    The rotation looks pretty set except for the starting & backup SF positions

    With the little evidence we have now.
    Which combination do you think we will see in the playoffs.
    Make an argument for your choices.

    Wood. Cousins
    Tucker
    ???? ????
    Harden. Gordon
    Wall

    It’s still house for the foreseeable future . I imagine Silas will want a few games back with Gordon and wall #1 . If nwaba plays well I could see him being the pick .

    Tate is an option too , but only if we go in a weirder direction. Pj and house get 4 minutes.

    best case scenario ? Broderick Thomas breakouts and is chandler parsons / Shaun Livingston like . And it’s Tate and him manning the 3 . Pj and house at the 4 . Wood cousins . Wall / Gordon / harden / nwaba

    I don't know If he will start, but Jae'Sean Tate will finish.

    He is significantly better than House, Sterling, Nwaba and Tucker.

    Silas WILL NOT BE ABLE to keep him off the floor.

    I'm really liking Tate, I think he'll be the starter or at least the closer by the all-star break.

    Thinking Tate will eventually be our go to defender for the star perimeter player on the opposing team.

    D House should not be starting. He’s like the 8-9th dude off the bench on legit teams

    Tate and Nwaba have earned their 7th and 8th man status in terms in most minutes. House has played his way into 9th man status. Yikes.

    House has had a very slow start so far. I am not ready to kick him out of the rotation but other’s play on the team is. Next few weeks will be interesting for House as a Rocket.

    House do not need to be a Starter, I think David Nwaba...he has the size, 6'5 220lbs, smart and can drive to the basket. He needs to start and try to only focus on DEFENSE...Nwaba IN and House OUT!!

    If Tate can play the 3 then he and Brown should get the majority of the minutes at the 3. Nwaba gets the minutes split between Harden/Wall.

    Nwaba has outplayed Tate last 2 games. Offensively AND defensively.

    Although Tate has deserved his minutes unlike House.

    Depends.

    7th-8th seed - likely 1st or 2nd round exit.
