[King] Joe Mazzulla said the Celtics top six players will all play tonight and go for closer to regular season minutes. They’re starting Derrick White, Jrue Holiday, Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown and Kristaps Porzingis. Al Horford will come off the bench tonight.

    That’s our best starting lineup. Book it.

  2. JonTheHobo

    I’d personally prefer to start all 6 and see if the other team notices

  3. entwenthence

    Im pumped! Haven’t been this excited for preseason games in a long time.

  4. That’s our starting lineup. LFG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  5. I can’t wait til Joe calls the first timeout of the season and the arena goes nuts 🥜

  6. Krrupt_Kudos30

    This is only good if JT is at the 4…hopefully the hey dont have JB trying to be a 4🙏🏾

  7. thereal_kphed

    seems like the no brainer starting five

  8. I_Set_3_Alarms

    Praise Al if rolls with this. Makes the most sense rotation wise. Then during the regular season give Kornet some minutes, followed by subbing in Porzingis and Al for the double big lineup lol

  9. mondomovieguys

    It just makes more sense to stagger Al and KP’s minutes I think.

    This is the starting lineup that makes the most sense vs the majority of teams given roster depth

  11. Happy_rich_mane

    Nice. It’ll be interesting to see how this lineup handles Robinson who is a very good offensive rebounder.

    Love this. Love AL to death. He needs to play less. No more high minutes for the 37 year old this year please Joe

    I’m going to have to call my doctor in 4 hours

  14. Who are Celtics players 6 to 10 or 11? Are they any good?

  15. Professional_Tear960

    anyone know who is playing/starting for knicks

  16. BrothaBTtrouble

    Gonna be a fun season by the looks of things. I really am gonna miss Robs defence and Smarts aggressiveness. Jrue should make up for most of it but i worry about the big men on D

    Don’t matter who the 5 are…

    The real question is whether or not Celtics will learn to use the bench and rest the starters along the way in any game, giving minutes to the bench so the starters last longer throughout the season…

    Including the playoffs…

    Or is it STILL the ole Stevens way of burning the 5 into the ground and are worn out in the push…

    I’m curious how the bench will do. I’m assuming there will be at least two starters in when bench comes in.
