    The problem I see with this starting line up is poor defense at the 2-3-4.

    Either Hill has to play the 5 and learn defense, or put Twill or Morris at the 3.

    I just dont see being able to play Kmart and Bud at the same time and expect to stop other teams which many feature their best offensive players at those positions (the 2 & 3).

    Lowry, Martin
    Lee
    Scola
    ?

    Maybe put Scola at Center? Patterson at PF? Have a collapsing defense when the ball is thrown to the post? We have a big hole at the center position. That's what she said.

    I would start Patpat and let luifa be our manu, instant offense from the bench and still average 30 minutes.

    PPat is still not able to practice, may miss the beginning of the season if he doesn't get better soon.

    Iowa Energy owns rights to Blakely. Here's my story in the Free Press, which includes comments from agent Sam Porter: twurl.nl/yuus8h

    The Rockets cut Marqus Blakely. His agent says he has taken calls from other NBA teams, but a return to D-League might be a possibility.

    Shouldn't be a problem with the season being so different.

    No...His D is atrocious and it was clearly obvious last year when teams exposed him time after time. No per stat can hide this
