    I think Ty Lawson will help James and Dwights relationship a lot. Dwight is going to get the biggest benefit of having Lawson here.

    This doesn't bod well for Beverly as a starter and Lawson coming off the bench.

    That was never going to happen.

    Lawson is on a completely different level than bev.

    Lawson off the bench - that's comical.

    Bev is coming off the bench where less skilled and injury prone players deserve to be.

    Glad to see that Lawson is going to treat this like a chance of a lifetime. Not only a chance to get his life and reputation back on tract but to also be a part of a championship caliber team. This team, on paper, has what it takes to go all the way. All they have to do is to realize this, sacrifice for each other and put it together on the court every night. It seems like Lawson is ready to commit.

    On McHale; he is never going to be the master play caller but he can really bring a team with so many different personalities together and lead them together successfully. He is probably one of the best coaches in the league in that aspect of coaching. Apart from the obvious elite coaches, I can't think of a better coach for this team specifically than McHale.

    If he is underrated that is pretty good.... Could mean that he is better than the No.50 or 51 rank he is situated in

    Orbit is riding an ostrich and you can't see the beak/eyes because he has it turned towards him(Away from camera angle)

    QFT his pick and roll % will be absurd and his O-Reb rates with dribble penetration. Ariza will be shooting wiiiide open. This is all good

    McHale may not be a good X & O coach, but he should be quite good for a guy like Lawson.

    Unless he starts going on about how he played with a broken leg, so you should be able to stop drinking and partying.

    But I don't think it'll get to that. Typically McHale is harder on the rookies but goes easier on the star players or veterans.

    I loved this article. As HP said I especially loved the bit about him wanting to come here, not just because it means we're an attractive destination but because he in particular wanted to be here -- that he watched our team and saw himself fitting in and helping. That means a lot. This team can go all the way. I can't wait for the season to start.

    Correct a TRUE point guard with elite penetration skills (maybe a poor choice thanks to Orbit working over the ostrich) will make everyone's game easier. I look for Harden to raise his FG% by a decent percentage too. All the spot up shooters are going to get the ball quickly once the defense collapses. Inside guys will get lots of easy dunks.

    Hmmm. I thought the Finals MVP was a bench player.
