RE: Unofficial 2017/18 Off Season MBB's Thread
I mean if your ideal starting lineup is Jackson/Bond/Minnie/JT4/Steele, then I'm saying Green could be coming for Steele's spot.

We are almost certainly going to be starting both Minnie and Thompson, but that doesn't mean one of them has to play center (although that's where Thompson SHOULD be playing...I don't like him on the wing of the zone). Both Minnie and Green have very good shot blocking abilities, which will help Thompson down low defensively. Minnie also can stretch the floor, which means you can get away with playing him as a big SF.

Since we don't really have any experienced SG/SF types (unless you consider Nobles a SF), then I'm all for starting, or finishing with, the five best players on the team. Barring one of the freshmen lighting the world on fire, that should be Bond-Jackson-Minnie-Thompson-Steele/Green.

I don't know enough about Terry Harris, and he could very well be the starting SG, which means I'd go with Jackson-Harris-Bond-Minnie-Thompson. But a big lineup with Green instead of Harris would intrigue me, especially considering how it would look defensively with 6'1, 6'7, 6'9, 6'9, 6'10 and all above average athletes.
