Iman Shumpert: Starting Game 1

Shumpert will get the start at shooting guard in Game 1 against the Bulls on Monday, KC Johnson of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Analysis:

As expected, Shumpert will fill in for J.R. Smith, who is suspended for the first two games of the series. Mike Miller will also enter the starting lineup, taking the place of Kevin Love (shoulder) as LeBron James shifts up to power forward. Once Smith returns for Game 3, he'll likely reclaim the shooting guard spot, so Shumpert could either shift back to the bench or move to small forward.
