So the guy has blown us up every single game we've played against Portland. Is there a reason we haven't done anything different to guard him? What do you guys think we need to do to keep him in check?
McHale doesn't know how to guard him. He just threw every player at him and then every player got shat on
Mchale is offensive minded....TJones did put up some major buckets for us. Mchale has no plan coming into games..he REACTS instead of being proactive. if our defense improves its not because of our coach.
There is no guarding LaMarcus Aldridge. Not one individual. Not Howard, not Asik, not Jones, not Motiejunas, not Harden,...
I think Houston need to stop playing small down the stretch and missing out on critical rebounds. Put Asik on Aldridge down the stretch. All in all, good game by both teams. They just need to find a way to contain Aldridge and utilize Asik better.
I would throw a double team, and live and die by portland's 3. I would get parson to help with the double hes quick enough to recover. we cant keep letting LMA get 30 - 40+ pts. Id rather lose with him getting 10 and 10.
