    And he's a guy you can put on a Lebron James or a Carmelo Anthony which makes him unbelievably valuable and makes the Rockets really versatile.

    People focus too much on offense, when defense is what we need. Our team had no problems scoring last year, none at all.

    Yes, Lin is important to our team, not only as a leader at pg, but he takes a lot of pressure off of Harden - ball handling, allowing him to rest/spot up. He is also a pretty good defender.

    One side, Harden/Howard screen game, if that doesnt work, lin/smith screen game, if that doesn't work, smith and howard screen game in the high post, or we can dump it into Smith and Howard in the post. We can go ISO with either Harden or Lin.

    many different looks.

    Josh Smith's price maybe too much, salary-wise. If we can't work it out, take Ryan Anderson. He is a capable rebounder, sometimes he has more offensive rebounds than defensive rebounds. I'm sure Dwight would approve of this trade, if JSmoove is not viable.

    Howard and Smith need to switch to this FT style and we're good.

    I wish we could pull it off with just Lin instead of Asik. I just love the idea of have a rim protector or two in the game at all time.

    Seems like Hawks signed Millsap. Don't know how Asik fits with Horford and Millsap now if there's a SnT.
