There is no reason he doesn't get more minutes this year. TA at 1, Hill at 2, DJW at 3 is at least equal to Tate at 1, TA at 2, Hill at 3 and has way more upside, IMO. If they used it more, I think it could be very effective.
I would prefer that Tates minutes come as a backup to TA, or in end game type situations when ball handling is at a premium.
You've forgotten JCL in these lineups. Having Malcolm play the 2 for a little bit is fine, but having our best 3 pt shot out of two whole lineups just isnt the best strategy. DJW should average 10 mins a game, spelling Hill for 6 or 7 and then 3 at the 3/4 when we go small. In a perfect world you'd have a mins breakdown like: TA -30 | JCL -30 | MH - 33 | LB - 25 | DJW - 10 and the rest split amongst the bigs + Tate/TJL.
We saw a lot of DJW this game soley because Hill was in foul trouble very early. He proved himself worthy and therefore earned more time yesterday. Theres not reason to think hes gonna get more playing time than Tate normally, just because theres essentially a lock of Tate, TA, and JCL at the guard position.
I should say I agree with you. I like having Hill and DJW out there. I would suggest a lineup of TA, JCL, DJW, Hill, and Black. Good combo of athleticism and scoring ability and I think speed as well. You get a couple of crafty veterans and a few of the younger guys. The most important lineup we haven't found yet is our defensive set. Not saying my solution is the answer but I think it would make up for some of our deficiencies.
