    Looks like someone is worried about getting phased out of the rotation

    Nobody can take Brewer's minutes. He will always play for rockets until eternity and beyond. At least in the hearts of JBB and Milkhair.

    I think our rotation if Dmo can or play Harrell is gonna look like this

    Bev/Gordon (28/30)
    Harden/ Ariza (34/4)
    Arise / Dekker (28/20)
    Ryan/ Dmo (30/ 18)
    Clint / Dmo / nene (30/2/16)

    So we have bev at 28 min
    Gordon with 30 min
    James with 34 min
    Ariza with 32 min
    Ryan and Clint play 30
    Dmo and Dekker with 20 each off the bench
    And nene or Harrell with 16 mpg

    That's about what a 9 man rotation looks like . Playing anymore guys means that someone's gonna drop below 15-20 mpg and that might not be enough .

    It is gonna depend where the coach sees the cutoff in talent .. If he thinks Brewer or Harrell deserve minutes too it will be tough to squeeze them in for 10mpg each but it's possible , but he would have to cut pat and egos minutes .

    You could do something like this , it would require a pretty strict substitution pattern

    Bev Gordon ( 27/27)
    James/ Brewer (33/9)
    Ariza / Dekker (28/20)
    Ryan / Dmo (28/20)
    Clint /nene/Harrell (28/10/10)

    Most people think you need more pt than 10 minutes to get in a rhythm .

    I'm not worried about trying to find a rotation ... Things will shake themselves out . For now I am glad to have the depth

    No one takes minutes from Brewer and doesn't pay the price ...

    Also he fact that feigen is still mentioning Dmo / hasn't ruled out his coming to the team tells me that maybe the physical issues are not the nail in the coffin a lot of us think .

    Brewer with only 11 minutes this game. Second fewest of the season.

    Dekker and Harrell are saying, stay down.

    Hell all Rockets fans are saying that. The less Brewer the more I like it.

    Once the Rockets realized Brewer's minutes were in jeopardy, they invalidated Motiejunas' physical.
