Just a hunch, go with the vets.
-
Because the starting lineup of last game was an issue?
-
I think the starting lineup last game worked just fine.
That said, if the Celts win tonight I do think it will be a result of some unsustainably hot mid-range and outside shooting from Morris, Rozier, Baynes, etc.

We’d bench who? Tatum?

And OJelly.
Neither played particularly well last game.

Start Tatum and Semi

As far as I'm concerned Jaylen and Tatum should continue to start and receive as many minutes as possible -- within physical limits -- from now until the Celts are eliminated.

And until they retire =)

Baynes has looked like a deer in the headlights most of the series on top of that he doesn't really match up with anyone. Pass on him starting plus Morris and Smart coming off the bench together gives some toughness to that unit and Smart actually passes to Morris so that's a bonus too!

Go back to starting Baynes.

The Marcus connection!
-
We need to start Baynes and make Milwaukee defend the post. Their center is Thon Maker, for crying out loud. Horford and Baynes should have their way down low, draw some fouls and offensive rebounds, and play inside-out.
Ojeyele was a nice 1-game trick but there's no reason to start him or play him over Smart in a Game 7.

Fear the deer!

My hunch is stick to your dayjob, and leave the coaching to CBS and his staff.

How did it work out starting two rookies?

1 out of 2
Same % as not starting both in the playoffs.

I'll say one thing, Monroe should get 0 minutes in Game 7. Play Baynes, play Horford, no Monroe.

Better than your suggestion would work and the consensus does not agree with you.

Out rebounded by 11. No rebounds, no rings.
Consensus? LOL

Bingo.
There is a reason Monroe keeps getting traded.

The Celtics were behind until Baynes came in, and then the Celtics went on a 15-0 run.

The problem isn't with playing Baynes. The problem is starting Baynes and Horford together against the Bucks.

2 out of 3.

If Brown is out the first game, I actually might be in favor of starting Morris along with Baynes. A lineup of Rozier, Tatum, Morris, Al, and Baynes would actually matchup very well defensively with Simmons, Reddick, Covington, Saric, and Embiid, which would allow Al or Morris to guard Simmons and make things difficult for him.
It'd also help replace Brown's scoring and hopefully get Morris going a bit more this series.
