    I don't know if we'll win this game, but we've seen some new things. Dare I say a little chemistry?

    Suddenly Yao decides to dunk the ball, Swift's ugly shot goes in, and we are leading!

    Swift needs to be paired with Yao.

    Biggest adjustment of the game... putting Swift on Brad Miller.

    Sacramento has no clue what to do on offense now.... I guess Kenny Thomas/Shareef just aren't in their game-plan enough to exploit the slower Yao one-on-one defense.

    swift just needs consistant minutes. he is a good passer, decent defender and post scorer.

    head and swift should start. this line up is usually our best. they're playing great right now and swift, head, yao, tmac might as well get used to playing together.

    Give credit to Luther Head. That guy is penetrating to the paint and creating opportunities for everyone else.

    And, notice how this is being done without Howard in the game. Shows how worthless Howard is.

    Damn you, you beat me to it! I was about to type the same EXACT thing.

    The NBA is all about matchups, and sometimes you have to adjust and match speed/agility with speed/agility, so good adjustment by JVG on that front (should've been sooner, but better late than never).

    Gotta give credit to Stromile...he's still doing some of the dumb things, but at least coming up with some big plays down the stretch.

    Head has been huge once again.

    It's because there young and they got a great amount of speed. older guys like wesley and anderson are way to slow.

    Eureka. We found our new starting lineup:

    Tmac
    Swift
    Yao
    Head
    DA/Wesley/Clutch the bear


    These guys are quick enough to keep up with the smaller lineups we seem to be facing every other game.
