Howard is only an 11-12 field goal attempts per game guy. The only people that may take a hit in field goal attempts is the 1 & 4 spots. Harden's field goal attempts could possibly go up with the extra defensive stops Howard brings and the attention he may draw on the offensive end. And Howard isn't a good passer out of the post so the offense can't be predominantly ran through him and he needs other players like Harden to help get him looks at the basket with the pick & roll because of his limited offensive skill set.

If what you say holds, then the bench is gonna have to score a LOT. I'd up Harden's and Howard's numbers to 24 and 22 respectively.
Lin: 11pts, 7.5Apg 3rpg Harden: 25ppg, 7apg, 5rpg Parsons 16.5ppg, 6rebs, 5apg Jones: 8.8ppg , 6.1rpg Howard: 24ppg, 13rpg, 60% FT!!!

new here. but i would think jones will start at pf and my predictions are Lin 13.2ppg/7.5apg/2.9rpg Harden 25.2ppg/6.6apg/4.5rpg Parsons 14.8ppg/3.2apg/5.7rpg Jones 11.1ppg/1.5apg/8.5rpg Howard 20.1ppg/1.7apg/14.2rpg Bench: 20ppg
Lin 13 3 8 Harden 26 5 7 Parson 16 6 3 DMO 10 5 2 DH12 22 13 3 I dont see Beverly as a starter ahead of Lin, and I think TJones is better fit coming off the bench with Asik when DH12 is gettin his rest.
If Lin's 3pt% >37% 16ppg/8apg otherwise 12ppg/9apg Harden: 23ppg/5apg TJones: 12ppg/3rpg Parsons: 15ppg/3apg Howard: 20ppg/13rpg
