    you want DaDakota as your backup center? :D

    all I can say about this idea is......Lou Pinella.

    I think if Rick did something like that, he'd be admitting that his system has failed and he's giving up.

    This would be better:

    C- Yao
    PF-Scola
    SF-Artest
    SG-Wafer
    PG-Alston

    Bench-5 as following

    C-Scola/Hayes
    PF-Landry
    SF-Battier/Tmac
    SG-TMac/Barry
    PG-Brooks

    Alston needs the ball in his hands to be effective, ergo, he and tmac cant play at the same time.

    Brooks plays better with a veteran SG (barry/tmac) so he doesnt panic.

    Artest and Tmac shouldnt play together since they ISO too much or chuck up shots.

    finally, squeeze in Deke in there somewhere.

    I can't play center, but I could dust off my PG game and shoot better than Rafer.

    :D

    starting lineup:
    PG: Aaron Brooks
    SG: Wafer
    SF: Artest
    PF: Scola
    C: Yao Ming

    bench:

    PG: Rafer/TM
    SG: TM/BB
    SF: Battier/TM
    PF: Hayes/Landry
    C: Scola/Deke

    I think this maybe perfect lineup, also TM come off the bench would be much better than now.

    I go with who is producing
    Brooks
    Wafer
    Artest
    Scola
    Yao

    I think that if you surround yao with legitment three point threats and not the horrible starting cast he has to start a game we are much better

    bech

    alston
    tmac/barry
    battier
    landry/Hayes
    Deke/Scola/Hayes

    Battier needs to only play like 20 because he is not the battier of old
    tmac 25-30 because he is to outta shape or lazy or hurt to play any longer
    Alston 20 or less depending on if its good alston or everyday crappy alston
