    Articele was just put up on grantland discussing the possibilities the Rockets have with both big guys. The most interesting part was discussing the advantages and disadvantages of playing them at the same time.

    The biggest advantage would be Dwight running the dribble hand offs the way Omer did last year or posting up and Omer coming from the weak side to grab offensive boards (Me likey).

    The biggest disadvantage would be that the paint becomes too clogged when we are not doing one of those two things and Lin and Harden can't drive effectively. Seeing as Harden gets a lot of points off of fouls when driving, this could be a problem (Me No likey).

    Obviously, they won't be playing extended minutes together. But this puts some insight into what we're looking at when they do.

    Any Grantland article about the Rockets is worth posting. No need for the sarcasm.
