According to LB, he's looking at a starting line up opening night of:

Felts - Swish - Crash - McMay - EO50

“I don't have any preconceived ideas on who will start. I would assume Raymond (Felton), (Gerald) Wallace, (Emeka) Okafor and (Jason) Richardson. And Sean (May), if he's healthy.

Interesting that McMay will walk into an starting spot after missing so much ball. Also good to see that LB has EO50 down as a 5.

Yep, that's the one interesting thing I came away with from that article.

I assume he'd say that about May because we don't really have any talent at that position. I consider Okafor a C and apparently LB does too, which means our options at PF are Jamereo and May. I'm also happy to hear he doesn't consider Wallace a PF or Felton a SG.

Now if we can land a Boozer to be put there instead of May, then we're a significantly better team. But hey, maybe May's knee really is in good shape and he'll come back and finally give us a full season of quality minutes.

maybe he's sending a message to mr no show, nazr. where the hell has he been all summer? does he get a free pass cause he's old? everyone else on the team made a cameo in vegas.

or maybe he is trying to inflate may's value
