NBA Playoffs 2023: The Philadelphia 76ers negative 5-man lineup

Image
Original Photo: SixersWire at Yahoo!entertainment The Philadelphia 76ers started game 6 of their Eastern Conference Semifinal series versus the Boston Celtics with a starting lineup of: This lineup started the game with a -10 plus/minus, after the Celtics matched up P.J. Tucker with Robert Williams. This strategy allowed Boston to have a big man playing against Joel Embiid and another big man on the boards, leaving Tucker shooting from the 3-point line and hoping that he won't be effective. Doc Rivers wants Tucker next to his best four scorers, to be able to protect them and have a defensive anchor next to Embiid. But this lineup, in general, doesn't seem to be effective since it shoots way worse than the opposite lineups.  Using Stathead, we see that during the 2023 NBA Playoffs there are 6 different 5-man lineups that played 100 or more minutes together.

Next season the NBA would widen the lane from 12 to 16 feet, trying to limit his all-time high usage.  🏀 The two players on the list that led their team to a championship are  George Mikan  (3,5 WS - 0.391 WS48) in 1954 and Michael Jordan in 1991 (4,8 WS...
