00:00 The Houston Rockets may present a fascinating challenge for the Toronto Raptors in the so-called
00:04 Jumbo lineup the lineup has been a hot topic of conversation with Raptors coach Nick nurse who said he went so far as to test
00:12 out a super jumbo lineup during today's practice I
00:15 finished a
00:18 Scrimmage today with neither Kyle or Fred out there, which which made us really big Pascal kind of handled the ball
00:25 Pascal and norm
00:27 We're out there. So it's a big big even bigger lineup. Just just again, I think I
00:33 just like them to
00:35 To be able to figure things out in a lot of different ways
00:39 Just in case nurse said he expects to see a lot of Marcus all in Sergio Baca playing together during the NBA's restart
00:45 And that's welcome news to a Baca who said he loves playing alongside Gasol and showing off his versatility
00:51 Yeah, Mark, you can play both from inside and outside
00:55 You know, you can walk and walk you can shoot I can shoot that's you know
01:00 It just depends every year to read who's guarding me and who's guarding him from there
01:04 You know
01:05 We try to figure out how to play now
01:07 The question for the Raptors is can the jumbo lineup withstand the kind of small ball the Rockets like to play
01:12 If you if you really can play against them big lineup, I'm sure you can play against any team that
01:18 A Baca is right if the Raptors can go big and still keep up with the Rockets. That's concerning news for the rest of the NBA
