what? i thought luther changed the most...last season he was just really a spot up shooter who occasionally ran a baseline cut.... yesterday i think he spotted up twice to shoot rest of the time he kept driving the lane and cutting through the lane....probably the most drastic change from what i saw from the players on the floor in terms of his role. turnovers..though yeah he wasnt always the best passer a lot of the passes he made were really lazy passes that should be easily corrected.
When the offense was working at the beginning of the game it was such a beautiful sight.. The constant movement of players cutting to the basket.. It looked way better than JVG offense in which the players were standing around most of the time.. I like the starting 5 of last night's game.. They seem very comfortable with one another, we just need to work on our bench.. The talent's there just need to find the right combination!
I think all that movement really helped Yao get easy shots. It just seemed more effortless out there for him last night. Like he didn't have to work for every darn shot. Almost every spot became available to him. I also loved all the back-cutting by his teammates....it really makes Yao and Tmac's job SOOOOOOOOO much easier.
I do not think Head played very well. his defense's as bad as what he did last season yet and he's blocked twice at the same way, which shows he's lower basketball IQ than others. I think it's time to trade him for a tough big man. Either James or SF3 can play combo-guard and replace Head, I believe.
