It is a high standard, but he does meet. However, in the series against the Celtics, management recommended roster adjustments, especially mentioning Robinson. The suggestion is said to be opposed. Reports about lineup adjustments began to appear when the team fell 0-2 in the Eastern Conference Finals, and rumors were rumored to be Hart This is the reason for this change. But the source said the team hopes Thibodeau can break his habit of not changing the starting lineup in the playoffs unless he is at a disadvantage in the series. This change did not happen until the team was in trouble. "
