Favorite lineup within this roster?

#1
I want to be optimistic. :)

GP said 'patience'. That means the team will not change a coach or players soon. And Wells and Rahim are on IL.

At this situation, what is your favorite lineup?

Come on. Don't answer with 'Nope. they're all bad.' :)

My favorite lineup is below.

PG : Bibby 30 min / Price + 10 min / Hart on bench.
SG : Martin 40 min (Cheers! Young Man!)
SF : Peja 20-30 min / Cisco + 20 min ( SG and SF)
PF : KT 30 min / Miller 30 min
C : Skinner + 25 min / Sampson + 5 min (not garbage time)

OK. Here's the reason.

We're tumbling now. How about giving a chance to young guys for stepping up?

Nowadays I like Price. Even though he's not so good with setting the offense, he is stable as a PG, works hard defensively, and is good at OFFENSE. I like he is playing. The leading problem when he's on the court can be solved, hopefully, by Cisco.

(Price + Cisco = minor version of Bobby Jackson + Doug Christie ? :D )

At frontcourt. I want to see Skinner getting more playing time and to see Miller playing as PF.

KT / Miller
Miller / Skinner
Corliss / Skinner

In short, GIVE MORE PLAYING TIME TO PRICE AND SKINNER!

How do you think about this?

C Sampson

PF Miller

SF Peja

SG Wells

PG Bibby

This is the best starting lineup we can make up now...We need a center wich we have misseed since Vlade left, Miller is PF..His best year was on this spot...That tells EVERYTHING..He cant play the defense and rebound for a center..Sampson is avaraging 2 rebounds in 3,6 minutes pr game!Without some defense we cant win , cause our offense isnt like that we had before, but i believe this lineup would turn things around...And Skinner could come in little more at the center spot too...

C Miller
PF Abdur-Rahim
SF Stojakovic
SG Wells
PG Bibby

These guys are starters for a reason. I may quibble sometimes with substitution minutes, but if the Kings aren't going to win with these guys they're not going to win period.

Agree. However, get Skinner off the bench earlier and make Price the primary backup to Mike.

Starting 5

C Miller 36-38 min
PF Skinner 26-30 min
SF Peja 30-34 min
SG Bonzi 36-40 min
PG Bibby 38-41 min

Bench

SF/PF/C SAR 22-28 min
SG Martin 18-25 min
PG Price 6-12 min

I would like to see Skinner in the SL for his defensive presence and it also opens up more shots for the Mike, Brad, and Peja. Unfortunately, it leaves no room for Kenny as SAR would probably take all of his minutes. I also really want to see what Sampson can do with consistent minutes.

this would be my favorite lineup had we ever seen it:

miller
skinner
rahim
wells
bibby

lotsa offense still, as well as a little defense and hustle to go with it.
 
#13
C-Miller
PF-Skinner
SF-SAR
SG-Martin
PG-Bibby

Bench Peja, Thomas (until we ride this heartless guy out of town), Wells (when he is back)
 
#15
How is it that all the fans see that we need Skinner in the game more and one of the best coaches supposedly in the NBA can't seem to understand that?
 
#20
C) Skinner 32 min
PF) Miller 32 min / SAR 25-30 min (switching between PF and C when Skinner or Miller is out)
SF) Wells 32-35min / Corliss 13-16 min
SG) Martin 35-38 min / Garcia 10-13 min
PG) Bibby 35 min / Price 13 min

better defensively, better hustle, better bench

now lets just trade peja
