The Read & React: Celtics wear pajamas, beat Hoosiers in Indy sleepover

Versatility leads to odd lineups for a spark (Keith P. Smith): With the Celtics scuffling a bit at the end of the first quarter and in to the start of the second quarter, Brad Stevens turned to a lineup that we hadn't seen yet this year according to nbawowy.com: Kelly Olynyk/Jonas Jerebko/Jae Crowder/Jaylen Brown/Marcus Smart. That lineup had the potential to go really poorly for Boston. It is light on scoring and isn't exactly filled with play makers. But there is a reason Brad Stevens is coaching the Celtics and we aren't, as that lineup did work.
