Duvalier Johnson

It's worked.

So tonight was kind of interesting because they have Robert Williams.

And I think to the point of some people's consternation on this topic,

It has felt at times where it's like, okay, this is the Thunder.

This is the team you go small against.

Wait, now Big Val is in there versus Portland.

You probably could have played Big Val, but he decides to go small.

So that can be a little jarring, but we have to acknowledge that these smaller minutes have worked lately and that directly juxtaposed with those Big Val minutes where they were hemorrhaging points of late.

Also important to note, like you guys mentioned, it was Jamal Murray to start the year, then it became Cam Johnson as the stagger.

Now, a lot of the data that reflected that that was working was Cam and Val on the floor at the same time.

It stops working so well, Val comes off the floor, and he goes back to Jamal.

So I think that that's just something really interesting, something to keep an eye on.

Is Jamal just the stagger again now?

Is that what it'll be like in the postseason?

Dev, there were some other changes as well.

I mean, these are the guys that you would expect to play in most playoff series, which means a handful of guys aren't going to play.

And I know you remarked on the watch along.

That means no Julian Strother.

Yeah, we might see him still, I think.

And then another notable decision, Eric, is, look, as they all get healthy, I don't think anyone expected Zeke to be in the playoff rotation.
