    Oh no doubt. Theres 15 roster spots

    Bev/Ennis/Payton
    Harden/Gordon
    Ariza/KJ/Brewer
    Anderson/Harrell/Wiltjer
    Nene/Capela/Nanu

    That leaves 1 spot open for DMo, Hairston, Taylor or brown (lol)
    I may be forgetting somebody? I dont believe so...

    Harden/Gordon/Brewer
    Ariza/KJ/Dekker
    Anderson/Harrell/Wiltjer

    We definitely need to make a trade to slim down the roster

    You'd rather have a 40 year old Prigs > a young prospect with talent?

    Real playing time is only going to go to about 8 or 9 players. The rest are insurance. That means 6 or 7 players are just sitting on the bench/ practice opponents/ trade chips. Don't stress so much about them they are only going to see garbage minutes in D'Antoni's system.

    To complete my point, here's who is going to be playing:

    1. Harden
    2. Anderson
    3. Gordon
    4. Ariza
    5. Nene
    6. Beverley
    7. Capela
    8. / 9. Brewer / KJ / Ennis (2 of those 3)

    Just being realistic. Even Nick Johnson had simmilar talent. After traded from Rockets he hasnt been in NBA since.

    Im scared that running a 8 man rotation in reg season wont work. Ryan and Eric arent very healthy players. I need dantoni to run a 10 man rotation in reg season and bring it down to 7-8 in playoffs

    Because there's really no where for him on this team. They are too stacked at the 4 and 5.

    Right, but he's 19. We can wait a couple of years. He can learn plenty in D-League and NBA practice.
