They can't be this stupid.

I assume there will be a lot of smallball lineups where he's at the 4 but still playing relatively the same game as his usual 3 self.

instead of calling all the negative posts on the first page, I just found the 1 that seemed to use a little bit of critical thought. Congratulations breh

PG is roughly playing 45 percent of his minutes with 2 bigs on the floor.
The percentage is overblown with both Hill and Miles missing three games. When everyone is healthy - that's the main lineup they play -

C.J. Miles, is shouldering the power forward duties. George is still starting at SF
It's not so much that as it is PG is typically guarding the best wing player - which again carries over to when they play opposing small ball lineups - with a wing at the 4. PG is still playing like a PF though: crashing the glass, playing in the low post, sharing duties with Mahinmi on PNR duties.
