It will be interesting to see who can work their way into the rotation. Some spots will be available because of injuries to the starters, or just out-playing the starters. Similar to what Parsons did last season to Chase. Even though I don't think Chase was playing bad enough to be benched. Who's in the rotation by mid-season or at the end of the season is more important than who's in when the season begins. My guess will be Jeremy Lamb.
In that spirit, I took someone's Parson's highlight clip off Youtube and gave it a new audio track. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/KotEFGAgbgA" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
Losing Asik causes 96 minutes of position downgrade. Patterson slides to center fulltime. Rookies and Morris man 48 minutes of PF and 16-20 backup minutes of center. Rebounding and defense go to nothing. I'm thinking Rockets are a 28-35 win team with Asik. Losing him is a 10+game loss, IMO.
Hey, the season hasn't started yet. How do you know Dwight won't still be here on opening night? Especially if we all start tweeting "Welcome to Houston, Dwight".
I thought the same thing and figured it out the same reason. Lin was asked to give Melo the ball once Woodson took over from d'antoni. Anyway, I really like that McHale taught him a different way.
