most of the ball movement has looked really good. Not from Ibaka though.

But if it holds up (it won't), it would be very concerning.

I think it’s fine and good that the Raptors plan on chucking a bunch of threes, but they really don’t have the personnel for it.
Outside of Lowry, Miles and I guess Ibaka, who is really considered that big of a threat from deep?
We’re essentially counting on a pile of guys that have no history of being good shooters to suddenly shoot at a 35% clip.
Masai needs to find shooters, otherwise we’re just chucking bricks and giving up fast breaks.Sunny ways my friends, sunny ways
Because its 2015
