I'm okay with this, and eventually some of these rooks would steal starter minutes. Lin/Machado/ Martin/Lamb/Douglas Parsons/White/Morris Patterson/Jones/Leuer Asik/Motiejunas
i really don't think k-mart will be a rocket this season, or get much playing time. PG: Lin SG: Lamb SF: Parsons / White PF: Patterson / Dmo C: Asik / Jones i think we can make the playoffs with our new rooks
PG Lin SG Richardson SF Parsons PF Patterson C Howard that will be our lineup and i will take this lineup all day compared to the ones with rookies and asik.
As we stand now? Lin/Douglas/Livingston Martin/Lamb/Forbes Parsons/Morris/Forbes Patterson/White/Luer Motiejunas/T. Jones/Harrelson Yes I put Terrence Jones as a C. He's big enough to play backup C and it clears our logjam at sf/pf. Also, Motie and Patterson can play either 4 or 5 depending on the matchup.
it's kind of weird, i dont even consider Kevin Martin a Rocket anymore..it's kind of sad. i hope he has a bounce back season though.
and when dwight leaves and we are terrible with no young talent or draft picks what are we going to do? Just think about it. If Dwight leaves, we will be one of the worst teams in the NBA. Nobody would wanna come here and we'd have no draft picks to show for it.
We will have draft picks. As of now, because of the protected pick that we owe Atlanta, Houston is prohibited from trading their own draft pick until 2018. Once we make the playoffs, they we have to convey our pick to Atlanta and then we can start trading draft picks again but not before. Unless we go acquire an unprotected first rounder then it's impossible for us to include any of our own first round picks before 2018 in a deal for Howard. The good news is if we end up as "one of the worst teams in the NBA" as you say then those picks should be very valuable.
Go big or go home. All youngster lineup PG: Lin/Douglas/Machado SG: Lamb/Martin SF: Parsons/White/Morris PF: Motiejunas/Jones/Patterson C: Asik/Motiejunas/Patterson
PG Jeremy Lin SG Jeremy Lamb SF Rudy Gay PF Donuts C Omer Asik TURKISH HAMMER STOPS ALL!!! Because no one else can play D LoL
that lineup would get you anywhere from the 3rd to 8th pick in the draft. but that with and toronto's pick you would be set up for the future very nicely.
Ideally you would want to start the rookies and tank . But that's not the rockets style. Despite how experience some of these rookies are, most will still be brought on slowly off the bench. So with that said, I see this as our starting lineup and bench: Starter's. PG: Jeremy Lin SG: Jeremy Lamb SF: Chandler Parsons PF: Patrick Patterson C: Omar Asik*(still could be matched) Bench- (Run & Gun Youth) PG: Toney Douglas SG: Zoran Dragic SF: Royce White *(primary playmaker) PF: Terrence Jones C: Donatas Motiejunas
