Just a hunch, go with the vets.

My hunch is stick to your dayjob, and leave the coaching to CBS and his staff.

How did it work out starting two rookies?


1 out of 2


Same % as not starting both in the playoffs.

I'll say one thing, Monroe should get 0 minutes in Game 7.  Play Baynes, play Horford, no Monroe.

Better than your suggestion would work and the consensus does not agree with you.

Out rebounded by 11. No rebounds, no rings.

Consensus? LOL

Bingo.

There is a reason Monroe keeps getting traded.

Same % as not starting both in the playoffs.

The Celtics were behind until Baynes came in, and then the Celtics went on a 15-0 run.

The problem isn't with playing Baynes. The problem is starting Baynes and Horford together against the Bucks.

If Brown is out the first game, I actually might be in favor of starting Morris along with Baynes. A lineup of Rozier, Tatum, Morris, Al, and Baynes would actually matchup very well defensively with Simmons, Reddick, Covington, Saric, and Embiid, which would allow Al or Morris to guard Simmons and make things difficult for him.

It'd also help replace Brown's scoring and hopefully get Morris going a bit more this series.
