    In the Spurs game I noticed (as I am sure most of you did) that there was one particular lineup that worked the Spurs over. It was Morris, Norris, Griffin, Yao Ming, and Francis. They were in the game when we came from behind and went up by ten. Once we blew that lead, Rudy put that lineup back in and they regained the lead and won the game for us. Now maybe it was matchups...but maybe not. Id like to see this combination on the floor a lot more, because they all seemed to work really well together and the offense and defense was just clicking whereas no other combos really did that. Forget about the egos...stick with what works.

    I agree, that squad worked really well together. Although I'm not a big Moochie backer, I think alot of this had to do with him starting to feel comfortable in the new system with Yao. On defense, that lineup down low is athletic and intimidating.
