I start Smart, Brown, Tatum, G.Williams and Theis. I think that’s a tough starting line up and I like G. Williams spreading the floor and being a load on the defensive end. You can switch everything with this line up.

I can't imagine it won't be: Teague, Smart, Jaylen, Jayson, and Theis. I think Thompson could have very likely taken Theis' spot, but with his current limitations, I think they will bring him along slowly.

I prefer to pretend no one has any injuries and that TT will fit Brad's system like a glove...so that I get my preferred:

Smart, Jalyen, Jason, GWill, Thompson

I don't think starting Teague makes sense....so that's probably what will happen..

I agree with starting Teague.  He was brought in to back up Kemba.

This is also the lineup I would go with, even when everyone is healthy I like the idea of leaving Thompson and Teague as higher minute 6th/7th man.

I agree. Having two stable veteran players coming off the bench last year is exactly what we needed last year.

Timelord needs to be an impact player/starting player. This is Year 3 for him?

yes, year three. i also think this is the year where he shows us all whether he will turn into a good nba player or not.

i am looking forward to seeing the younger players develop. if nesmith is good, the celtics bench is deep with a range of players.

I think this year was a really good year for role players and the Celtics really needed role players so I can’t wait to see what we got.

I like to see what Teague can do.

He will be playing for his last contract this year.

Also, like the idea of giving TL heavy minutes early, then trading him...

Unless Timelord has improved his defence by leaps and bounds I don't want him anywhere near our rotation now that we have two starting calibre bigs at the centre position.

Ideal rotation with Kemba out:
PG: Smart, Teague, Fast PP (it was actually his Twitter handle before he got drafted lol)
SG: Brown, Smart, Green
SF: Tatum, Nesmith, Semi
PF: Grant, Brown/Tatum, Semi
C: TT, Theis, Robert

Rotation with Kemba healthy:
PG: Kemba, Teague, Fast PP
SG: Brown, Smart, Green
SF: Tatum, Nesmith, Langford
PF: Grant, Brown/Tatum, Semi
C: TT, Theis, Robert
