"Everything's a possibility," Wilkens said. "I'm going to practice both of them at that spot and see."

Thomas struggled to begin the season and even found himself in Wilkens' doghouse for a time. But Thomas has scored in double figures over his last three games, including 19 points in 33 minutes against the Celtics.

"I've played so many positions in my career, with my height," the 6-10 Thomas said. "I'm willing and capable of anything."

Maybe this will rejuvinate him and the second half of the season will be much better.

Who knows, maybe this will help him. If he does play at the 2, expect to see a lot of postups.

If they play TT at the 2, it probably means they don't think Houston is ready to start. JYD would probably start at the 3.

One thing is for sure you can't start Ariza and JYD together. Teams would play zone and double Marbury for the whole game. Ariza has to improve on his shooting.
