Houston needs to decide if it is going to stay with the post-up offense of Hakeem Olajuwon and Charles Barkley or open up the offense to create driving lanes for Scottie Pippen and Michael Dickerson. Othella Harrington is the only traditional frontcourt player who showed much last season, so that's a weak spot for the Rockets -- especially if Olajuwon or Barkley go down for an extended period of time. After seeing its rookie backcourt develop, the Rockets don't need much attention there but they may be in the market for a true point guard.
