Amir, we need some sort of scoring/shooting off the bench, KO is about all we have for that.

Well, brown is shooting 40% from three point land over the past 25 games. He could be a scorer for that unit.  But I get your point. Thus far, the bench has trouble scoring.

He's started JJ a few times this year based on matchups, so clearly he will take that into consideration. 

I like Amir starting and KO off the bench personally, as others have said we need his offense.

As bad as this sounds KO is our most reliable SCORER off the bench. Smart, Brown, Rozier, Zeller can do other things better each night but bench scoring has been awful so KO is best suited there.

The Nets will finish with the worst record and the Celtics will end up with the 4th pick.

I wish Stevens would start jaylen at sg and bring AB off the bench. Just so we have some type of go to player for the 2nd unit. As for the pf it doesn't really matter, at this point in the season you could argue that amir is the better offensive player out of the 2. Kelly has regressed ALOT the 2nd half of this season. He has an awesome game against GSW and has been non existent ever since. My vote would be for amir solely on the fact that he's an actual presence in the paint and we need all the defensive help we can get to surround IT
everyone got so sensitive after 9-11... thanks alot bin laden

Start Kelly, but also start Brown.

Amir and AB off the bench. Both players run out of gas and disappear at a similar rate, maybe less minutes will help this.

Yabusele and Zizic. Al Horford will be a fantastic sixth man. Or sevent, since we also have to start Jaylen Brown istead of Thomas. :D

I feel Amir gives us a chance at a reb or a block every once in a while

If everyone is healthy (and I think they are), Amir has been the starter all season.  Why would a 51-53 win team change that?

If Avery is playing, we have enough scoring in the starting line-up.  Match-ups may come into play as to who is on the court at the end of the game but the starters are the starters.

This is a great question that I wished went a bit further. In this scenario I voted for Amir to start, but I think changes are needed to stabilize our 2nd unit... which would involve moving a few of our current starters to the 2nd unit.

Starting Lineup: Horford, Amir, Brown, Bradley, IT (Good ball movement and decision making, with big shot potential and slashing with Brown and IT)
2nd Unit: KO, JJ, Crowder, Green, Smart (Defensive grit, floor-spacing bigs that can clear out creating room for Green to slash... heavy Smart post-ups)
