I have been happy with way the rotations have looked in the two games since the trade. I think it really highlights the fact that maybe Brown wasn't a dummy, but was just doing the best he could with a flawed roster - the 2 starters for Butler trade and Markelle situation really hamstrung what was already a thin squad.
The biggest things I see are the McConnell situation - he now is back in a 12-15 minute role, which suits him best. He can be annoying balls-to-the-wall defense guy 100% of the time in limited minutes. Also you now do not have to have him and Ben (two non-shooters) share the floor at all, which I think was the most problematic rotation issue we had. The second thing is that we can stagger the starters effectively so that we always have a couple scoring threats on the floor and that should eliminate the long scoreless droughts that have plagued this team for years.
