Well, the 2012 playoffs also showed how brilliant of a coach Stan Van Gundy is. On this team, I can run like absolutely crazy. Rudy Gay doesn't have to create off the dribble but can focus on his strengths which are shooting open shots, going on the break and slashing to the rim. I like Torque's team but Pau Gasol has shown the difficulty he has against someone athletic and fast which is Paul Millsap. Chandler has shown his ability to shut down Durant and Harden like he did last year but here he has a much much better better perimeter defense around him. My team flows better. His team has a bunch of guys who need the ball in their hands to be effective.
None of my players "need" to have the ball. They are all very unselfish players who look to create and get teammates involved. Teague, Jennings, Harden, Batum, Durant and Gasol are all excellent passers with excellent vision.
