I assume this will be the rotation? If Luc has anything left then who does he bump? Tucker Covington House Harden Westbrook Gordon, Rivers and Green off the bench
To be honest I hope I hope they use a 9 to 10 man rotation for a long playoff stretch, given that they are all in on small ball with other teams playing their bigs, the Rockets depending a lot on the 3 ball (which means you don't want Rockets players to have weary legs down the stretch), effective switching defense requires a lot of consistent energy/work and we have a few players 30+ years old. Hopefully Luc and DMC can be the ninth and tenth player to add to your lists above with BMac getting some minutes now and again like Gerald Green in the past did to give the Rockets an offensive jolt with his 3 pt shooting.
Hope it will be 10-11 man rotation and the 2 guys at end of rotation will depend on match up/hot hand/other. With this 2nd training camp, House starting position not guaranteed. Green, DMC, Luc (healthy) and hopefully Bruno will push for that starting spot. And if EGo not 100% yet, would much rather see BMac as 1st guy off the bench. He is the Rockets most consistent 3P shooter this season. Both Green and Covington have been great additions on OFFENSE, not just defense, due to their ability to shoot 3ball efficiently AND also put ball on floor and attack the rim.
In a recent interview Morey said he informed MDA that an optimal number of rotation players was 9. Link:
17days away, anyway it has been coming late for months if i happened to get hit by covid-19 before july 31st, would be shutdown in my house n get nothing to do but watching games.....
You know, there was a time, JR the Machine would be the first to post EVERYTHING. Now? I don't know. I hope he doesn't have the 'Rona. But if healthy, he's slipping. Either way, I am depressed. "First the Fat Boys break up. Now this."
