In my opinion Casey worried too much about offense last season, hence kept Fields off the floor. He should have worried more about defense. If Fields hadn't been suffering from back spasms (or whatever it was) he would have played more than Salmons in the first round and the Raps would have made it to the second round. I believe that.

He may be the best defender on the team, and his constant movement, and intelligent passing means the other team needs to guard him. He also sets smart screens.

I give you that but that is not enough at this level of competition. As far as lock down defender I don't know where this myth is coming from ...@Boymusic66

Frankly it would be hard not to find 10-12 good minutes for Fields. And I think I've been overshooting it with 15-20 minutes. If Williams gets any meaningful minutes, best case scenario I can see for our backup SF is about 10 MPG (DD and Ross will spend a decent amount of time there with guys like GV and Williams eating up time at the 2).

If Fields plays over Bruno I could see our rotation looking like this:
PG: Lowry (30)/Vasquez (18)
SG: DeRozan (25)/Lou (20)/Vasquez (3)
SF: Ross (28)/DeRozan (10)/Fields (10)
PF: Amir (23)/2Pat (25)
C: Valanciunas (30)/Nogueira (15)/Amir (3)
DeRozan: 35mpg
Lowry: 30mpg
Valanciunas: 30mpg
Ross: 28mpg
Amir: 26mpg
2Pat: 25mpg
Vasquez: 21mpg
Lou: 20mpg
Nogueira: 15mpg
Fields: 10mpg
