This is how I see our roster. PG: Alston / Vspan / Lucas SG: Snyder / Head / Sura SF: McGrady / Novak / Bowen PF: Battier / Hayes / Howard (traded) C: Yao / Mutombo I see the IR list initially including Lucas, Sura and Bowen. We still have one roster spot available which could go to someone we get via the TPE or someone for training camp fodder. I think with the acquisition of Battier, Howard will be aggressively shopped. Battier takes the place of Howard on this team. Thus Hayes is the first big off the bench to bring a different dimension into the game. I have Snyder starting at the 2 guard spot because of his length for defensive purposes. As it stands now I bet Vspan, Head and Hayes will be the main 3 guys off the bench in the 8 man rotation with Novak and Mutombo being the situational players.
