Mitch Johnson is playing a dangerous game with Spurs' playoff rotation

The NBA playoffs are just around the corner for the San Antonio Spurs, but coach Mitch Johnson is still tinkering with his rotation. Experimenting with different lineups at such a late stage in the regular season is unusual since this is the time most coaches settle on their playoff rotation.

Nevertheless, Johnson has a good reason for experimenting, with San Antonio being one of the deepest teams in the NBA. Recently, we've seen him experiment with playing small ball more often.

That is a questionable decision considering the Spurs have two seven-foot behemoths in Victor Wembanyama and Luke Kornet.
