Ideal Starting Lineup?


Jakob

Recommended Posts

Everyone seems to agree on a different starting 5, so who would be your starting 5? I believe everyone would agree that Henderson should be coming off the bench as a 6th man, a lot of fans seem split on Cody Zeller or McBob. 

 

Personally, my starting 5 would be..

 

Cody Zeller, PF

Anthony Tolliver/Michael Kidd-Gilchrist, SF

Al Jefferson, C

Kemba Walker, PG

Chris Douglas-Roberts SG

 

Anthony Tolliver got 27 Minutes in our win against the Pacers, MKG got 15. I think coach Clifford should choose a starting PF depending on who we play. Most fans probably don't even realize how many nights Tolliver has had more minutes than MKG. MKG is the better defender and should be the starter if we are playing an All-Star like Paul George. Tolliver should be starting if we need more offense, his three ball is a ridiculous threat shooting .434%. Cody Zeller should be starting for obvious reasons, well obvious to most.. I really want to see the team allow Cody Zeller/MKG to take more shots and drive to the bucket, they would be more effective and it would be a confidence builder. Take your pick, Gary Neal or Chris Douglas-Roberts, I'd be happy to see both start over Hendo. I digress back to Zeller over McRoberts, I love the guy but, if Hendo is going to be on the bench I think Hendo would benefit from McRoberts playing with him. I'd still like to see McBob get 20 minutes a night.

 

Go Cats!

I'd probably keep it as is but experiment with Neal over Hendo. That gives us two guys in McBob and Neal that are at least decent three-point threats to stretch the floor for our other guys.

I love Cody but inserting him in the lineup would give us virtually no spacing (Kemba would be the best outside shooter), thus allowing teams to "stack the box" on Al.

Hopefully by next season Cody will have a three point shot and we add a SG with range via the draft or free agency. But until then...

Kemba

Neal

MKG

McBob

Who do you take over him? I like PF who can space the floor not a blake griffin who would clog the lane for lebron and dwight

CDR has been a great find. Being 3 deep with CDR, Hendo, Neal is nice but having 3 players about the same at the same spot is a loser. Not enough minutes to spread it around. I think I would start CDR currently, Neal is close, Hendo has never been high on my list. Wouldn't mind him being odd man out.

    • Well I should also say another caveat is positional value. You have to be careful violating that. For the scenarios you are describing, those are also things that free agency is for. Free agency should always set up the draft. Improve the roster and then go shopping for things to potentially take your roster up a notch.  Lastly, we are in scenario 2. Our roster is still not good and we have holes at most position groups. We are actually in the "BPA All Day" range.  
    • what's a lie?
    • I'm very interested in seeing the specifics of these cases. The term "illegal gambling" makes me think this is unrelated to typical sports betting/point shaving and related to something else on the side. That kind of stuff worries me much less than something like we saw with Jontay Porter happening on a larger scale. I absolutely think the feds need to be keeping a much closer eye on this stuff given how much more sports betting is going on these days. I honestly don't care that much if it's a Calvin Ridley situation where a player is betting on league games that he's not playing in; I can see why that isn't allowed, but I don't think that presents a major threat to the integrity of the game on any kind of large scale. IMO, the larger threat to sports in general isn't a large-scale organized crime operation but a bunch of smaller operations or even just individuals who are willing to do what Jontay Porter did. He was a relatively insignificant player in the grand scheme of things, but it's entirely possible we see this type of thing more and more even at the highest levels of sports. If gambling is going to be legalized to the extent that it has been, there needs to be better regulation and a very strong set of rules in place for the sportsbooks, the bettors and for the leagues/teams themselves. I don't get the sense that is the case right now.
