Beverly

I believe it will be up to Bev and/or Jones to prove they belong with the starting 5 as the Rockets pursue a trade to upgrade the positions.
Jones will continue to start. I was just talking about a possible 4th quarter lineup. Obviously we didn't get Carmelo or Bosh during free agency but through Morey's (failed)plans, we could see how much he still drools over a stretch 4 to complement Howard/Harden on the offensive end.
A total floor spacing lineup is imo still very much a part of our team. Ariza will have to make do until we acquire an upgrade.
