    Since FA is effectively over for the Rockets.

    PG - Beverly
    SG - Harden
    SF - Ariza
    PF - Anderson
    C - DMo

    Hopefully Dekker can have a breakout season.

    Too early man. I believe there will be more trades to come.

    I am very upset my apologies to all of you, but this is bad day (at least for now).KD to GSW. So I put my bet on China MVP.

    Beverley
    Harden
    Ariza
    Anderson
    Capela

    People are underrating our off-season. I see us being much better than last season. What did everyone whine about incessantly last year? Dwight not trying, not enough 3 point shooters for our 3 point shooting offense, and nobody outside Harden that can create our score. All of those have been adressed. Depending on what else we do, we could have a really solid bench. Gordon is a great 6th man.

    Assuming the rockets don't make a move/sign a established veteran C or an upgrade at pg.

    Capella
    Ryno
    Ariza
    Harden
    Beverley

    Why Capela over DMo?

    Bc he's not a starting center. He may be able to play it in spurts but having him as the starter would be horrible at C

    This has been a fun 2k lineup:

    Gordon
    Harden
    Beasley
    Anderson
    D-Mo

    And when the lack of rebounding becomes a problem, bring in Capela for D-Mo.

    Here is what we'll do though I think:

    Bev
    Harden
    Trev
    Anderson
    Capela

    6th man / guard off the bench: Gordon
    Forward off the bench: Beasley
    Big off the bench: D-Mo

    8 man rotation.

    Ugh at watching Patrick Beverly try and be a starting point guard for another year. Please bench him. I'd rather take a chance on Seth Curry to see if he pans out or spend 10 mil on Sergio Llull as our starter.

    Barring trade or additional signings, I expect Harden/Bev/Ariza/Anderson/DMO. Decent offensive/defensive balance, can spread floor, nice bench unit with Gordon, Beasley, Montrezl, & Capela.

    PG - Harden
    SG - Gordon
    SF - Ariza
    PF - Anderson
    C - Capela

    Ariza/Gordon guard the point guard depending on matchups and Harden defends the opposing team's weakest wing player.

    Because Capela is signed and D-mo isn't?
