KG
Paul
Ray
Marbury
Perk

or

KG
Paul
Ray
Rondo
Moore or Baby

Besides the Big 3, what other two players would close out close games?  Last year it was Posey and House.  I excluded Powe from the list because he's not a good free throw shooter (Perk is our best defender so he has to be on the list). And even though Rondo isn't a good free throw shooter, he's shown to be a clutch player. I guess we can do an offense/defense switch with him and Marbury in certain situations.

Thoughts?

If you want FT shooters, house would be in.

"The closers" is different from "the FT lineup." In close games, Rondo is in. If we are up 2 with 8 seconds left and about to inbound the ball from a TO, either Rondo is out or he is inbounding.

Rondo's definitely closing out games with the three Stars. The fifth depends on hot hands, matchups and how the second half plays out.
