LOL. That's not true. There's much better basketball minds over here. That's why I asked. And if we can get a handle on what they're probably going to do THEN we can talk about a counter to their counter.
I hope they go smaller because LMA is NOT going to outplay Howard at the Center position...it just ain't happening and he's going to wear himself down doing that.
I think you're mistaking Harden with Lin, Harden was only on him about 3 times, one of them being an airball
No adjustment. You guys are thinking too much. The game would have went either way. If I was Portland I wouldn't adjust anything.
None? Look, Stotts knows we're going to run out the TTs again and he knows we are going to be running that short pick-and-roll with James and Dwight. If he's an NBA coach he'll make an adjustment offensively to free up LaMarcus and defensively to stymie the pick-and-roll action at the FT line.
