    As long as the rockets reach .500 and continue to win games, it doesn't matter who starts. Hopefully we get our line-up concrete.

    You showcase players that don't usually get minutes, the league already know what AB can do.

    Having both Lowry and Brooks playing at a high level would be a nice problem to have.

    With a mostly defensive 2nd unit, i think Brooks will fit in almost perfectly.

    Defensive 2nd unit? The 2nd unit consists of the league's worst wing defender and Brad Miller.

    My greatest hope is that it becomes so apparent that Brooks is a better fit as the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd offensive option off the bench that we don't even try to F around with Lowry as the starter. Brooks becomes the new Bobby Jackson (Sacto version not lame duck Rox version) and everyone's happy and we all move on, period.

    Well if that's the case then Brooks still fits in nicely, add the league's worst defensive PG to that unit :)

    Brooks is the starter on this team. It's really not a competition like every seems to think.

    yes he's Adelman priority for the starter,, but since he's coming back from injury, why don't we play him first with the 2nd unit? then we can slowly start him,,

    I don't think so -- sounds like they want to see him in practice and get him accustomed to the offense before he starts stealing minutes.
