Houston would get abused on the boards with that lineup.

I think it would work. Deron Williams and Derek Fishers are the starting guards for Utah and Deron is 6'3 Derek Fisher is 6'2 so why not start Luther Head along with Rafer Alston.

How you going to pick up the tempo with Yao playing the 5, and Mutumbo off the bench?

Neither are the fastest or most athletic centers in the league, this lineup just doesn't work.

Lineup should look something like this.

G- Tracy McGrady
G- Luther Head
F- Shane Battier
F- Charles Hayes
C- Yao Ming

McGrady has some seriousl point guard skills, I wouldn't mind having him as the lead guard and having Luther there for backup. Also, the frontline doesn't get abused with rebounding and Battier just bring the rest of what the Rockets are missing each and every single night.

And you think Battier can do a better job?

I don't think so.

Actually it will be pretty good. Battier is always behind the 3-pt line right? Boozer won't be in the paint to contest any lay-ups. I think it's pretty good.

Might just be a bit of a pipedream but I can't help but think Gerald Wallace would make Houston a much stronger team. At PF he can out-rebound Hayes and can definitely put up more points than most others in the Rockets lineup.

Sure why not, but that won't mean we're gonna sign him. We're far from that. But i definitely agree that he can compete with those big names out there, with the such leaping ability and aggresiveness.

What are you talking about, Yao was matched up with Boozer, that's why he was dominating, cause Yao is too slow. When Chuck had looks at him, Boozer struggled.
