    I would love this lineup, but looking at them I think of Hootie and the Blowfish.

    Interesting. How many white starters were on Bird's championship team?

    Looks delusional. You are not keeping Parsons and Asik if you are going for Love. Or you lose Harden...

    New Rockets theme song.... Hold my hand

    "..with a little love, and some tenderness
    we'll walk upon the water
    we'll rise above the mess
    with a little peace, and some harmony
    we'll take the world together
    we'll take 'em by the hand "

    "'cause i've got a hand for you
    'cause i wanna run with you
    hold my hand
    want you to hold my hand
    hold my hand
    i'll take you to a place where you can be
    hold my hand
    anything you wanna be because
    i wanna love you the best that, the best that i can "

    "hold my hand
    want you to hold my hand
    hold my hand
    i'll take you to the promised land
    hold my hand "

    tell that to duke ; ) ... hustle and IQ make up for lack of athleticism in the right system.

    No starting 5 could be championship caliber with only one black player in the line up.

    The racial comments on this thread are r****ded. Parsons and Asik are respectively better than most in this league at their respective positions. I think it's my fellow Asians/ Asian Americans that lack the filtration and make stupid comments along with the other idiots that don't see anything other than color. I think Love is overrated and on an injury slide and the Rox should avoid acquiring him at all costs and Ryan Anderson would be a better fit.

    Those 2 aren't valued enough for the Love inquisition. Love is overrated and on an injury downslide.....

    Love is a great player, but he isn't the answer. Our D would get even worse, and our team-athleticism would be pretty poor.

    Don't get me wrong, he'd be a great addition, but for what it'd take to get him, he won't be worth it in wins. Not to mention I'll always hate him for the Scola stomp.

    And he's not a top-10 NBA player, even though ESPN threw him in there for his inflated numbers.
