we needn't look any further for guidance in the 2014-2015 season. a team around howard and harden can dominate. teams with HU$TLE and good ball movement = victory. big 4 is no guarantee. big 3 is no guarantee. big 2 is no guarantee. chemistry matters. selfless, hu$tle play from 8-10 players every night is what means victory. GO ROCKETS!
Pardon me for this, but no need to look that far back. The defending champion Spurs demonstrated this when they won the Finals in June over the Heatles.
WHAT! you mean running a stagnant, little to no ball movement offense, relying heavily on threes and layups and completely disregarding the mid range shot regardless if its the best available shot, and telling your team to play harder, won't win you a championship? i dont believe you!
Lol.... was thinking Spurs formula. "Bypass a good shot for a great shot" Heat defense was running a track meet.
reliable point guards who don't turn the ball over and get the ball to the big guy we didn't have that last year
The secret was of course, to have Olajuwon, get the ball to Olajuwon every trip down and then let Olajuwon challenge everything in the paint on the other end. but don't tell everyone, they all go get their own Olajuwon.
Sorry, nice try to get everybody pumped up but Dwight is not Hakeem and Harden is a perimeter player so cannot use that for comparison. Dumping it into Dwight and space the floor is not going to get us far, since Dwight does not have a solid go-to move that will work at least 70% of the time.
you need heroes Clutch City had many heroes, Dream had the most super powers <iframe width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/ED55KcYh1bY" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
MJ taught me it takes a superstar, plus the best player in the world, an overrated coach/motivational speaker, and some of the best three shooters, and you have a good team... Spurs taught me if you have the best coach in the world and the fountain of youth, nothing can stop the power of Tim Duncan... And Hakeem taught me that all you need is the Dream, baby.
Hakeem would have fouled out in the post in today's game despite his finesse game. Hakeem's approach is obsolete.
What makes you think Hakeem wasn't good enough to adjust to different styles. The dude had more moves than anyone. You are a joke and a troll sir.
