Hi. Are you familiar with the Mr. Dick character in David Copperfield? You resemble Mr Dick. You have been working on your life's project for 11 years but in the last three years you have been constantly distracted from your work by thoughts of your King Charles, Hassan Whiteside. You cannot stop tinkering with your rotation. You used 29 starting lineups this season past, on average a new one every third game as if you had just been handed this shit collective rather than having had the same shit every day for the past three years. The players don't know what to expect, they cannot get into a rhythm, their play becomes inconsistent, their morale suffers, their effort becomes inconsistent. It is a shit circle.
Spoelstra, this is what you are going to do or your head is going to resemble that of King Charles. You are going to begin 2019/20 with your five best (or least worst) players in your starting lineup and with a set rotation of next least worst players to come into games at predictable times. You will decide this by a date set in stone during training camp once you have a chance to see who is healthy and who has been training at Dunkin' Donuts over the summer and you are going to stick with it! You are not to tinker! This is a tinker-free zone! The moment the tinkering thought enters your brain you are to fly to this email! This will be your starting lineup unless you get advance written permission from Miss Betsey or ME:
PG Goran Dragic
SG Dion Waiters (in case of Dunkin' Donuts attack break glass insert Justise Winslow.)
SF Josh Richardson
PF Bam Adebayo
C Hassan Whiteside
Last out, first in: Winslow, Kelly Olynyk.
If D-Wait is D-Weight banish him to the end of the bench, trade him, or cut him. The rest of the rotation I leave, not without misgivings but with the thought that I have penned you in sufficiently with that ETCHED IN STONE starting lineup, to your discretion.
Your friend,
Benjamin Harris
