Should we start Delonte next game, or start Ray at PG and put Green in the starting lineup?
Good question. Not sure.
They'd stick Bibby on Ray. Wade on Green. Green can take Wade in the post. As can Ray with Bibby. Celtics put Green on Bibby and keep other matchups normal. That is a clear win for Boston.
Miami responds by putting James Jones in for Bibby. Go big on the perimeter. Lose a ball-handler. Gain size and defense. Green can take Jones. Still a win for Boston. Plus Miami's offense is less reliable (albeit just as dangerous) without a PG. Their team defense will step it up another notch with that extra size/length. I think that is still a win overall though.
Keep Delonte off the bench but give him some extended minutes.
Yeah, I'd go with Jeff Green in the starting lineup.
