We were pretty solid defensively two years ago with 7', 6'10, and 6'9. Nelson isn't Miller, but the possibility of a big lineup occasionally is intriguing. Especially against teams with a big front line. Help defense and double teams have the ability to influence strong post play. Question is, can we stay in front of guards when we switch the high ball screen, but we do gain rim protection. Will be fun to have the versatility to go big or small.

Yep. Miller is more like Durant and may actually develop to be the next KD in the NBA. You gotta have a special athlete to play big at 3 and not get exploited on defense.
I could see Oats doing it against particular matchups where the opponent's 3 is not much of an offensive threat.

Im still curious about Naas Cunningham. The more highlight tape I watch, the more I think he could be a really impactful player immediately. He isn't a great defender, but looks really skilled and coordinated for 6'7, good hands too.
