    1. Lowry
    2. Martin
    3. Williams
    4.Patterson
    5. Scola

    Backups:

    1. Brooks
    2. Lee
    3. Budinger
    4. Hayes
    5. Hill/Miller

    This line up still keeps martin's and scola's trade values valid but at the same time it gives opportunity to our prospects to grow and grow fast!

    I figured changed in H-town was inevitable and this is the best way to implement and direct change the correct way! COMON ADELMAN UTILISE!

    This is to get us the highest draft pick possible?

    1st Question: How old are you? (Lots of mispellings.....lol)
    2nd Question: If Scola has trouble defending at the 4 spot, how in the world can he defend at the 5?
    3rd Question: Why don't we just give our prospects more minutes instead of putting out our all non-defensive frontcourt team?

    by his user name, he is 8 years old. just kidding. i dont mind trying new things, but scola would get slaughtered against a true big man. I would rather us develop our young guys and get them up to speed for next year.

    hahaha space age? Is that some star wars 'epic' user name? Oh and guess what you are twenty years off my actual age. I'm 28 ;)

    Yep the starting 5 is for draft picks.

    i have no problem developing our young guys.

    infact i would prefer a hill/pat front line than scola/pat

    the league has seen what scola can do, IMO thats why most teams send doubles teams at scola now. Scola's trade values imo is extremely high right now.

    a front line of scola/pat would get eaten alive. No way scola and pat can do anything against opposing front courts. Guys like Aldridge, Zbo, duncan, howard, gasol...would average 30-40 against the rox, especially against scola in the middle.

    I would love to see a twill, lee, bud, pat, hill line up as our bench backing up lowry, martin, battier, scola and hayes.

    I love AB's game and i know what he is capable of, but i feel that he has reached his potential as an undersized shoot first point guard. I don't think AB is our answer for the PG position in the future. I don't believe in a pg that can't set teammates up properly (p.s i am not saying lowry is better or worse, so please don't start another discussion on this topic, i have had enough).

    I want to see if Twill can man the point. I feel he has some good court vision and is a willing passer. He just needs experience to cut down on TOs just like how AB was struggling when he first entered the league. Also Twill has the size and quickness to become an elite defender at the PG position like Rondo.

    Yeah another great idea to get destroyed on the defensive end with Scola at the 5.
