The Boston Celtics select their sixth man: Taj Gibson
I'd be tempted to start him ahead of Monroe at PF.

Give Timmy a PF with above average quickness for the position alongside him defensively. Gives your lineup more jump-shooting and spacing offensively too.

Use Monroe as a combo big man sixth man.

I concur

I actually disagree. I think starting Monroe limits Timmy's need to bang in the post as he can drift to the elbow and use his passing skills in the high post as well as his nice jumpshot. Hopefully that will limit some wear and tear on him. But I will admit it's possible that Gibson would be a better fit, which is why it's good that all 3 are such high character guys willing to make sacrifices to make this work. it may take some experimenting with minutes in the first half month of the season or so.

Thoughts on my Jeff Green selection?

i really like your lineup
Thank you. TP.

This next pick is important for you. If you grab a good defender it could balance your lineup. If you get an athletic wing to run with Nash that couldn't hurt. Either way your team is in good position for a deep playoff run.

Your team really reminds me of the Thunder, albeit with no KD, but Wall is similar to Westbrook in many ways. Smith to Ibaka. Okafor to Perk. Green used to be there... I like the potential.

I disagree, I really don't like the frontcourt of scola and Perkins, not a lot of mobility and they kind of get in each others way.

I would keep Monroe out there.

He can have it. I have three more picks in the next two rounds. Playoffs or Bust.

When Jeff Green plays well for the real Celtics this year you will become a believer.
