Couldn't help but think the Celtics haven't had a team captain for many years and wonder if they should name one now. Wondering your thoughts on if the team should name a captain and if so, then who?

I think naming a captain could be too divisive. One could make a strong argument for any of these guys to be captain


The diplomatic choice would be tacko though

I would go for Smart if I had to, but tbh I think having multiple guys who can take up a leadership role is great.

I don't think they need to name one but, if they did, it's Smart.

Well, the team's last captain, Rajon Rondo, was a bit of a disaster, so maybe they shouldn't name one. I think a case could be made that anyone of the four could be that guy, therefore, maybe Stevens could be reluctant to name any of them.

Out of the four, I think Kemba, Smart and Brown are probably the most natural leaders. Kemba might not be here past this contract, which probably rules him out. So between Smart and Brown, I am not sure which would be better.

It either go with Smart or Brown. I don’t think teams do that any more.

I go with Brown, no doubt.  He has this extra level of intelligence about him.

Kemba is the guy everyone on the team goes to.  He’s the de facto captain already.
