    My guess for the minutes:

    PG: Alston (28), Sura (once he is back healthy - 16), Head (4)
    SG: Wesley (20), D. Anderson (20), J. Barry (8)
    SF: T-Mac (40), J. Barry (4), R. Bowen (4)
    PF: Swift (30), J. Howard (18)
    C: Yao Ming (34), Mutombo (9), Swift (5)

    IR: Moochie, Baxter, Glover
    (Released: Vin Baker (buy-out), C. Ward (ass. coach))

    My guess for the numbers (players with significant minutes only, pts/rebs/asts):

    Alston: 10-2-6.5, 1.8 stls, 1.6 threes (will pick him up for my fantasy team)
    Sura: 7-4-4
    Wesley: 8-2-2
    D. Anderson: 9-3-3
    T-Mac: 26-6-7, 2 threes, 2 steals a game, better fg % this season
    Swift: 14-8-1, 0.8 stls, 1.8 blocks - another candidate for my fantasy team
    Howard: 7-5-1
    Yao Ming: 21-11-2, 2.4 blocks - sort of a breakout season

    What's your guess?

    ass coach is right. heh heh

    i think everything is about right. with all the injuries/lack of quality at the PG, alston will probably see 30+ a game. i don't think head will crack the rotation. he'll probably be a garbage player this season. i also don't see d-wes and DA splitting even minutes...the starter will get more i think. perhaps DA will crack the lineup somehwere in the season...d-wes off the bench would be just as nice and effective.

    I think the Swift/Howard mins will be more evenly distributed at first until one of them establishes themselves as the man at the position.

    minutes without sura:


    yao 36 - deke 12
    stro 28 - jho 20
    tmac 36 - bowen 12
    wesley 24 - jb 18
    alston 30 - da 24


    stats are tough to predict but here you go:

    yao 22-10-2
    stro 13-7-2
    tmac 27-6-6
    wesley 9-3-3
    alston 12-7
    --------------
    deke 4-4-1
    jho 6-4
    bowen 1-1
    jb 4
    da 6-2-2
