    I'm putting up a select all that apply poll for this. Names are listed by total minutes played this season.

    Because of the poll limit of 10 options, I'm not including players on a cheap or rookie contract (Dekker, Harrel, McDaniels). Plus I like all 3 of these players and hope to see them get more playing time next season.

    I'm not including Dwight because it's not the Rockets choice if he stays or not. I'm assuming he's gone.

    Among the 10 players in the poll, I chose Harden, Capela, Motiejunas, and Beasley as players I'd want back. Harden is obvious, being our superstar. Capela is a young, up-and-coming center who is already better than Dwight (though I would be open to trading him since he'd be arguably our best trade asset), DMo can be had for cheap and is Moreyball friendly, and Beasley to help recruit Durant and we have a cheap team option on him.

    Everyone else should be out IMO. Some were advertised as 3&D players (Beverley and Ariza) that actually don't provide a whole lot of either, players that completely regressed to the point of being unplayable (Brewer and Jones), and other players that are old and terrible defensively (Terry and Smith).

    If keep James Clint Dmo and Ariza and bev . Is Beasley a free agent or team option ? I'd rather try to sell high on Beasley than keep him . He is the epitome of a low iq player . He also is a huge black hole. Dmo is obvious keep if healthy and the contract offered isn't absurd .

    Ariza and bev are amazing bench players if you can upgrade at those spots . We should have enough cap to try to solidify those spots .i like Sergio and Batum as guys we can lock up quickly vs having to wait for durant .

    Beasley,harden,moniejunas, dont mind ariza but hes bench starting to be a guy who should come off the bench, cant finish at all anymore and his 3 has been lacking, but his defense is still not too shabby, i'll also keep beverly, dont understand the hate, still love his defense and he shot the 3 well this year, and if we dont have him we have no hustle

    Harden, Capela, Ariza, Bev, Beasley, Dekker, Harrel, McDaniels. I'd love DMo back too.

    Add Llull, Durant and Horford somehow. Cap will be tricky but I'll leave that to Bima and Daryl to figure out.

    If we don't land a superstar, I want to swing a trade for a swiss army knife like Marcus Smart and pick up players like Batum, Courtney Lee, Bazemore, Barnes, and Speights.

    Sadly, they're mostly under contract.

    Yup my thinking:

    Nicolas Batum $16 million
    Mareese Speights $6 million
    Courtney Lee $8 million
    Mirza Teletovic $10 million

    Center: Capela/Speights
    Power Forward: Teletovic/Beasley/Harrell
    Small Forward: Batum/Ariza/KJ
    Shooting Guard: Harden/Lee
    Point Guard: Beverly

    Pray to God Sacramento hires McHale and is generous/stupid enough to trade Collison and Bellinelli to us for Brewer and Dekker.

    Center: Capela/Speights
    Power Forward: Teletovic/Beasley/Harrell
    Small Forward: Batum/Ariza/KJ
    Shooting Guard: Harden/Lee/Bellinelli
    Point Guard: Beverly/Collison

    Harden. That's it.

    Everyone else? I don't care, just so long as a major roster overhaul and talent influx is accomplished.

    Ariza quit too. Let's not pretend he did anything on defense.
