    The point is "traditional positions" isn't the way to look at Brad's lineup, because candidly, who cares? Maybe outside of very high-level grouping, but it's about what skills actually mesh together in a 5-man lineup. In lineups of Wagler, Davis, Andrej, Mirk and Tomi last year was Jake Davis...
