Start Rikard, he's the better defensive player and bring Thorne off the bench giving him the most distro of the 2nd line players.
I'm assuming you got Woods and Mack as your centers. Randle is a power forward. Seems like you have to put Vine at PF. Smith doesn't have the Ath to play there. Smith's lack of athleticism will hurt his rebounding if you plan on playing him at the 4. Therefore the rebounding advantage that Smith has over Vine isn't as much as you think. You also have a 90+ rebounder at C to go along with Vine, if you put him at the back up at the 4.
