Problem with hypothetical minutes would be you might end up with a bad match up while key guys are still resting. That's why the 9th player get around 2-5 minutes. There's also the foul situation.

This except a big NO to Crowder at PF and Smart at SF.  Zeller and Jerebko should only be used to eat a few minutes here and there in case of foul trouble or in blow outs.  No small ball.

The IT/Bradley/Smart/Crowder/Horford lineup has been fine post-ASB, with a +5.8 net rating.  It can stick around as far as I'm concerned.  It's not the primary starting lineup's +17.1 rating in that same time period, but it has its place.

Yes. Any rotation that gives KO the 30 minutes he deserves is beneficial. I might give Brown a few more minutes, or maybe a handful for Rozier, but I could live without seeing Jerebko or Zeller the entire postseason.

The obvious answer is neither.

That and other small ball line ups only show success do to there heavy usage in end game scenarios where the Celtics are being fouled and I.T. is shooting a million free throws.  Those same line ups outside of those end game scenarios are awful.  In 37 minutes outside of the 4th qtr. and overtime that line up is -19 points in 37 minutes.  In 55 minutes in the 4th qtr. and overtime spanning 25 games that line up is +26 having made 53-57 free throws.

That line ups only usage should be in end game situations where the C's have a lead and even then it would be better to have another big on the floor so they might actually be able to get a stop and rebound.
