It seems pretty obvious now that the Wolves aren't going to start Jefferson at center, which is a shame. That means you got Jefferson, Gomes, and Smith all battling for PF minutes (with Gomes playing some at SF as well), which basically means neither Gomes or Smith will get the 25-30mpg they shoud be getting.
On the other hand, there is no way that Brewer is a good enough ball handler to play SG. So he'll either start SF or be on the bench behind Gomes. Even though both McCants and Green suck at this point, might as well start one of them at the 2 guard.
On a positive note, Green is pretty terrific in NBA2K8. Easily our second best player behind Jefferson.

Till Brewer get's used to the NBA game I would bring him off the bench. His flexibility would be so useful. He is actually a better passer than people give him credit for. Now he isn't one you want carrying the ball down the court, but he can create down in the paint for our bangers. Craig will get a lot of burn when we go small, but I don't think Jefferson is ready to handle the 5 spot all year. Besides, Theo is holding it down prety well for an old guy.
