I take it that Eddie will play only limited minutes here, right? I've read some posts on ESPN and I thought most there were wanting him to play PF, not SF. As for everything else, it looks alright to me, but I am bad at predicting. *Edit* AAHH! My post is in Bold. Oh well. I'm new to these darn internet commands. I'll just leave it.
It's terribly hard to predict stats at this point in the seasons, considering a) there are roster moves yet to come, b) health issues exist with Rice and Taylor, and c) the rotation has not been set. In any case, with Rice and Nachbar on the roster, Eddie won't be playing the small forward spot. I don't think the Rockets will keep 4 PG, yet alone 4 SF. Rice won't be shuttled entirely out of the rotation unless he's not healthy at all. This is probably something better saved for late October, when it's feasible to project lineups and stats.
That's what I was thinking as well. But with all the other prediction threads, I figured I wouldn't mention it. Besides, we need something to entertain us right?
