Jeremy Lin or Patrick Beverley? 

It's a question the Houston Rockets must grapple with until they decide which talented player is going to be the starting point guard for the 2013-14 season. Although it's by no means a permanent decision—we've seen starters moved to the bench countless times—it's still an important one. 

As head coach Kevin McHale told the Houston Chronicle's Jenny Dial Creech, he's working with "two starting point guards." It's one of those good problems, but the Rockets still have to figure out what to do. 

Why?

An elite team can't have question marks at multiple positions, as made clear by B/R's Dan Favale, who wrote, "This particular decision is one the Rockets must get right. They'll already playing with fire at power forward and center, and can't afford to get burned at another position too."

What's the right answer? Should it be Lin or Beverley suiting up next to James Harden, Chandler Parsons, Dwight Howard and whoever plays for the Rockets at power forward?
