Thomas, Bradley, Turner, Crowder, and Johnson

Thomas, Bradley, Turner, Crowder, and Johnson......Scalabrine said he thought this was our best lineup without Smart.

I think he may be right.

[Denis998]

essentially our best small ball group. Amir holds it down at the 5

Brad is going to have a tough decision whenever Smart gets back. He'll come off of the bench initially, but once he's back in the swing of things, who goes to the bench? It seems IT and Bradley have an excellent chemistry out there, and the unit as a whole has been playing pretty well. However, both of them have been excellent coming off of the bench, as well, and you also have the worries about size in the backcourt, too. I'm guessing that Bradley ends up going to the bench to make him the number one option off of the bench, and he'll sub in for Smart around six minutes into the game.

All will not be on our next championship roster IMO.

They need a scorer off the bench. AB most likely imo, though I think IT is better suited as you can hide his defensive shortcomings better. Whoever ends up as the 6th man will still get his minutes.

[Future Celtics Owner]

I hope we trade IT and Bradley while they are killing it....give the pg duties to Smart, both defensively and offensively.

I love the logjam at guard. IT + AB are doing well overall. All 3 are competitors, and with the way AB responded to being benched, I think the competition is only going to make them better. Hoping that is what Smart needs to get his ass in gear offensively. May be the best thing for him... or may tip us off to his upside before other observers/potential trade partners.

Yea they've been playing well outplayed the Spurs starting unit it felt like most of the night

It seems like the pattern going forward without Smart.
I wish Bradley would never pass. He is the worst passer I have ever seen.

And why again? both are still young, still has some upside. im glad you arent the Celtics owner because every move you've been wanting to make is really horrible.
