Favorite 5-Man Lineup 

Post#1 » by Mr. E » Thu Nov 19, 2009 4:58 pm

As we all know, the Rockets are a situational lineup team, so Rick's going with whatever works.

That said, what has been your favorite 5-man lineup on the floor so far this season?

So far for me it's Lowry/Brooks/Ariza/Landry/Scola

i am not quite sure. i really like the way adelman substitutes under different circumstances...
but i am a more offensive-minded person and i kinda like our 2 guard combo, so i'd go w/
brooks/lowry/ariza/scola/landry or maybe brooks/lowry/budinger/scola/landry, cuz of ariza's low
fg %.

Entirely dependent upon who is opposing at the time. That said...

Brooks/Battier/Landry/Scola/Hayes

ScoLandry is interchangeable. I like Brooks and Lowry for different reasons, but I think this one maximizes both our defense and our offense. But it depends upon who's out there opposing... Matchups. I like Lowry. I like Andersen (I think he will end up being a very reliable scorer). I like Budinger. But at this point, they're only really good for certain situations.

My judgement is still out on Ariza, though he does look promising.
