I think it's Marcus Smart but I think that Kyrie is the straw that stirs the drink!

It is Smart even though he is like the 6th or 7th best player on the team.

Bigs - Pau, Amar'e, Issel, McGinnis, Roundfield
Wings - Dantley, Bowen, J. Jackson

Emotional? Probably Smart.

Overall, though, it’s Horford.

Would have to be Smart. If not him, Horford or Kyrie, but they’re more general leaders imo
'23 Historical Draft: Orlando Magic.

PG: Terry Porter (90-91) / Steve Francis (00-01)
SG: Joe Dumars (92-93) / Jeff Hornacek (91-92) / Jerry Stackhouse (00-01)
SF: Brandon Roy (08-09) / Walter Davis (78-79)
PF: Terry Cummings (84-85) / Paul Millsap (15-16)
C: Chris Webber (00-01) / Ralph Sampson (83-84) / Andrew Bogut (09-10)

Remember the Milwaukee series.
When he showed up it was a whole different feeling, different game.
I have seen it many times.
I felt it on even on TV.

Why not?
Still has a hard time with the little things. Needs to get through a whole year of not breaking things.  Not overly focused.

I picked Jaylen.

All the intensity. 10 times the work ethic and 50 times the intelligence.

I'm a fair critic of smart- I don't think he was a great pick for his draft slot, I think his contract is literally the max you'd have paid him, etc- but he's clearly the emotional leader of the Celtics, and extremely valuably to our team.
2023 Non-Active, Non-NBA 75 Historical Draft, SAB Bulls:

PG: Deron Williams 08 / John Wall 17
SG: David Thompson 78 (HOF) / Hersey Hawkins 91

PF: Larry Nance Sr 92 / Blake Griffin 14
C: Lanier 77 (HOF) / Brad Daugherty 91 / Camby 07

Smart is definitely a hustle leader. He's an intensity leader.

But he's not the goalie. He's not the one dude that remembers the toilet paper and the first aid kit on the camping trip.

He's not the guy that gets people up at 5am for practice or lifting.

He's not the guy that maybe gets players to visit the local historical thing and the 5 star restaurant so nobody gets arrested while in Vegas.

He's not a leader.  He's not a general.
