I actually don't mind a bench that features:

6 a healthy Michael Redd
7 his Robin, Markieff Morris
8 Childress, all rounder finally earning his paycheck
9 Lopez, ninth on the depth chart is probably right for him
10 Price or Telfair

That's a bonafide Primary and complementary scoring option (against bench level opposition) surrounded by defensive oriented guys who might give you a bucket or two here and there.

Of course, Dudley and Frye are also more 6 and 7 guys as well, but if Nash can keep them overachieving as starters we might just do ok this season.

We need to play 10 men deep and no more. Nash/Hill/Gortat/Dudley/Frye and off the bench, Redd/Childresh, Morris, Lopez, Price. Sit Warrick, Brown and Telfair and we might win lots of games.

Well, this might turn into something interesting. Lowry got hurt tonight and is questionable for tomorrow night's game. If he doesn't play, it'd be Nash vs. Dragic... heh, good stuff.

I just feel the Rockets are playing really well right now, went into Portland and handled one of the best teams at home. Tough matchup for us, previous game against them was the worst game of the season for us, hopefully it was an aberration. With that said, I think we play much better, but the Rockets eek out a victory 96-92

Of course, if Lowry is out, that changes things big time as Dragic is a back-up at best. Than Suns win 105-92

I hate to say it, but I call Rockets. We can't handle Parsons, Dalemabert, Scola, Patterson and Hill - i think they're too big for us.
