You may be right. As much as I like Howard's development at the point, he may not ultimately be as game-ready for combat as Battle and MR will be next year. At the point, especially, Battle will have an adjustment period (about a month). Then all hell will break loose. It wouldn't surprise me one bit to see  that guard rotation: TB, MR and FH as the 3d guy.

At SF, obviously MR can play there. The other two candidates are TL and Moyer .. both of whom have the length to play PF. To my eye, TL will make a great 3 here. His game is perfect for that position, since he can hit the outside jumper and crash the glass. He's already proven that he can defend out to the corner and block shots. Moyer, from what Matt, RF and Bees have been saying, is a baller ... a kid that likes to slam on people. At 6'8" [U]without an established outside game[/U], to me he looks like a PF backup to TR. But if he's as talented and determined as advertised, he could take minutes or even start over Roberson.

Thompson adds another layer. If he comes in, at 6'10" he can play the 4 or backup 5 behind Chukwu. Or he can play PF to give us a big lineup. So for those Moyer fans out there .. here's your competition at PF: Roberson and a 6'10 kid.

Exactly why this is the deepest, most exciting lineup we've had since Dion came off the bench for the 2012 team.
