    Not sure that's a total insult... Turkoglu was a pretty good player before his huge contract (and decreased play) changed perception.

    So...is this our main rotation for the regular season?
    Lin/Livingston
    Martin/Delfino
    Parsons/^
    Patterson/Jones
    Asik/Smith

    Seems...lacking in rookie development.

    Greg Smith has made some fantastic progress, and he is still only 21 years old...


    I love it...

    Yeah I know. TJ will learn though and will get better in handling guys who just Shaq themselves into the paint.

    What really excites me about this young Rockets team is that they still can put up points...regardless of the team being young...if the team can keep putting up points, this team will be a middle of the pack team...Bottom line...as the season progresses...I hope that the offensive efficiency only improves...(ie less turnovers, and finishing around the basket...)

    GO ROCKETS...

    Guess we'll find out soon.

    Wouldn't be surprised though. I said in the other tanking thread that other than Jones, McHale has no reason to play Lamb or D-Mo or White.

    Unfortuantely for D-Mo Jones has the backup PF spot locked and D-Mo is going to struggle playing center.

    Unfortunately for Lamb he's not going to beat out a solid veteran in Delfino for minutes unless he goes out there and plays out of his mind.

    Unfortunately for White he seems to be a project player.

    So how long is PPat out? This might give T-Jones a chance to win Rookie of the Year...

    I think Morris has a great shot at getting a spot in the rotation. He looked fantastic before getting hurt. McHale said the same thing...

    He really did look very good.

    But it's hard to see how many minutes he could get.

    You can rotate Martin/Delfino/Livingston/Parsons in the 2-3 spots and keep everyone fresh.

    Morey will trade Martin once Lamb is NBA ready.
