Not playing Milicic and Hill is a travesty being that we are so small to begin with. I would like to see a second unit lineup of Gallo at the point and Douglas in the back court with him, along with Chandler, Hill and Milicic in the front court. That should be the second quarter lineup and late third early fourth quarter lineup.
That would give the opportunity for Gallo to create for others, Douglas will have more room to work with (not having Hughes/Harrington) in that unit. Hill and Milicic will benefit because we can slow the game down for them and feed them the ball inside. Chandler can benefit by the screens that Hill and Darko can provide and come off to shot the mid-range buckets.
With that second unit the young guys can become familiar with one another and even if they make mistakes it will be better in long run. I don't mind playing the veterans if we are winning but there has to be away to get younger players more minutes and get them to play with each other.
