3. Howard, asik, parsons harden, Lin Has this lineup even been fielded this season? This is probably our best lineup, push come to shove. I hope we see.
Dmo should definitely have at it against LMA and maybe I can see Garcia on Matthews? Let Daniels shoot the 3 ball please.
Basketball reasons with defense, fast pace, rebounds, this is the best lineup but it hasn't been tried yet
Rondo's game is even more midrange-centric than Lin's.... Rondo would be compatible with "Moreyball" like Dracula is compatible with a cross.
Hopefully D-Mo is inserted into the rotation. When he's in the lineup the ball moves better, and not to mention he's bigger then Jones and quicker then Asik, maybe he can challenge Aldridge better then those two.

It has been tried. This is the line up the Rockets used in their win over Portland in the Rose Garden last November. (Bev was just coming back from injury and came off the bench.) We beat them easily, I think 116 to 102, or something like that.
Hi Mcfail, the chances of winning after losing the 1st 2 games with home court advantage are very very slim. This is not the time to play safe. You need to gamble now. Play those players u dim to be "high risk, high reward" and give them more mins, more roles and responsibility. There is nothing to lose now get it?
Honestly, we've all been b****ing and moaning about double teaming Aldridge, but if we shoot the ball just moderately better as a team we're up 2-0, even with Aldridge shooting some ridiculous percentage. I'd definitely double team at times, but not every time because you will get torched by open 3s if you double every possession. I'd face guard him and do a hard double from the get go just to get him uncomfortable and then switch back to man defense to see if he's on tonight. If he starts making shots you go back to the double.
