    Harden = Plan A with plenty of offensive variety
    Paul = Plan B with plenty of offensive variety

    So far we have worked out pretty well in the playoffs, down year with Howard notwithstanding, infinitely better than the Yao-T-Mac era where we struggled just to get out of the first round.

    I get anxiety when Ariza has to put the ball on the floor.

    WTH do you call the PnR with Clint?!? Can't get much closer to the rim than an alley oop.

    Capela is getting pushed out of the paint by Green. Has to be an inside presence.

    I don't understand how MDA's is viewed as this great offensive genius, I really am not. It's so simple when all these morons just park outside and wait to shoot the three. We literally do zero beyond threes, and the rare ball to Capela / Nene.

    We can't switch Anderson onto Conley ...

    I don't have a lot of problems with what we've done offensively ... Just lots of bricks and butterfingers .

    But that defensive scheming worries me

    We have 33 points with 3:45 to go in the second. We should have scored that in the 1st quarter alone. SMDH

    What adjustment did MDA and Harden make against the Spurs? Nada.

    You can't just ignore the fact that if you're used to playing certain way for 82 games, that is going to get carried over to the playoffs. No team can suddenly reinvent themselves in a matter of weeks. That is why fans should be worried if this season turns out to be just more of the same.

    Meh for a fraction of the price, I am fine with Ariza having his occasional delusions of grandeur. Every now and then, a role player just can't resist the urge to try and go Kobe.
