    I know Lin as the 6th man would mean he would be a pretty expensive 6th man but I think if the Rockets started Beverley it wouldn't hurt them too much. Harden does a lot of the ball handling so the Rockets have the luxury to do it. Think about... Lin does better when he has the ball in his hands and is the primary scorer like he was in NYC when Anthony was injured. I think we would see more Linsanity moments with Lin as 6th man. I think if Lin and Asik ran the pick and roll in the 2nd unit they would tear up other teams benches. And if you see both lineups there are players who can get to the basket (Beverley,Lin) there are shooters (Harden, Parsons, Garcia, Casspi) and there are rim protectors (Howard, Asik) we would have everything we would need on the court at all times. What do you guys think?

    Starters:
    PG: Beverley
    SG: Harden
    SF: Parsons
    PF: Jones
    C: Howard

    2nd Unit:
    PG: Lin
    SG: Garcia (i know hes a SF but he can shoot the ball)
    SF: Casspi
    PF: D-Mo or Jones
    C: Asik
