Nice to see some video of them practicing. Post as many of these as you like. I can’t make it to any of the open practices, so these are great.
Shannon Brown looks good. We should be alright at the 2 for sure. I think we’ll be good in every position except 2nd unit PG (potentially) and maybe PF- although I still believe in Warrick, if he plays that position still.
Ultimately, I’d like to see Chilly play some 2 & 3, Warrick play some 3 & 4, and Fry play some 4 & 5. I think we can really confuse some teams if we can pull that off. If you think about it, we could play these arrangments:
Tall ball:
Gortat/Lopez, Frye, Warrick, Hill/Chilly, and any PG.
Small ball:
Frye, Hill, Dudz, Brown/Dudz, Nash/Price
Offensive power:
Gortat, Frye, Warrick, Hill, Nash
Defensive power:
Gortat / (maybe lopez?), Morris, Hill, Dudz, Price
Dunkalicious:
Gortat, Warrick, Chilly, Brown, Price
3-pt barrage:
Frye, Morris, Dudz/Hill, Brown, Nash
The last two would be fun as “way-ahead garbage time”. Or, the very last as a desperate way to get back into a game.
Anyway, potentially lots of options/arrangments, lots of depth/talent, and hopefully a lot of fun.

* corrections:
small ball should not have Dudz twice… only under the SF position.
offensive power should have Brown instead of Hill

Wow, Telfair can’t run a fast break. Every time he’s leading, it becomes a half court set.
