I got

IT
AB
Jae (as much as I am tempted to bench him)
Jaylen
Horford

6th man KO
7 - Rozier
8 smart

That's what I go with.

Would like to see a lot of Rosier, IT , AB ko, Horford

That to me is our best offensive lineup , while still having the ability to defend.

Bradley
Jae
Jonas
Horford

Rozier
Smart
KO
Gerald

Honestly, I'm tempted to bench Jae in favor of Gerald. The defensive drop off isnt as huge as we would be led to believe. Jae's defensive is supremely overrated, but Gerald is a much better shooter and can actually bring it to the rim.

Gerald is not a good player. He did the trick against Chicago, but lets not forget that he just isnt very good. Gets completely lost on defense and is really hot or cold on O.

Man, if we have to keep asking ourselves this question at the end of every game, then nothing really matters. Just play the normal starters and go from there.

I would almost start Rozier instead of Crowder because Jae is showing nothing.

So, Gerald Green, by himself, gets the Chicago series momentum turned back in Boston's favor and now he is MIA ???? I am not suggesting he needs to always start, but at least the guy brings some offense when Thomas is not scoring. Maybe he helps prevent a 26-0 run.
Olynyk is USELESS - play Jalen Brown over him anyday.

No rhyme or reason to these rotations - it's like Stevens is throwing darts and hoping one hits.

Bradley, Smart, Crowder 4-26 and Rozier, Brown, Green 7-15 Don't play Bradley if he's hurt let him rest. We need some shot makers and shot creators on the floor. Try to find a hot hand and ride it and stop going down in flames playing guys that can't shoot and aren't making a difference on the defensive end. That's my rant and I'll be better tomorrow and will look forward to the next game!

My post-game rotation tonite is 2 xanex now followed by a Crown & Dew chaser every 30 minutes until I can fall asleep and forget the 3d quarter.

Terry is one of the 5 top players right now. Doesn't need to start but he should be getting 25 minutes per game.

Aggressive on both ends, plus the glass. Good handles, aggressive to the bucket plus a solid outside shot. He has risen significantly.

I am going with straight kettle one from the freezer but basically the same thing.

I agree.  Rozier was about the only one tonight who wasn't settling for jump shots.  We need more of that and more of him in game 5.  He and Jalen bring the energy.
