Labels would be really counterproductive for that kind of lineup. Vanderbilt would be playing in the dunker's spot on offense (so basically the 5) and would be guarding whoever was needed on defense.

Guess it would be a Sexton/Conley backcourt thing, which makes sense. Doesnt really bother me.

Moves Beasley or KO to the bench though. I do think we should be really working to play Beasley a bunch to pump his value or see if he is a good long term piece.
I'll go Conley, Sexton, Lauri, Vando, OK.
That probably isn't the worst starting lineup in the league. Having both Beasley and Clarkson off the bench might be rough.

There is no way Sexton isn't in the starting lineup on opening night, also no way THT is in the starting lineup.

To start the season.
Dok
Markkanen
THT
Conley
Sexton
Regardless of midseason trades or not the starting lineup will be:
Vando
Markkanen
THT
Agbaji
Sexton
At the end of the day there will be defensive issues on both sides of the ball, Vando and Agbaji are the most likeliest candidates to progress and show out. Dok is limited and injury prone, KO is horrible defensively and a better fit off the bench.
Conley’s effectiveness really went down hill last year, and clearly slowing down, and won’t be able to hold off Agbaji all year

Also at some point we will have lost enough games to where focus on winning changes to more of let’s get the young guys experience and ready for next year
Yes. It will be an undersized backcourt, but so was Conley and Donovan.
