Let's just say that all thing potential roster moves become a reality and the team becomes: PG Jack SG Harden SF Parsons PF J. Smith C Howard What teams would this roster struggle with? I know that we'd need to know more about what other teams end up doing with their rosters, but only two teams make me nervous: Denver, for the high energy defense and Miami, because they have an incredible roster. Who do you think would give us fits? Or what types of teams would this roster struggle with? It's time to talk basketball!
If Iggy leaves I'm much less confident in Denver. He was their primary wing defender and a major playmaker, especially on the wing.
I have no idea why Jack's name was mentioned. Maybe so Houston can send Lin back to Golden State, where he's beloved? Jack can play if he's in the right spot. I like him as a player. Still, Doc Rocket says he thinks Lin will be here next year. So I'll wait to see too much on Jack. The team, that team, would be extremely athletic. Good shooters, young, athletic, active. There is a bit of a "hole" in the West right now. Spurs are a bit old at key spots, and OKC doesn't look as good without Harden. Might take a year for things to gel, but the payoff could be large. Miami is not getting any younger.
We have no way of knowing what the context behind YoYo hearing Jack's name was. I don't think what he heard was enough to conclude that we're going to try and trade for him.

correct me if I am wrong would we basically relegated to having essentially no bench. As far as having money to afford a decent bench with that lineup. I haven't gone through the numbers yet but to me it seems having J. Smith, Howard, Harden and Jarret Jack would come at a high cap price.
We'd be an elite team with that lineup for sure.. We'd struggle with consistency based on our youth, losing to teams we really shouldn't early on But in a few seasons i think the only teams that would give us issues would be the usual teams with superstars and maybe athletic teams rebounding from the 3 down, like Denver
I think Howard puts us in a threshold where we get the MLE. I'm not even close to being an expert, but I think* I read bimathug saying this somewhere. Maybe it was his webisode.
Beverly, Jones, Dmo, Garcia (maybe Anderson & Smith?), Canaan, that kid we just signed for the minimum and probably another scrub big, lol, not great but certainly not the Miami bench of 2011
Thank you. So, it sounds like depth is becoming an issue. A team like the clippers could give us fits as well. They are a high powered offense that tends to go around you before you can stop them. CP3 ain't nothing to mess with.
