    I'm serious. Maybe after playoff position is set. At least try it for a period.

    Get Asymmetrical on their asses.

    Absolutely, but they won't do it because they are cowards.

    But, the opponents would never fall for Anderson's head-fake then.

    No, that would be unwatchable...especially if they're cold which happens a lot.

    Might's well go all in and play 4v5 on defense and get those ever illusive cherry picked corner 3's.

    Yes only 3's

    Even any free throws should be shot from beyond the 3 point line

    Harden's step-back game has stepped up, this game.

    Ariza's last drive.... ugly, but effective.

    Hope his swished FT leads to 3PMs.

    Dribble up, one pass, jack a 3 from 5 feet behind the line. Lather/rinse/repeat.

    sure. As long as they're all shot from mid court.

    3 cannot beat spurs. Need more rebounds and defence

    It would be amusing, but it would be insanely easy to defend once it became clear what was happening. The only options by the end of the first quarter would be to break down and drive to the basket, or shoot from halfcourt.

    Amusing is reason enough to do it.

    NBA is about fun.

    Then boom the tables are turned.

    This strategy is elite.

    This would be a terrible strategy, unless we get Rubio and move Harden off ball, then it becomes very interesting.
