Hard to not take Tatum first, he's all nba 1st team and 5th (or 4th?) in mvp voting.

After that it's quite blurry, a bunch of specialist guys and guys that don't really show their worth in stats.

1 Tatum
2. Curry
3. Smart?
4 Green
5 Brown
6 Poole
7 Klay
8 Wiggie
9 Horfod
10 one Williams

Any of them can be the best player on a particular night.

What's blurry about Brown? Regularly gets past two guys on his way to rim, shoots 40% on threes, and plays good to great defense. He's clearly Boston's second best player.

1) Curry
2) Tatum
3) Brown
4) Draymond
5) Smart
6) Thompson
7) Horford
8) Wiggins
9) Poole
10) Time Lord

EDIT: Biggest question mark of the series is how GS defends Tatum and Brown. I assume you start with Wiggins and Thompson on them, but I think Brown will torch Thompson. Curry on Smart, Looney on Horford, Draymond on Time Lord. If Time Lord starts, Green should be able to roam pretty freely and backup Thompson on drives to the rim.

Starting Grant over Rob Williams may be the first adjustment Boston makes.

Maybe, or it could be Smart. Is he better or worse then Klay, Green? For me they're all in the same tier as could be Poole or even Wiggins.

If he roams too far off of Timelord then it’s going to be lob city. There are few guys in the league better than him at catching and finishing that pass.

If Timelord is fit, he moves a few posts up.

Two issues: (1) why are fans rating Horford so high? (2) Most are rating Wiggins too low. He's been the 2nd best player for GSW throughout the playoffs. Klay and Poole have been hot and cold. Both important to wins, but inconsistent game to game.
