The lineup Dixon goes to down the stretch of games, say in the last 5 minutes or so, is Robinson, Jones, Artis, Jeter and Young.
He also normally plays Mike Young at C maybe 10 MPG, so he can get Jeter 20 MPG or so at PF.
Against GT, this didn't happen much, with Maia (32 minutes) and ANO (5) playing all by 2 minutes at the position.
This was because Young managed to get into foul trouble, but also because you wanted Maia out there as much as possible to deal with the brutes GT brings under the basket.
The thing is, ND doesn't have anywhere's near the size that GT has. The biggest player in their regular rotation is at 240 and it goes down in size from there. They are in fact smaller than us.
So, with that we should be able to go back to playing the smaller lineup more with Young at C and Jeter at PF.
