I can’t do polls here although that would be easiest. But I’ve been very torn. They’ve all had experience starting as recent as even last year so it could go any way. Personally my order would be like

KJ Martin

Oubre

RoCo

Reed

Morris

Batum

Reasoning basically is Oubre good scorer off the bench. Reed I’m still not fully sold on. He’s still way too raw. RoCo I know some said they want him to start but along with Morris and Batum he’s probably slightly too old. We can also play around with lineups. But for now I genuinely would start Martin even tho no one is really thinking about him and he is the shortest of the options. So I’d have him at the 3 and Tobi at the 4.

Also Martin gives you some youth cause if you go RoCo, Batum or Morris. That’s two wings that are 31 or older and it be nice to have someone at that position who is younger cause the past few years it’s been PJ and Danny Green and now Tobi is getting up there. This would be the first time since like pre JJ even that our starting lineup would be no one over the arbitrary age of 32 that I just set. So maybe our pace has been the problem cause it’s been one of the lower paces the past few years.

It’s a good place to be in though, we went from no wings to too many. But I’m curious what others think if I’m way off base. Also all this to say I do think we end up just going our 5 best players and Oubre starts.

    I think it will be Oubre to start until the new guys get some practice with the team. Batum could eventually fit into the PJ Tucker role allowing Oubre to be the 6th man again.
