Gliddon

It will be live at 8.05 in South Australia, btw.
And I would say your above line up is what is should be, but I still think Lemanis might tool around with the line up.
Pg Mills
Sg Delly
Sf Broekhoff
Pf Motum
C Bogut
Pg Gibson
Sg Goulding
Sf Newley
Pf Bairstow
C Anderson
Pg/sg Gliddon
C Jawai
Guarding Webster..
Plus he can barely bring the ball over half way.
Mills to bring the ball over half way then run the offense through delly.

Think that Lemanis will bring Mills off the bench at first change, and will probably start with this:
PG Dellavedova
SG Broekhoff
SF Newley
PF Motum
C Bogut
He SHOULD start Mills and run Dellavedova at the 2 with Broekhoff at the 3, but Lemanis being Lemanis will probably get this wrong as well.
Will be interested to see how Gliddons goes, I haven't seen much of him.
I'd play him at SG because he isn't a PG.
Doesn't have handles, can't bring the ball up, can't score in the paint or to be honest inside the three point line reliably.
Can get hot from 3 and defend like crazy. SG it is

Does it really matter which one is the official point guard? Neither Mills nor Delly are true point guards. But both can handle the ball and both will get us into our offence at times.
I don't think anyone can say for sure whether Mills should or should not start, unless they have been at practices and seen how he is shooting and how he is meshing with the rest of the team. If he is looking good, Lemanis will probably start him. If he looks rusty, or the rest of the starters are not playing as effectively with him at the moment, then maybe it is better to bring Mills off the bench.
I don't think anyone would disagree with the Bogut, Motum, Broekhoff combination. It's just the backcourt that is up in the air. I think Delly didn't really inspire much confidence in the lead up games, but based on his work ethic and past grit and determination in a Boomers a singlet, I think he is probably our best bet to start and to try to contain Webster.

I hope the boomers game is much better than this opals one

"Why would you have Delly as SG?"
Why not.
He has played considerable minutes there at every team he has been with.

Delly defends the two but on offense plays the one.
Mills defends the one but on offense plays the two.
