    Harden
    Paul
    Capela
    Tucker
    Gordon
    Faried
    Rivers
    Shumpert

    That's not a bad 8-man playoff rotation.

    I prefer to choose move tucker to small forward as starter to solve small forward problems. bench Gordon Jones and shampert. shampert is Ennis level.

    starter Iineup
    Harden
    Cp3
    Tucker
    Faried
    Caplea

    It can increase our defence.

    Bench
    Rivers
    Gordon
    Shampert or Green
    Jones or Green
    Nene

    Defence can win championship

    I was definitely wrong about Faried being only a 5 here. Small sample size but he did play well against GS with Capela. Either way, very happy with Faried and Rivers. I'm sure Shumpert will be a factor from here on out as well.

    Capela
    Faried
    Tucker
    Harden
    Paul
    Gordon
    Shumpert
    Rivers
    Nene

    We just need to stay healthy and us being able to sign House next week.

    Sign House next week? Is there news about that? If figured they would wait until March 24th to convert him. hopefully that has changed because we could still use all the depth/talent we can muster. Also, you got to like House's confidence on offense/defense. I think House and Shumpert should get some PT and put Green on the bench. I love Green but his defense is just not good enough to go with his streaky shooting. It seems Shumpert/Green/House will be fighting for minutes. I have to assume Shumpert will get every chance to earn minutes once he is healthy but I still would like to see what House could do as a backup 3/4.

    If we can have a 9 or 10 man rotation somehow throughout the playoffs, I think we can beat teams with depth alone like we did the Warriors. Depth is underrated and the addition of Cousins on the Warriors allows us to actually matchup pretty well with them and let us play big. It is tough for us to compete with them when they play small.

    Capela/Nene/Faried
    Faried/Tucker/House
    Tucker/Shumpert or House
    Harden/Gordon
    Paul/Rivers

    Being Undersized is an understatement here...
