What this answer does not do
  • ·It does not estimate what a lineup that never played would have done.
  • ·A gap between two lineups is not the cause of that gap.
  • ·With few possessions it claims no performance: it shows the sample.

Who gives up (or gets) those minutes? Optional: if you do not say, the team's unallocated pool absorbs the difference.
