Would an ultra-big lineup with Kristaps Porzingis work for the Boston Celtics?

After trading Marcus Smart in a three-team deal for Kristaps Porzingis, Brad Stevens had some interesting comments during his press conference and interview. Stevens mentioned the different lineups that the Boston Celtics will have at their disposal, but he mentioned an interesting one involving Porzingis.

The interesting lineup would feature an ultra-big crew of Jaylen Brown, Jayson Tatum, Porzingis, Al Horford, and Robert Williams. This lineup is crazy, and it makes you wonder, would an ultra-big lineup actually work?
